The #1 thing I hear in my coaching sessions right now: I'm overwhelmed by everything I need to get done and I can't make progress towards my big goals.
Here's what I tell them ⬇️
There are 2 traps we all fall into:
🛑 The Significance Trap: thinking everything carries importance
🛑 The Urgency Trap: thinking everything needs to be done now
If everything is significant and urgent: NOTHING is.
Steal my 2-2-2 Framework:
1. TWO DO
Select 2 big projects you want to accomplish today to move YOUR goals forward.
ex: an outline for a new product.
ex: finding 10 topics to write about.
ex: creating a deck
1. Fear of failure: if you expect to succeed at a task, you are more motivated to do it. The harder or more complex the task, the more likely you are to procrastinate.
2. Low value: The more you value a task, the more likely you are to do it.
When we procrastinate, it’s actually a sign that we may not see the correlation between the task and our larger goals and values.
3. Immediate gratification: we prefer to feel better now even if it means feeling worse later.
