You make plans, set goals - then life throws something at you that you weren't expecting. This happened to me Sunday: ?? ?????????????? ???? ???????? ???????? ?????????????? ?? ???????? ???? ??????????. (???????? ????????’?? ?? ???????????? ???????? - ???? ?????? ?? 800-?????????? ?????????????????????? ???????????? ????????!) ?? Although my back is getting better, I’ve slept poorly the last few nights - and I am FEELING it, friends! But rather than ?? rail against the injury and how it's messed up my schedule... ?? or beat myself up for doing that to myself... I’m dealing with reality: ???? ???????? ?????????? ???????? ?????? ????????????????. And trying to keep to the same schedule will NOT allow that to happen. (If anything, it will make things WORSE.) So this morning, I looked at my schedule for today so I could decide how to move forward. I did this using what I call "The Six D's": ????, ????????????????, ?????????????????? (??????????????), ??????????, ???????????? (???????? ????????), ???? ????????????. These are the options we ALL have for anything on our lists. ??????????????, ???? ???????? ???? ???????????? ?????? ???????? ???????? ?????????????? ?????? ?????????????? ???? ???????????????? ?????? ???????? ???????????? ???????????? ???? ???????????? ??: ???? ???? ???? ??????. There were things I definitely wanted to DO . But to do them, I needed to use my other five D's. Here's what I decided. 1. ?? ???????????????? ???????????????????? ?? ???????? ???????????????? ?????? ?? ?????? ???????????? ?????????????? ??????????’?? ????????. ??? ???I was scared at first to do it because I thought it would make me look like a slacker, but my husband Bill Hansley, MHA (who knows the person) pointed out that they would likely be ok with waiting. ??? ???Bill was right: when I emailed my new client to say that I'd like until next Wednesday to get them the proposal because my week was tight and I wanted to make sure I did the best job I could on the proposal, they said, “Certainly!” ??? 2. ?? ?????????????? ???? ?????????? ?????? ???? ???????????????? ??????????. ??? ???I was sad to do it (Women’s Mastermind led by Maria Copp, Karen Atiles, ICF PCC, Ami DePierro, and Kellie L. Bradley), but it was the right thing to do under the circumstances. ???????????? ????????: There’s always unexpected things that happen. Don’t fight that reality. Assess what’s so, and what you need. ???????? ?????????????????????????? ????????????: ????, ????????????????, ??????????????????, ??????????, ????????????, ???? ????????????? ??

???????? ???? ???????? ????????'?? ???????????? ???????????? ?????????????? ???? ????% ???? ???????? ?????? ???????????

Teams are working well together and individual team meetings are helping to build good relationships." 4?? ???????????? ?????????????????????????? ????????????

They provide real life experiences that are relatable and encourage group/individual interaction in a safe place." 5?? ?????????? ?????????? ???????????? ???????? ???????? "I'm more equipped to manage my stress and that it's ok... I feel like I have a tool kit now." ?? This isn't just about feeling good – it's about business results: ? Teams that communicate better catch problems earlier ? People who manage stress make smarter decisions ? Organizations with psychological safety innovate faster ??

Let's talk about how I can get your organization these same results. #StressManagement #TeamPerformance #WorkplaceCulture #SmartStressSolutions #PsychologicalSafety #TeamCommunication #ProjectManagement --- P.S.

???????????? ?????????????? ??????: The questions you ask yourself impact your stress and your ability to accomplish your goals. Why? Because the brain cannot help but answer questions. And when we ask awful questions - we get awful answers. ???? ?????? ???????? ?????? ???????????????? ?????????? ?????????? ???? ??????????????????? 1) "What do I have to get done today?" 2) "How am I going to get it done?" 3) "Why am I so behind?" ???????????? ?????? ?????????? ?????????????????? ???????????? ?????????????? ?????????????? - ?????? ?????????????? ????????????????: 1) Question 1 results in a laundry list of things, and you end up feeling stress. ?????? ???????????????? ?????? ???????????????????? ???????? ??????????????! 2) Question 2 results in no answer - ???????? ?? ?????????? ???? ?????????????????? ?????? ??????????. 3) Question 3 results in answers that either blame ourselves or others. ?????????? ???? ?????? ???????????? - ?????? ???? ????????????, ??????????. ?????? ?????????? ?????????????????? ??????????????: 1) ????????'?? ?????? ?????????? ??'?? ?????????? ???? ???????????? ????????????????????????? This helps your brain find proof that you're capable - and when you celebrate yourself, you are less stressed and get more done! 2) ????????'?? ?????? ?????????? ?? ?????????? ???????? ???? ???????????????? ??????????, ?????? ??????? Notice that it's not a "have to" and that it's a specific number. It's a less triggering question that your brain can answer. 3) ????????'?? ?????? ?????????? ?? ?????? ???????????? ???????????????? ???? ???????????? ?????? ???? ????-???? ????????? This helps you pause the stress spiral and gives you back power to CHOOSE what you do - versus reacting to unconscious beliefs that I "have" to do everything. ???? ?? ????????????????: Notice the questions you ask yourself - and change them if they don't serve you. Do this, and you'll not only stress less - you'll get more of what matters DONE. ?? Share if you find this valuable. #MondayMotivation #SelfAwareness #StressManagement --- P.S.

Do you ever have one of those days (weeks? months?) where you feel behind? ?? I have a quick solution: ?????????????????? ???????? ?????? ???????? ???????? ?? ?????????????????? - ???????? ???????????? ?????? ??????'???? ?????????? ???? ?????? ????????. Your three resources are: 1) Time ??? 2) Energy ?? 3) Money ?? EXAMPLE: I'm working on changing my domain from lifecoachsusie to susiehansley.

Except... now I'm behind schedule, and it's looking much harder to do than I thought it would be. ?? Normally, that would stress me out. ????????'?? ?????????? ?????????????? ???? ?????????????????? ?????????? ???? ???????????? ????????. 1) ????????? ?? ???????? ???????? ???? ????.

Whenever you’re overwhelmed by things beyond your control, ask yourself one question: ?? What is one small thing I can do right now? This is an important question to ask ourselves - both when we're trying to achieve goals AND when we're challenged by circumstances outside of our control. Sometimes that small thing is: ?? Turning off the news ?? Connecting with a friend ?? Donating money to a worthy cause You can make more of an impact than you think just by taking one tiny step. Nothing is more powerful than a bunch of committed people taking tiny steps together. ---------- ?? What’s one small thing you can do right now?

Still smiling from my talk about "How to Stress Less and Achieve Your Goals" on Tuesday with the Rebel Women's Social Club. Thank you Nicole Guernsey for asking me to speak! As founder of this great Raleigh women's networking group, you've built something really special. The best part? Seeing people's faces light up when they learned their stress isn't their fault - and that there are easy ways to work WITH it! ?? Here's what people said: ? "Educational and enlightening." ? "Great reminders to be aware of our stress, name it, feel it, and then do the darn thing!" ? "Exactly what I needed today. The gift I didn't expect." When we understand our body's stress signals, we can move from just surviving to?thriving. Thank you to everyone who came - you made the session so lively and meaningful. Can't wait to see you at future Rebel Women events! #StressManagement #ProfessionalDevelopment #Wellness
