• Talking about the Work Won't DO the Work
    Nov 15 2024

    The only way to get the work done is to do it--not reading about it, talking about it, or researching about it. But these things make us feel like we're making progress on the work.

    Although planning and learning is necessary, it leads nowhere unless it's paired with action--small gritty steps every day that accumulate into success.

    In this episode, I give you questions to ask yourself to help you pinpoint any "fake work" you're getting stuck on to avoid the real work and habits to get into to take on the work you want/need to do.

  • Stop Trying to Impress People: Impress Yourself
    Sep 23 2024

    Everyone loves to be noticed and to feel the work they're doing is recognized and appreciated, right? But we need to stop and ask ourselves if that's the main reason we're doing things.

    When we continually seek external validation, we are essentially giving ourselves to others. We are doing things to impress them, but if we switch gears to do things for internal validation--to light up our values and purpose--our life feels drastically different.

    Praise and compliments are great, but they land better when we're running on all cylinders and we feel we're doing things for the right reasons. In other words, compliments are the icing on the cake, rather than the elusive goal we seek to find.
