Do you frequently jump on things and then overwork yourself, regretting doing this activity?
Ask yourself this:
Is this a wise choice of how to spend my time?
Is this activity driven by my values or by my pressure to achieve?
Is this going to light me up, and refuel me through my passion?
Will doing this drain my energy further, or replenish it?
Can I do a smaller version of this, rather than going all in?
Can I take any shortcuts?
What would it look like if it was easy?
Some of you may know I had my second baby in September, and recorded lots of podcast episodes before that, whilst I was still pregnant.
Instead of jumping into recording lots more podcasts now, I am making some wise choices with my time, taking some shortcuts.
I am still here, you will still get more episodes, but as and when it suits me and my baby.
