In Part II of our meltdown Help! Let’s ask for help, let’s help other folks out. Don’t be afraid of the power of “HELP” For those seeking self-help techniques this is the show for you.

Word of the Week: Simplify

Simplifying how we do things makes our life easier – so why are we doing it. Let’s get it together people. This harkens back to our self-awareness word – if you are self-aware you’ll be able to identify areas in your life crying out for simplification.

05:17 – Just because you do things one way, doesn’t mean that has to define you or control how you approach life in the future. One way to do this is to take some time out to make a plan. You’ll save hours and perhaps days of frustration.06:57 – When you are transitioning from one project to the next – take some time in-between to reset and re-focus on the new task at hand. 08:02 – Find your stress relievers. Whether it be exercise or whatever it is. Dave W. highly recommends getting a Foam Roller as a quick way to relax, get the blood circulating, and it takes your mind off the burdens of the day. Take even a couple moments a day to take a deep breath and maybe a quick stretch.12:32 – It is way too easy to slip into your old habits. It happens so covertly it happens without us even being aware of it. 14:46 – Not only should you be planning ahead, you should plan for the unforeseen to knock you off your game. So, plan for it! If it takes you 5 days to finish a project, tell your client it’ll take you 6.15:27 – Before saying yes, think about how it will impact your plan. Saying “no” is okay and in some ways the best thing for you. 17:07 – Don’t focus on temporary fixes when long-term solutions are what’s needed. You need a long-term plan to avoid meltdowns. Remember Presentation Guy! Don’t be him. Instead of allowing ourselves to be overwhelmed, plan for these adversities even if you don’t know what they are. Instead of bashing our computer on the floor, pause, focus on a solution in the moment when something doesn’t go the way we want it to.
