Rethinking my Priorities

We’re finally out of lockdown, so to celebrate my best friend Georgia’s birthday, we got a bach (that’s a beach house/holiday home for anyone international!) in Lake Taupo.

It’s totally gorgeous here, and the best thing is that I’m taking time off (something I don’t do enough!) from running my business. I am still doing my coaching calls, but not all of the extra admin tasks.

One of the biggest learning lessons I’ve had over the past few days is how true Paretos principle is:

“The Pareto principle states that, for many events, roughly 80% of the effects come from 20% of the causes.”

This is definitely the case in my business. I spend so much time working on things that don’t actually matter.

Too much time scrolling on Facebook.

Too much time checking emails.

Too much time planning instead of doing.

So I’m using this weekend as a reset button, to check in with what actually matters.

I’ll let you know what I discover!
