Want a jolt of good, clean energy?
Make a decision.
Not a plan. An actual decision.
Think about it. Think about all the unmade decisions laying around your home, head, and life:
- Unopened mail
- Clothes with tags still on
- Calendars without scheduling rules that end up booked all willy-nilly (technical term)
- The number of clients you’ll consider fully booked
- If you’re trying to “get healthy” or focus on other things
ALL ARE DECISIONS. Hanging around.
So here’s your homework, should you choose to accept:
- Grab a pen and piece of scrap paper
- Sit down and set your timer for 10 minutes
- Hit start and write down every unmade decision in your life
- Reach for more… Keep going… Look around and let your home spark some memories.
- Think about your weekly schedule and let it spark some memories of unmade decisions.
- Think about your New Year’s Resolutions, Annual Goals, Quarterly Goals – what is just sitting there WAITING for you to choose to make up your mind.
- DING! Your timer went off – good for you. If you need to keep going, do so. If you’re done, move on.
- Set your timer for another 10 minutes.
- On a clean sheet of paper look at each thing one at a time and do the following:
- Decide now that you’re going to:
- Do it.
- Delegate it.
- Delete it.
- Decide now that you’re going to:
- For all the stuff you’re going to DO, put it in your calendar so you actually do it.
- For all the stuff you’re going to DELEGATE, decide what the first step of that is and do it. Email the person and hand it off!
- For the things you’re going to DELETE, ask yourself “what needs to happen for me to truly delete this from my mind/life/home?” and either do that or put it in your calendar to do what you need to do.
You feel that?!
That’s momentum.
Keep it going!
