Creating Confidence with Heather Monahan
Confidence Classic: Discover Your Calling! With Ryan Blair Founder Of AlterCall

One of the tricks that I do is in between sessions, you know, I might have a mentoring session where there's some heavy, heavy conversation and it might weigh heavy on me. And so I'll go take a quick breathwork session, say five minutes, recenter myself, and then go back into the next session with my energy cleared. And breathwork is one of the most powerful ways to clear the energy.

Yeah, that's a great question. And I use a technique where I have people first focus on removing something from their life. So what you would be surprised, I did an analysis on my time the other day, and I'm actually teaching this to the entrepreneurs that I work with, where we look at all the things that bring us light in our lives, like catching a sunset, a sunrise, playing with my dog, right?

All the things that bring us light and joy in our life. And you write all those things down. And then you write all the things that you have to do, like work and stuff like that. And then you add up how long each of the things that brings you joy, and then how much time it takes to do work.

And then you try to find balance among the two groups, and making sure that you prioritize your time for the things that bring you joy. Because work will eat up all of the available time. So if you don't have boundaries around the things that bring you joy, work will eat that up.

And next thing you know, you'll be doing more work and more work and more work at the expense of actually having joy in life. So you have to have boundaries around that. You have to write out those things that bring you joy.

And what I tell people to do is after they write up all the things that bring them joy, and then all the things that are required in the roles that they have, the work that they do, Then we have to say to ourselves, let's make some space. And the thing that surprised me is like 10 minutes a day is five days a year, right?

So if you cut back on your Instagram for 10 minutes a day, if you cut back on reading the news for 10 minutes a day, you could do five days a year worth of breath work. You could do five more days a year worth of vacation. So when you look at the amount of minutes that you spend wasting time in life, procrastinating. Social media is a big time waster. The news is a huge time waster.

Netflix is a huge time waster. And you look at all the things that you spend time wasting, and if you start restricting those things, and I'm not saying eliminate them completely, but just cut them back in such a way that you're fine with that. It's like, all right, I'm going to spend five days a year reading the news.
