Be There

We are all challenged daily to not only make plans, but to actually "be there" and keep those commitments. We find ourselves constantly pulled in a number of competing directions with the result being we just can't do it all: business opportunities are missed, we disappoint customers, co-workers, and even our family and friends. When will it stop?

It stops when you make the decision to stop! No complex solution required. Just stop.

Start by stepping back and getting clarity on what's important in your business life and your personal/family life. There really isn't work/life balance. You have to be 100% committed and present when at work and 100% committed and present in your personal family life. Wherever you are or whatever you're doing just "be there" to make the most of it.

Stop looking "to find or squeeze in" those important business appointments or special family moments between your self-imposed impossible schedule. Start by first determining what those important things are and then book them on your calendar right now! Stop waiting for the last minute to book it or when you happen to remember that you have to do something.

Simply put: you are allowing yourself - in fact you are encouraging yourself - to be a victim of your circumstances. Why not work at being a master of your circumstances? If you make that decision, you can stop disappointing (and hurting) the important people in both your business and personal lives.

Becoming a master of your circumstances is what Stepping Up and Playing Big is all about!

Your Monday Morning Wake-Up Quote 
 
"In a strange way, some get really good at accepting guilt for disappointing others. Why not get really good at making a positive difference in the lives of others by being there?
