To say the past few weeks have been different is an understatement, one thing I have really missed the most is connecting with others, friends, associates, clients et al.
As humans, we are designed to be connected with others, both on a physical and energetic level. It’s ingrained into our being.
…I’ve done a lot of personal development work over the years, to be honest, I am pretty much obsessed with it.
Even when I was in my teens when it was more commonly referred to as “self-help” and people were more likely to make fun of me for it than think I was doing something good to improve myself.
…It seems like only yesterday there was a big push in the media and amongst celebrities to talk about, and do something about mental health and wellbeing.
When New Zealand went into lockdown on the 25th March there were an estimated 2.6 billion people in lockdown around the world, it’s probably more now.
…We truly are living in unprecedented times. We’ve all been affected differently by current world events, but one thing is for sure that we’ve certainly all been affected in one way or another.
Whether you believe that lockdown measures are absolutely necessary or that it’s the biggest overreaction to a problem in the history of mankind… this is the situation that we’re in, so we may as well make the best of it.
…We’re living in a time where things are changing so fast, it seems like a month of events are being jammed into each day. Everything seems so uncertain, and the only peek into the future we have is to see how other countries a little ahead of us in time are faring. All of the uncertainty can be quite hard to deal with.
And yet, the number one ability that humans have over any other species is a very key one that we can use to our advantage – our ability to adapt to new situations… any situation! This ability is unrivalled, all we need to do is activate it.
…I don’t know about you, but I am fatigued from hearing about Coronavirus and it hasn’t even taken hold in New Zealand yet.
Every social media channel, almost every post, it’s there.
…I’ve been doing a lot of introspective work recently which has helped me progress in lots of different areas, both mental and in my physical reality.
As part of this work, I’ve been thinking about who I actually am, what are my fundamentals, my foundations, my building blocks and my non-negotiables that define who I am.
…Three weeks ago I sent you an email about having “too much stuff“.
My solution to this was (what now seems quite paradoxical)… to do much, much more stuff in three weeks to get massively organised and (eventually) create some much-needed space in my life.
…There are no magic beans in marketing.
Of course, some stuff works better than others – but the one thing which will allow you to get traction more than anything else is consistency.
…There’s a common belief that it’s generally a good idea to get as much feedback as possible on your ideas before you do anything about them.
I think this belief is highly flawed, here’s why:
