The balance of spontaneity and structure

 

Have you ever found yourself stuck, when trying to imagine what you want the future to be? You can’t quite see beyond where you currently are. What did you do about it? This was a thought Tanya Dalton experienced that led her to writing her best-selling book, On Purpose. 

 

When you think of the days where you feel the most empowered and creative, what did those days look like? What did and didn’t you get done? We have all been guilty of thinking that the only way we will reach our goals is by packing our days full of the steps we need to take to get to the finish line. Tanya Dalton joined me this week to break that myth. 

 

Each day, Tanya will sit and decide what she wants to do that day, what tasks she wants to get done, and any milestones she wants to reach, but what helps her decide what needs to get done? The way she feels that day. Ready to take back your day and start to feel the power of spontaneity? Grab a seat, get out your task list, and let’s learn about the power of balancing flexibility with your commitments.
