Are you losing track of time? Do you wake up confused about whether it’s a weekday or a weekend? I’ve had several conversations in the past week or so and a lot of folks are finding it hard to keep a sense of time, after several weeks of this pandemic-restructured lifestyle we’ve been living.
Losing the structure of basic daily routines such as when we go to work, when the kids are at school, or when you go to the yoga studio for your class is disorienting. In this week’s video (it’s just a titch over 4 minutes long), I give you 3 tips you can use to create new structures for yourself to help you get more productive, grounded, and have a sense of accomplishment at the end of the day.
(For those of you who would like the Coles notes version of the video, the tips are Anchor – Act – Agree. More elaboration is in the video!)
One resource I share in the video that I want to be sure you know about is ish – The Problem with our Pursuit for Perfection and the Life-Changing Practice of Good Enough, written by my friend and colleague, Lynne Cazaly. For those of you struggling with taking action and make decisions because you want everything to be “perfect” first, this is a must read.
I’ve been creating these short videos now for a few weeks, and I really appreciate the feedback I’ve received from many of you! I plan to continue offering these going forward, and I want to make sure they are delivering great value to you. If there’s a topic or a challenge you’re facing that you’d like some perspective on, I’d love to hear from you.
