So, you want to design a workday where you feel productive, creative and accomplished.
I’ve got you covered.
It’s about time you infuse more of what you love throughout your day! Before we get into designing your day, let’s talk about why it’s so important to design a day where you’re feeling fab and fired up.
If you’re not feeling excited, engaged and alive as you work, running your business will feel like a chore. Or worse, turn into a nightmare! And that’s not why you started it all.
You’ll find yourself feeling miserable and dread working on your business. On top of that, when stuff gets tough (because it will at times), you’ll procrastinate and compromise your results.
…not to mention sacrificing your health, happiness and sanity.
Creating a work day where you’re feeling productive, creative and accomplished will spark unstoppable momentum in your business.
Remember, you’re in this for long-term success and keeping up your momentum is part of the game. And how you work on your business is key!
The best place to begin is to think back to why you started it all from a lifestyle perspective. What lifestyle were you motivated to live by starting your business? Once you’ve reflected on that question, you’re ready to reimagine your ideal 12-hour day.
Imagine Your Ideal 12-hours
Creating your ideal day before designing your day is one of the best strategies for creating a fun, yet productive day. This will help you infuse more of what you love and focus on what’s most important to you in your daily routine.
This isn’t about the work you do, it’s about how you want to live your daily life while running your business. Once you have a clear vision for what your ideal day looks like, you can use aspects of that vision to create the perfect day for you.
Here are some questions that will help you visualize your ideal 12-hour day:
