Welcome!

Last Thursday morning I made a fatal error.

Coffee made.

Getting ready for the day.

Got my journal open 🖊️ 

And I picked up my phone.

And I wished I hadn’t.

So lets dig in 😉 

It was the day after the budget. 💰️ 

And whilst we will all have different opinions on the budget and the imminent changes to navigate in our lives and our business…

Thinking about it at 7am in the morning isn’t the most important thing you should be focussing on at that time!!

However!

One of my friends was pretty troubled by some of the changes made and had clearly had a turbulent nights sleep about it.

So when I glanced at my phone.

It was a message about exactly that.

The budget.

And I opened it.

In fact my friend had gone as far as to calculate the impact of the budget for my business too 😅 

And dont get me wrong I appreciated the concern 🙃 

But is it what any of us should be occupying our mindset with first thing on a Thursday morning?

Absolutely not!

Just like any issues or challenges that come up in life.

We can dedicate proper thinking time to solving them.

But first thing in the morning?

No.

This should be when we protect our minds, our peace and our outlook for the day.

Think on what we’re grateful for.

Consume some positive words from a podcast or a book.

Get some steps in and move and do something your body will thank you for.

Take your supplements

Make sure you have the 3 things you must get done that day.

Because

When we set big goals for the year ⭐️ 

In order to achieve them…

We must hit our mini goals each quarter.

And to do that we must ‘win the week’

And to do that….. we must make each day the most productive, fun and enjoyable it can be.

If I take care of each day.

It makes sense that everything else will follow suit.

So…

I consider setting my day up for success a ‘must do’

The first hour 🕰️ 

Just for you.

Before you let all the external noise creep in.

The noise that tries to throw you off track before you’ve even begun.

Make that first hour the one that sets you up ready to achieve everything you’ve set out to do.

Make that first hour the one that guarantees a good day no matter what comes up.

Don’t let the day consume you before you’ve even started.

Something to think about this week.

What would it look like if you had your first hour each day this week away from any emails, notifications or messages?

Calmer, more in control, more focussed on the priorities perhaps?

Give it a try and let me know how you get on 🥰 

On Focus on the Fun Stuff this week 🎧️ 

This week on the Focus on the Fun Stuff podcast, I spoke to a serial business builder who exited one of his companies for EIGHT figures, after just THREE years.

Adam Kara doesn’t run his businesses the way most of us do, and his unusual approach has brought him unbelievable success.

If you ever feel like you’re struggling to make real progress in your business, you have to tune in and hear his insights – they’re all about shifting away from that “busy being busy” approach so many of us are slaves to…

…And redefining your entire strategy to focus on real growth and scalability.

You can listen here now on your favourite platform 🎧️🥰 

Go Win The Week.

Protect what enters your mind this week.

Especially first thing in the morning.

It can transform your day.

From filled with notifications to clear and focussed.

And I want that for you.

I’m cheering you on
