Let's talk abundance versus scarcity as we continue with mindset week. This is especially topical during this uncertain time when it is very easy to focus on what we lack instead of what we have. But that is why we need to work even harder to recognize the abundance we are blessed with, to proactively solve problems rather than negatively reacting, and lean into our strengths so we can work more productively and show up for our community.

Have you tried a morning routine because your favorite guru or a book suggested it? Were you successful? If you thought morning routines were a load of malarkey, I invite you to dig deeper into WHY you want or need one.

So often we just tackle a new habit without digging deep into how it could benefit us or improve our lives. But getting clear around our morning routine why can make it easier to rise and shine instead of hitting the snooze button again. And again. And again.

What's your response when I tell you to go eat a frog? What if I told you it was for your own good? To increase your productivity or ensure your child's work is complete? To make your day feel easier and less stressful as it progresses? That is why I want you eating the frog...but what does it mean?

Today we talk about how utilizing the Mark Twain quote "“If it’s your job to eat a frog, it’s best to do it first thing in the morning. And if it’s your job to eat two frogs, it’s best to eat the biggest one first.” Getting your priorities...the things you need to do but maybe don't want to do...out of the way first can make a huge shift in your productivity. Or in getting the truly important and urgent homework completed for your distance learning.
