Live Well Anyway

On today’s episode of the Live Well Anyway podcast, host MacKenzie Koppa is talking all about follow-through. We all like to plan, but all too often, we fail to actually follow the plan and do the things. MacKenzie shares some reasons you may struggle to do the things you plan to, as well as five strategies to follow through on your goals. Don’t forget to join the Fall Challenge to give you a hand in taking the first steps to follow-through.

Things that might be standing in the way of your follow-through:

• Your season

• Your time/availability

• Your motivation/desire

Strategies you can put in place to create more follow through on your plans and goals:

1. Create a streak.

2. Participate in a challenge.

3. Get involved with a group or partner.

4. Have someone be your “Accounta-bully.”

5. Hire a coach.

6. Bonus - Create social pressure for yourself.

Kitchen Idea List

On today’s episode of the Live Well Anyway podcast, host MacKenzie Koppa walks you through the steps to create a thorough brain dump that will relieve your sense of overwhelm and start you on the path to productivity. These are the key essentials for doing your best brain dump ever:

• Use categories and subcategories to help get everything out of your head and down on paper (or digitally).

• Nothing is too small to write down.

• Don't worry about it being messy.

• Write down everything that you are actively trying to remember, take care of, be responsible for, or that is draining your emotional energy.

• Use Trello to help convert your brain dump into an easy to access and update digital format.

• After your get all the things down on paper, evaluate all of your categories into "projects" and "mainstays" lists.

• Prioritize your lists and add how much time things will take to make them actionable.

If you want some group accountability and hand-holding for this process (and more!), join one of MacKenzie’s upcoming Live Well Planned Cohorts.
