Success Strategies to Guarantee your Level Up!
Routines, boundaries and planning oh my (I know I am a little extra)! But seriously, we need to implement all these elements to guarantee a level up in our life and businesses. I can honestly write a book about the importance of incorporating all three of these practices into your life but you know I am all about the quick points. Let’s break down each practice.
As I ALWAYS say, having a daily routine in your life will definitely help you alleviate the stress and overwhelm. You will be able to intentionally add things to your life that bring you joy and fill you up (makes your heart smile). By being intentional with your needs, you will be able to plan your days to ensure that all you daily needs are being met. Your daily routine is all about self-care and loving on yourself. You cannot pour into others if your cup is empty. If you need help with creating a daily routine, you can download my free routine + habit tracker below and get started today!
Boundaries! What are those in a house full of children, your significant other, parents and your fur baby? When my coach introduced me to boundaries, I felt totally uncomfortable. I mean one of my reasons for starting my own business was to be more present in the lives of my family, right? How was I supposed to shut them out doing my work day? Reluctantly, I did what I was told and set a work schedule. At the time is was 11:00am - 4:00pm Monday through Friday. I told them about my new schedule and that all my Apple products (yes, I had to clarify that I am an Apple addict) will be put on do not disturb between those hours. This was so hard because my children text me ALL day and my mom is ALWAYS on Facetime. I did it what I was instructed to do….AND HAVEN’T LOOKED BACK SINCE!!! Boundaries turned out to be the best thing I could have done for my business.
Last but certainly not least, PLANNING!!! We must plan to successfully achieve any goals we have in our lives. Planning has helped me be able to work on multiple projects at the same time and over deliver on them all (yes, a little personal pat on the back). When I first started my business, I was all over the place. I wanted to do EVERYTHING AT ONCE…NOW. As you can imagine or maybe you are going through the same thing and you know that… it did not work. I knew I could not continue to do the same thing and expect to have the business of my dreams but didn’t know how to change. I needed a strategy and some accountability. I wrote out my immediate goals and hired a coach for accountability (the investment in my coach was priceless). Now, I can effectively plan in my sleep…literally (all my ideas come when my house is quiet at night)! I created a goal setting workbook that outlines exactly how I set measurable goals to ensure that I am able to achieve them.
