Change 1 Pause… And You Can Change It All!

Have you noticed a tendency to put things off? What things in particular?

Is it dealing with paper? I have piles of them everywhere, thinking to myself, “If I don’t see them I won’t remember that I need to deal with them.”

Or is it a decision that needs to be made? Maybe even about an issue on those papers…

Let’s get you shifted and back in action. Grab a blank piece of paper and list the top 10 things you’ve been putting off. Actually, list everything you’ve been putting off!

When that list feels complete, ask yourself:

“Which of these tasks is stalled because I’m missing information?”

Put a star next to each of those items and list the information you need in order to move it forward.

Now calendar the actions you’ll take to get that information in the next 36 hours. If you need to delegate it, send the email today to the person who will get you that information and give them the same 36-hour deadline.
