Shoremates,

In today's episode we cover Dr. Stephen Covey's 4 quadrant system, and tips for making decisions. 

1. Think about everything you are doing.  Which quadrant do they fall into?  For the quadrant 3 and 4 activities, think about how you can get rid of them and for the one activities, after you’re finished with them how can you turn it into something you can make a quadrant 2 activity.  An example for this is if you failed to get an oil change and so you had to replace the engine, you’d ensure you did oil changes.  Or if you didnt take care of your health and you ended up at the hospital, you’d focus on your health. 
2. What is a big decision you’re facing right now, that you don’t know what the right thing to do is?
3. Think about options you have for question number 2.  Get in a quiet place, take a few deep breaths, and allow yourself to think creatively about other ways to solve that problem. 

Shoremates, I hope that this episode was valuable to you. Each book we choose has to have the potential to change your life in a positive way, and I highly recommend adding this book to your bookshelf.  There has been something else I’ve been working on to give you for free, and hopefully over the next couple of days we’ll be able to give you more information and release this product that can add even more value to your life. 

Always, always remember.  You’ve got this.
