Are you a workaholic who is constantly hammering at the brick wall of your business, hoping for it to break or to find a way over it?
Is your goal to keep working until you hit certain milestones – more money, more time, a bigger team, or a significant passive income from network marketing?
If yes, then you’re much like we were, but what we found was that we were robbing ourselves of the joy of the present.
Being too caught up in the future or the past means that we forget about the present.
Many people say the present is a gift because it’s essential to find joy in the journey.
Here is how you can do that without burning out.
The Problem with Multitasking
Let’s address the issue of multitasking.
We were proud of our ability to juggle multiple tasks simultaneously, from conducting live videos to cooking dinner.
However, multitasking is detrimental to your health and productivity.
When you multitask, your body releases cortisol, creating a safe haven for unwanted diseases.
It also diverts your attention from the task at hand, preventing you from being fully present and appreciating the joy in what you’re doing now.
To break free from the chains of multitasking, start by time blocking.
Use a Google Calendar, a paper calendar, or even a specialized planner, like our 90 Day Success Activator.
The idea is to assign specific time slots for different tasks.
The key lies in first scheduling what’s non-negotiable, like your job that’s paying the bills.
Prioritizing What is Important
You need to prioritize self-care.
Much like the airplane safety protocol of securing your oxygen mask before helping others, you need to look after your well-being first.
Whether it’s through meditation, prayer, journaling, or working out, ensure you have enough ‘me time’.
You also need to focus on family.
It’s a common misstep to neglect family in the race to build a successful business.
If you don’t give your family due importance, you might end up with nobody to enjoy your business success with.
So, remember the order – you, your family, and then your business.
Have a Schedule
Now that you’ve allocated time for yourself and your family, the next thing to schedule is your business-related tasks.
Identify pockets of free time in your schedule where you can work on your business, like a half an hour lunch break.
Instead of mindlessly scrolling through social media, use this time to build your business – prospect, follow-up, create a quick reel or conduct a live video session.
Life is unpredictable, and so it’s important to incorporate some flexibility into your schedule.
This flex time acts as a buffer for any unexpected events or tasks that may come up.
Lastly, remember to schedule what brings you joy.
Be it working out, gardening, spending time with your pets, or a date night, include them in your schedule.
The Importance of Evaluation
It’s crucial to evaluate your day – what worked and what didn’t in your business, personal, and family life.
Focusing on the positive aspects first helps keep you motivated and involved in your business.
However, recognizing what didn’t work allows you to identify areas of improvement.
Then, you can strategize about what can be done to change what didn’t work.
Remember, the journey to building your business doesn’t have to be exhausting and joyless.
