To-do lists are a useful tool for prioritizing your workload, for making sure you don't forget anything and for visualizing all the things you have to do. Once you've created your to-do list, you can then work through it one item at a time and that way get a real sense of progress as you tick each item off.

In the past decade or so, there has been much talk about something that is age-old, but now has a name. That name is “creative visualization”.

It’s a process one embarks on that is kind of like meditation in that there is the intent to focus on one thing, which lets the rest fall away. ![]()
A huge factor in burnout is the stress related to feeling like you do not have enough time to get everything done in a day. It can feel like everyone wants you to attend to things immediately, even things that are not really that important! Our bodies are not machines, and it is important to remember that we cannot treat them as such. This is why learning how to set priorities is so important. Surprisingly, there are many people who do not know how to do this effectively. One of the first things I work with new clients on is learning how to set priorities in one's life.

It’s especially helpful for team leaders to lead by example so they can rally and inspire the group to victory.

Leaders are prone to take risks and those risks may cause others to see them as "losers," especially if the leaders don’t have full knowledge of what the endeavor consists of before they become involved. Some mistakes come from thinking so radically that it’s impossible to know how taking a chance will turn out. If it turns out well, the leader is a hero. If not, serious consequences may be the result.
There are some common mistakes made among most leaders that are avoidable if you know some leadership strategies. Here are five common mistakes which can and should be avoided if you’re in a leadership role: ![]() Does your morning routine consist of staying in bed as late as possible while barely making it to work on time?

Whatever you’re trying to accomplish, clarity is paramount. Being consistent and staying on track is largely a result of being unambiguous about your life and purpose. Fortunately, getting clarity in your life is easy with a little daily effort.
Having clear goals is critical. Your brain is much more capable of finding solutions if the objective is obvious. You’ll also stay on track more easily if the end result is clear to you. If you don’t have a specific endpoint in mind, you could end up anywhere. And even if you do land in the right place by sheer luck, how would you know you were there? |
