I've got some tips for you!  :-)

Slow Times

Believe it or not, slow times in your business allow for greater things.  It's time to evaluate, catch-up, and plan.

 

Have you ever had a period of work overload from a massive project and when the project has finished you crash and burn, look around and realise that you don't have another project in the pipeline?

 

Instead of panicking, take the time to:

 

1. Reward yourself.  You just took on and conquered a major project with skill and excellent results.  Why do you work that hard if no reward?  How about a new television, an ipad, or a long weekend away?

 

2. Breathe, and take care of yourself.  There's a good chance you've gotten yourself rundown, and need this quiet time to regroup physically.  Review your eating, sleeping and exercising habits and fix them up.  Get out into the sunshine!

 

3. Organise your tasks. Set up automatic payments for your bills, create some KPI schedules, complete those insurance or super forms, get your medical claims claimed, talk to your tax accountant & bookkeeper, review your diary.

 

4. Organise your paperwork.  For those of you in the Southern Hemisphere, it's time to set up your new binders or folders for the new financial year.  All of us can catch-up on our filing.  I'm going to say it...doing your own filing sucks.  But it's a big relief when it's done.

 

5. Organise your space.  Buy that new office chair, get some extra lighting via a floor lamp and desk lamp, put a white board up on the wall, organise the bookshelf and flat surfaces. 

Clean

your office.

 

6. Catch-up on that reading pile that you have.  Go through it and read as you go, or chuck it out and decide to start fresh.

 

7. Plan.  What do you want the next 12 months to look like?  What are your seeds planted that you need to follow up on?  What will your rewards be?  Who do you need to spend time with?  What do you need to learn?

 

8. Visualise all the great things that are going to happen for you and your business as a result of clearing space for all of that new good energy and abundance.

 

Now you're ready for the greater things, hang on, it's going to be a fantastic ride!
