How are you moving forward this and next week?

This is, most likely, your last push before the holiday crush and then it’s the holiday break.

So, how do you decide what is most important, next important, etc.

Do you know which activities bring you the most clients/customers, or financial turnover? Do those activities.

The rest of your to-dos can fall away till January.

Make sure your WHY is in the decision-making process, too.

If the reason you are “in business” in the first place is at the forefront, your work before Dec. 31st, 2022 will be blessed, period.

Results are the goal.

Make sure you know what brings results (see above) and then communicate these activities and the results to your team. If you are a one-woman-show (like me), then tell your F&Fs (friends and family, or your partner, or…). But just that communication solidifies your decisions to do the best thing and avoid the shiny new thing that may be a rabbit hole in disguise.

Learn your Lessons and act on those take-aways.

Make sure you know what you have learned in the past, reflect on them and then move forward with better ideas, and structures to follow through with. Do not be the person that says, “it was just bad luck.” That is not going to get you any farther.

Know your bottom line and have a concrete plan for if you cross it – what are the steps to either a pivot, a complete change, or…?

What is next?

When the big break comes, what else are you going to do? And what do you want to do when you are 50? 60? 70??? Do not forget the BIG picture in your planning and carrying out of your to-dos. Always have the Big Picture in mind.

In all things be thankful and savor the present. Remember the PPF Model:

PAST: Remember the past and be grateful, PRESENT: savor what we have in the present and FUTURE:  anticipate the good things the future holds with hope.

The future is coming up with every new moment we breathe. So, take a clean deep breath and move into that future with hope and confidence, based on what you have and are learning.

Have y wonderful week,
