“I?have freed up 10 hours a week in my diary, I am enjoying my downtime and no longer check emails or work of an evening or at the weekend. It's weird, by taking more time out for myself, I have become much more productive at work."? Director at Multinational Company.
??? Top Tip of the Week
?
Learn to set boundaries and say NO.? ?
??
Our outside world is a direct reflection of what is going on inside us. To?change the outside, we’ve got to change our inside first. You cannot blame someone else for overstepping your boundaries if you go along with it. And that includes you overstepping your own boundaries by?asking too much of yourself. ? You have to take responsibility for your time. ? For example:
So, why is that so difficult? Well, in short… We tend to look for validation outside of ourselves. We seem to have a need to ‘prove’ ourselves, to prove that we are worthy?at work with the team, the boss, our colleagues. At home with our partners, kids, friends and so on. ? We are worried, especially at work, that if we say 'no' we are not a team player/we might not get that promotion/we think we might even lose our job.?NOT TRUE! A number of my ‘employed’ clients dropped to 4 days a week and still got promoted. My business owner clients dropped their working day to 5 or 6 hours and grew their business significantly. ? Unless you value your time, no one else will either. One of the first things I help my clients with is recognising and appreciating their own value. To realise they and their wellbeing are super important. For themselves and for the people in their life. ? Once you value yourself and your time, it becomes easy and natural to set your boundaries. And guess what??Everyone else around you will fall in line! And guess another?what??You’ll be way more focused in your working hours, so?you'll get much more done in a shorter amount of time. ?

Super important to surround ourselves with likeminded people. We are the average of the 5?people we hang around with most. If you hang around with 5 criminals, you’ll be the 6th If you hang around with 5 close minded people, you’ll be the 6th If you hang around with 5 successful people, you’ll be the 6th You get the gist! ? Who are you hanging around with? ??

?? Your quest for the next two weeks (& beyond)...
?
Value yourself! ? Every day:
- Write down 3 things you appreciate about yourself. - Write down 3 things you are good at. -?Write down 3 things you did that made a positive difference. - Every day do 1 thing that needs to be done, 1 thing for someone else and 1 thing for yourself.
Do it for a week and watch what happens. Then keep doing it!
