Why Energy Matters

  I wonder if you can relate to this?  Although I’m pretty good at managing my physical and emotional well-being, the accumulated restrictions of the past 2 years did have an impact on my motivation levels.   Like many others, I missed travel, live events, attending workshops and face to face meetings.

All you can change is yourself

Sometimes we wish people and circumstances would just change!   But often the best approach is to change ourselves, as we can't control everything that happens externally.   What we believe and how we show up in business will affect the choices and decisions we make.   Which in turn will impact the results we want to achieve.   To get to a new or different level, we can consciously choose to change our thoughts, beliefs, actions and decisions, (if they're not working for us), to achieve a different outcome.  [...]

The best way to do this is to show up as the CEO and not the administrator. As the CEO your daily attention[...]

The benefits of journaling
