Are you "working hard" but not getting what you want?

The old adage goes "how do you get to Carnegie Hall?"

Practice, practice, practice. 

But, _what_ you practice is as important as how (much) you practice.

If you're not making progress you may be expecting that hard work alone is sufficient.  Or, working hard at the wrong things to avoid doing the hard things.  Listen in to find out the distinction...

Habits.  What we repeatedly (don't) do, determines who we become.

While many would have you believe that habits are only of the active sort, I'd have you consider that not doing something is also a habit.

I was in the habit of consistently publishing episodes of this podcast.   Then I wasn't.

But, instead of looking at it as "not being in the habit", which doesn't seem that challenging, looking at it as "in the habit of not podcasting", we can see the true dangers of skipping; loss of positive momentum and the creation of negative momentum.

Momentum is critical, thus we must course-correct ASAP.

What's a dumbass question?

"I want to make $22/hr after taxes.  Is that doable?"

Our nanny candidate asked me...    I have no way of knowing your situation on deductions etc and am not an accountant so have no basis to determine what your after-tax pay would be.

"Here's what I did.  Thoughts?"  (or "any feedback?")    Posted in a business forum.

Look, if this is the best type of question you can ask.  YOU DON'T DESERVE A RESPONSE, MUCH LESS AN ANSWER."

You want help?  You want to move your life forward?  Ask quality questions that are clear, specific and answerable in the context you're asking them.

My emotional impulses are rarely going to move me forward in the direction I want.  Rather, they typically inflame the situation.

On the other hand, if I can listen to my instincts - about what's really going on - I can at least avoid making things worse.

And, if I'm willing to listen for intuition - that which comes from the deepest part of my knowing or even from something greater than and beyond myself - that's when I have an opportunity to resolve the core of the situation and take a large stride forward in my life.

Commitment without awareness begets rigidity and will eventually cause us to run into a wall.

Take a look across the areas of your life.  In each one, how would you rate your balance of commitment to your desired outcomes and your awarenss of the feedback you're getting in that area _and others_.   Are you 110% committed to your business at the cost of your family relationships?

Adjust now...BEFORE you hit the wall!

When I'm willing to question what I "know", I can learn so much from my 2.5 year old.

What might you unlearn to that will improve your life?

Clarity is not an endpoint.  Like our windows, we get a bit hazy each day.  Unlike our windows, we are bombarded and it happens way faster.

Find a practice that works for you and maintain your clarity

Priorities don't exist.  A priority is real.  Priorities is delusion.  Just like multi-tasking.  You have one.  Then when your priority is handled.  NOW you have a new priority.  Just because you can make it plural doesn't mean it's real or constructive.

Stop lieing to yourself with 37 item to-do lists with 5 "top priorities".  You have _A_ priority.  Handle that, anything else is gravy and I bet it'll still feel like a better day then when you got done 22 meaningless things that didn't move the needle.
