All we need is a little “me” time
February 16, 2010
Think back for a second and ask yourself “When is the last time I was able to take a walk, or admire my surroundings?” Better yet, ask yourself “When is the last time I was able to do something I wanted to do without having to worry if something else needed my immediate attention?”
Days have a habit of getting complicated, especially when you only have 24 hours to handle everything on your task list. Rather than feeling overwhelmed and like a one (wo)man band, why not try outsourcing your tasks?
For every challenge there is always a solution, we’re here to help!
Never feel guilty for wanting a little “you” time! Do not ever doubt for a second that you don’t deserve it. Learn to delegate tasks, whether it might be blogging, research, organizing emails and contacts, etc. Consult with a virtual assistant to find out which tasks you might be able to take off you plate so you can take that extra time out of your day to recuperate, even if it’s only for an extra 15 minutes.
What would you do with a few extra “me” hours per week?
Fearless, Determined, and Hitting Your Goals
September 29, 2009
When you were younger you would strive to take your very first step and would do anything to make sure that it happened. No matter how many times you’ve fallen or on your behind and stumbled into things, sometimes bruising yourself.. you managed to brush off the pain and get right back on track. You refused to be defeated, you were unstoppable, you were on a mission, and nothing was going to get in your way.
Looking back and reminiscing at your accomplishments, do you feel as if you are that same person? Do you still believe that nothing is unattainable? Somewhere down the road we’ve lost our insight and imagination that anything is possible and that the only way for anything to be achievable is if self doubt doesn’t get in the way.
When did the word “can’t” become so strong, and believable?
When you were younger if someone said that you couldn’t do something, you made sure to prove them other wise, right? What happened?
It all starts with a vision. Are you willing to challenge that vision and making it into your reality, or will you feed into negativity and brush your dreams aside? Ask yourself, “What is my I.Q level?” What will make you throw in the towel, how dedicated are you to fighting your way through obstacles to reach the outcome that you desire? Define what it will take for you to reach your “I quit” point and figure out ways to tackle and avoid those challenges before they arrive.
Whatever your dream and mission is I applaud you, I challenge you to do whatever it takes to make that happen. Keep your eyes on the goal and stay focused. When in doubt seek guidance, someone who you know that will cheer you on and give you the necessary support for you to stay on track. Always remember why it is that you are jumping through these hoops.
Anything, and I mean anything that you put your mind to, you can do it. No matter what anyone says, no matter how impossible or unreasonable your goal may seem to others- achieve them, and not for anyone other then yourself.
