I finally got wise to my own advice about asking for help and decided to hire another team person.
In retrospect, I asked myself what the struggle was all about. My stumbling block was believing the myth that I could – and should – do it all. I began to make progress when I became willing to admit I cannot – and should not.
You see, I don’t mind working hard in the winter, but now the Minnesota sun is beginning to shine, melting snow and ice into puddles of water. Although we may have a few more weeks of hard winter, the birds are beginning to sing a bit more and I can feel in my blood that spring is right around the corner.
With spring, the fun begins. Pruning bushes, throwing down new grass seed, cleaning out garages, hanging birdfeeders, trips to the nursery to pick out plants to fill the empty planters, getting out the bicycles and motorcycles… after a very long and very cold winter, we are all ready to let the fun begin.
My goal is to be as efficient as I can so when that beautiful time of the year comes, the time we long for all winter, I will have a team that supports me. Getting myself organized so I am able to delegate work is extremely important. Being a great Life Coach means delicately balancing businesswoman and Jane.
Are you feeling spring in your blood too? What do you need to do to get more free time on your plate? Are you ready to let go of something? What can you let go that will allow you to pursue your passions more directly and efficiently?
