What adjustments to make?
Making adjustments is taking action in your daily life, that will pave the way for balance that will last. Making adjustments says “I can and will create balance AND success”
As a CEO, founder or leader here’s some practical ideas of how you can start making adjustments to create balance:
Charge your phone in a different room at night (+ use an alarm clock)
Walking meetings (in nature if you can!)
Meditate for 5 mins + per day (try these)
Turn you phone off 2 hours before you go to bed at night
Get a coach (book a power hour here)
Use this FREE Decision Making Framework
Join a Book Club (message me to join mine)
Reduce your meetings
Try breathwork
Attend an event that focuses on your balance
Do something YOU enjoy
Book a retreat
When you start to make adjustments, you will notice how quickly it can bring you back into balance.
How to create adjustments:
1. Try this FREE Decision Making Framework to get you started.
Top tip: Print the framework out, and refer to it whenever you make a decision (big or small!) every day for 1 week. Then try for 3 weeks. Then create it as an every day routine and method for you to tap into your self awareness.
Watch how your decision making starts to create space for balance + becomes more in line with your own values.
2. Journalling:
Try these prompts to get you started:
When I’m out of balance, how do I impact those around me?
When I’m in balance, how do I impact those around me?
What do I truly enjoy doing the most?
When can I schedule in my own “balance time”?
How does it feel when I start my day with a meditation?
3. Coaching:
The BEST thing about coaching is that you create accountability to ensure that you implement the changes you want to see in your life and business.
If you're not being 100% honest with yourself, a coach is someone who will let you know without judgement so that you can commit to being the best version of you.
A coach can share with you new tools to create balance in your life, whilst reaching your goals, without you having to rack your brain for inspiration.
It's someone who is on your side, without you having to constantly speak with your friends and family about whatever is on your mind.
