You’re overwhelmed with all that’s required of you in a day. You started your business because you love the industry, flexibility, and helping people, but now you’re burnt out “running the business” and no longer doing all the creative parts you love.
Then there is home life. Everything revolves around you being present and “doing it all.” You’re doing the survival dance in all aspects and it’s starting to sabotage your well-being.
You know you probably need to stop and figure out some better ways to get things done, but you don’t have time to stop. You pray if you just keep going, it will let up and work itself out. But you know that’s a lie you’re just telling yourself.
Friend, it’s time to get to the root of things, to reassess. If you don’t take time now, you may sink (or explode). And that doesn’t help anyone!
WHAT DO YOU NEED TO CHANGE?
If you don’t take time to readjust, you risk:
- missing special events and occasions
- damaging relationships
- losing out on potential income
- wasting time and money
- mixing up priorities
- feeling bad about your health and body
- losing items and being late
- disappointing others
- feeling anxious all the time
- not meeting your own expectations
- I’ll stop here…
You need better ways of doing things so the work can flow easily. You need to assess priorities so you are spending time in the best places. You need to breathe and know things can operate without your hands having to touch each task.
Whether at home or work, you can’t control and manage everything – you can, but it’s at the expense of you. Most things weigh on YOU doing them, but it’s time for transformation.
THERE ARE SOLUTIONS!
Now, I wish I could offer fairies who can come and do your work and lift the burden (that would be pretty amazing, if I could), but I can offer you hope and peace of mind! And methods, processes, schedules, workflow, and triggers to put in place to be sure all gets accomplished. Plus, you can be sure it’s all adapted to your way of doing things. You will know your strengths and priorities and build concepts that work for your real life. They are easy to maintain and life changing ideas to make your business run smoother and your days lighter.
INITIAL STEPS TO TAKE:
Here are some simple tips to get started. Make ONE adjustment starting today.
- make a focus list for each day’s tasks (no more than 4 items)
- implement a consistent method for doing one daily task

SUMMARY = you want to do it all and you feel like you should be able to do it all. But deep down know that you are losing parts of yourself by trying to keep swimming up stream.
AND IF YOU DON'T TAKE TIME FOR CHANGE?
Your level of physical and mental effort is in the balance. Your well-being will begin to fade (if it hasn’t already). You need time for self-care, to pay attention to priorities, and to enjoy the people around you.
