As I was building my online health & wellness business, while homeschooling our boys, I had to learn how to manage my time & my stress levels.
"Review, Bless, and Release - Stop Trying to Do All the Things"... became my mantra!
I became a millionaire and a big thing that helped me do so was by implementing these tips below!
Here's the deal... one of the main reasons why we are so much more stressed nowadays, is because we are taking on a lot more.
Many people today work a full-time job and possibly a side hustle as well. That means that your day-to-day things such as keeping house, helping your family/kids, shopping and errands still need to be done... but they've got to get done during your “off” hours.
It's virtually impossible to mentally clock out at the end of the workday. Especially as an entrepreneur, you may have a 9-5 plus a 24/7!
While you're building a side business, maybe you think you need to be reachable at all hours via text message or email.
Add to that the stress constant connectivity and social media creates and it’s no wonder people are more burnt out than ever.
It’s time to do something about it. It’s time to stop trying to do all the things all the time and focus on reducing stress in your life.
Start by reviewing everything you do in a given day. A great tool for this is a time log. Keep a simple piece of paper or a small notebook with you at all times. Set an alert on your phone to go off every 30 minutes (during waking hours), and quickly jot down what you’re doing.
Be brutally honest. No one else needs to see this log and you can burn it after you’re done. After a week of logging, you get a pretty good idea of where you spend your time and mental energy.
Now comes the fun part.
Look through your data and decide what you can let go of.
What can you stop doing?
What can you hire someone else to do, to get your time back?
Open up some time for yourself to exercise, meditate, or play.
Next it’s time to review and release all those worries, questions, and “should-dos” that are stressing you out.
Get out another sheet of paper or two and start to write down anything and everything on your mind. All the stuff you’ve been thinking about doing. All the stuff that’s been worrying you.
Get it all out.
Walk away for a few hours and then come back to your list.
Cross out as much as you can.
Things that are out of your control, mentally release.
Tasks you feel like you should do, that you don’t need to do.
Then rewrite what’s left on two different lists. One will be things you can do, or have someone else do for you. This will become your master to-do list for the next few months. The other is a list of worries, or concerns.
Notice how much smaller and shorter those lists are and how much lighter you feel just getting it all out of your head.
Last but not least, go burn that master brain dump list.
Doesn’t it feel good?!!!!
