Productivity Tip - Get Clarity
It's very important to rise above the day to day to remind yourself of the bigger picture and to make sure you're moving in the right direction.
Have a Plan
Starting your day with a plan can help you focus on what needs to get done, minimize distractions and puts your personal needs on the agenda.
Focus Is A Skill
We need to consider our ability to focus as a skill or a muscle to be developed and that requires practice and discipline to improve. And like going to the gym to workout our bodies, we need to create a space that encourages focus.

Life Lessons: The Power of Word

Developing Resilience in a Volatile World
When we live our lives from our Leader Within we can respond to the volatility and uncertainty of life with creativity and resourcefulness. It's from here resilience becomes much more than a way to cope, it's a way of life.
Building Resilience
It goes without saying that we’re living in unusually stressful times. Most of us have not experienced the magnitude of disruption or uncertainty we are seeing these days - mostly because of a simple virus.
Let’s not forget we had high levels of stress before the pandemic. And it will continue to be so once we’re safely in the clear. Mainly because the lives we’ve created for ourselves continuously demands more of us, not less. I could go onto a tangent about the sustainability of how we work - but I’ll save that for another time.
Journal Exercise - Where are you?
You wouldn't plan a trip without knowing what it is you want, where you want to go, and how you're going to get there. Yet, we go about our daily lives just like that. Should it be any surprise how many of us feel stuck, frustrated, confused, or unfulfilled? As you begin your development journey, the Wheel of Life can help you to know where you are now.
