Multitasking is Slow You Down Wouldn’t it be great if you could create more time in your day without giving anything up?   The secret is how you prioritize the projects that are already on your plate. That requires a simple understanding: 1) Working on multiple products simultaneously only delays completing all the projects. 2) When you complete a product, not only is it off your plate, it begins producing your expected results. It also frees up time to move on to your next project. The next time that you are trying to find more time ask - “What can I finish right now that will give me more time tomorrow - and every day after that?” Working on multiple projects simultaneously only delays the completion of all projects. Pick one. You will love how you have so much more time in your day. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Why You Must Live Your Best Life Now A few years ago, I heard that Super Markets were considering changing expiration dates on food. They replaced it with "Best if Used By."  Maybe you should treat your life the same? I've long known that everything has an expiration date. Nothing goes on forever. Everything will come to an end. What's good may become not so-good.  What's bad may become great.  Life will be born; life will die.  This incredible ebb and flow is just the way of the Universe. Change in life is inevitable and always lurking around the corner. To me, making the best of what you've been given - right now - makes a lot of sense. What's your "Best if Used By" date?

How to Ask For What You Want Have you ever noticed how nobody gets to the point these days?  It seems like everybody is beating around the bush instead of asking for what they want. I have news for you.  People can't read your mind. If you want something, you will have to ask for it. But it's not all about you. Before I continue, I have a warning.

Now, a three-step formula to making it happen: 1) Come right out and ask for what you want. 2) Tell them how helping YOU will benefit THEM. 3) Tell them what to do next.

Why Out of The Box Thinking Doesn't Always Work Getting things done in today's crazy world is complex.  While most techniques are still very valid - the rules have changed for just about everything.  Does that mean you must get out of your box and think differently? Maybe, but there are other choices: You can stay IN your box and keep using the thoughts and actions that have served you. That’s good, but you'll also be out on anything that requires fresh thinking. You can toss out the old entirely and step OUT of your box where everything is new. That sounds scary. The better choice might just be to get rid of your box.  When you think about it, most of what makes today's progress so exciting is that almost everything you need to improve your life is built on your past. Staying IN your comfort zone while you expand to things OUT of your comfort zone is a winning solution. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

How to Easily Change Your Identity Have you allowed yourself to become the person you are on the inside?  We all make decisions that change our life trajectory without much thought. That can lead to feelings of being lost on you your life path. Maybe it's time to create a new way of seeing yourself. Using a Transitional Identity is a great way to feel confident when you can't believe in your future.  The trick is to focus on the smaller steps to your destination.

All I have to do is keep moving." "I'm a great student. Very soon, I will be a great teacher to others. All I have to do is keep moving." "I'm incredible at losing 1 pound at a time. Soon I'll hit my goal and weigh 100 pounds less. All I have to do is keep moving." Transitional Identities are temporary and ever-changing. They are helpful when destinations are hard to

Finding Your Purpose Do you know your purpose in life?  What a great feeling!  But what if you know your purpose but can't get yourself to take action toward your goal?  No, you're not procrastinating. It could be that you're just busy with minute-by-minute life.  If you want to change, try this: 1) Slow down and get real. Running faster will only distract you from your purpose even further. Be brave and accept what you want.  2) Forget any limitations floating around in your mind. After all, they'll probably not be good ones anyway. Toss out fear of consequences for your actions too. 3) Accept where you are in your life today. Start there and move forward.

Build Connections With Desire Not a day passes by without someone asking, "How do I get another person to help me get what I want?" Persuading others is one of the keys to getting what you want - and here's the big secret; it's NOT about you! Most folks tell others what to do. That's rarely building a real connection. You'll get what you want faster by focusing on how you can tap into the desire of others and help them get what they want. A more practical solution is to show them what needs to be done to reach their desire.  It gets more powerful. Why not offer to help them reach their goal? Could you do it for them? That's how you genuinely tap into desire. When you follow this approach, you will make friends prove your value and are much more likely to have your favor returned. Do good first.

Abraham’s Hierarchy of Needs Your best life is built sequentially, one level at a time. Forget the elevator. Climb all the stairs to the top, and you’ll have lasting success. In 1954, Abraham Maslow released Motivation and Personality. His Hierarchy of needs theory is all about climbing to the top. Maslow suggested that to reach your full potential: 1) You must provide for your physiological needs. Food, clothing, shelter, money, and more.  2) You must feel safe. Personally, emotionally, financially, health and well-being, and against accidents and illness. 3) Socially, you need to feel love and belonging.  4) Esteem and the desire for acceptance, respect, and value by others is your next step. Self-actualization requires mastery of your previous needs. Maslow said, “What a man can be, he must be.” 5) Self-transcendence removes you from your ego and begins your focus on the greater good.

Eliminate Your Limitations What if your life had no limitations and no consequences? What if you could do anything you wanted without anything holding you back? Here’s the truth. Personal limitations and consequences are helpful. Think of them as guard rails alongside a curvy mountain road. They keep you safe while you are on your journey.  What if you find playing it too safe and holding yourself back from your dreams? Another way is to consider it part of your internal belief and value system. You may need to expand through different experiences.  In other words - Take baby steps until you gain confidence and believe anything is possible. Then prove it yourself.

Are You The Monkey in The Middle? Have you ever found yourself stuck in the middle? I was speaking with a client trying to be everything to everybody. His business was not growing. His life was not happy. He couldn’t seem to find a way to make progress.   That’s when I said… “My friend, you are stuck in the middle. Nothing good happens when you are in the middle.” In business and life, having low expectations and being surrounded by like-minded folks is okay.  It’s also okay to reach for your dreams, has high expectations, and expect that of others. What happens if you’re in the middle? When low and high expectations combine, confusion is the result. Mediocrity overtakes quality. Frustration will be your daily friend. The choice is yours. If I were you, I would make the decision never to get stuck in the middle. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
