I’ve been feeling all out of sorts lately. Not sleeping well. Low on energy. I’ve realized that as a result of our move, lots of travel, and kids sporadic schedules this summer, I completely fell off my routine the last few weeks. One of the biggest contributors to my lower performance is letting my morning exercise…
Just returned from much needed R&R – time away on the East coast to hang out with my family and friends. It took me at least three days to sever the attachment to my phone and laptop. I slowly but surely disengaged BUT by the end of our trip, I had gone to the other…
Life gets so complicated, doesn’t it? Projects, goals, and deadlines, oh my! And when it’s all looming in front of you, you feel totally overwhelmed. Am I right? Enter: A serious bout of analysis paralysis. Stuck on the never-ending hamster wheel of worrying about everything you need to get done and panicking about not having enough time….

Ever have one of those weeks where you feel like you got nothing done? But you know you’ve been busy. In and out of meetings, appointment after appointment, checking off the lists, making the calls, writing the emails, copying the papers, grabbing the files, investing the time, asking the questions, responding to the messages and…
Ever have those days when you feel like you’re drowning in quicksand, head first? You look at your to-do list, more like pages of lists, and everything seems important.
