I'm not in the mood for this...

Ever wake up not in the mood...for whatever's on your to-do list today? I do...you probably do...and the truth is ๐ That person you desperately wish you could magically tranform into does too (yep...all of 'em) What do you normally do when you're just not feeling it? ๐ Try to force yourself? I've tested all of these...thoroughly ๐ They don't help me get anything useful done. But...maybe you're different? I'd love to know! ๐(hit reply + spill...please) The first thing I check into is "Why is this thing on my to-do list?" I know...it sounds unnecessary but it's more important than you may realize...because ๐ Why is where your motivation comes from (and you care deeply about what matters to you) Think about all the times you've done impossible amounts of work... Go back and look at why you were willing to grind and hustle (for whatever...not necessarily work-related stuff). That stuff is potent. The more you know about what gets your butt in gear is powerful stuff (especially if it still matters to you now) Does it connect with anything on your to-do list today? Your to-do list may not be synced up with your biggest motivators (and maybe it's time to adjust it to what really matters to you a little more) Sometimes it just requires a small adjustment. If you're feeling the "meh" allll the time...you may need to make a slightly larger adjustment (maybe even a small pivot). Can you add a new skill or a new way to provide your current skills in your job or business? What would get you excited about your to-do list right now? ๐ฅ IMPORTANT ๐ฅ What do you want to learn more about? I've got decades of experience but I'm not a mind reader...so share what's bugging you or you're curious about! ๐ Always from the ๐ |

Does it look like I'm just writing about what grinds my confidence into dust? ๐ It's true...but also I hear this sentiment from LOTS of people! Side note - People with serious soft + hard skills say this to themselves (although it's usually about their highly-lucrative soft skills) You may think your hard skills (like web design, proofreading, bookkeeping, graphic design, copywriting, etc) are the big important skills. They are....but it's your soft (and usually invisible to you) skills that...
This week I've felt a little deflated (and doubting my abilities about projects I'm working on) It reminded me of a time when I desperately wanted to upgrade my life and business in every way... ๐ More money๐ Exciting projects๐ Fun-to-work-with clients + collaborators๐ And a work schedule with more free time And I really wasn't sure it was possible back then. ๐ If you're just starting out + looking for your next career or business adventure, you might feel even more uncertain about your...
