You've probably heard the advice before to be proactive rather than reactive. It's really a no brainer. It's much easier to prepare than to repair. And yet, it's easier said than done. "Emergencies," crop up (that could be prevented), people hijack your time (and keep you from the work you want to focus on), and then there's your own personal challenges to stay organized and focused (sometimes we're our own worst enemies smh). So in on today's episode, I'm going to walk you through the hidden reasons why being proactive is so hard, and give you some practical strategies you can use to be proactive and set yourself up for success this school year #LikeABuilder.
