You get to decide what you want to think about your to do list. You could decide to think “I’m behind” or “I’m not getting enough done”, which is likely going to leave you feeling inadequate and exhausted or you can choose to think “I’m on top of everything” or “I know what I’m doing”, which will have you feeling successful and accomplished. In today’s podcast, I’m talking about how important your thoughts are when it comes to your to do list. I will walk you through the kinds of thoughts that are not to think and I’ll give examples of exactly what you need to think in order to walk away from work feeling accomplished, successful and satisfied (no matter how many things you checked off the list). And then at the end, I offer one very simple five minute practice to help you get out of “it’s not enough” thinking.Topics in this episode:Why the length of your to do list doesn’t matter Choosing positive thoughts about your to-do’s and the impact that hasHow to feel accomplished at the end of the workday, no matter how many things were checked off the listThe starting point to getting more done in less timeA simple 5-minute practice to help you end your workday with “I accomplished enough” thinkingShow Notes & References: When family responsibilities all fall on you (with Maggie Reyes) – Episode 29Navigating the word to home transition – Episode 7Interested in bringing me into your company to speak?
