Subtract Your Way To Success

Christi Hegstad March 23rd, 2015



“When you clear the path to success – that’s when you consistently get there.”
Gary Keller

Coaching Tip for the Week:


When you set a new goal or decide to improve an area of your work or life, what’s the first thing you do? 



For many, we jump right into “do” mode: adding tasks to our to-do lists and putting more into our already-busy schedules.



While that may prove an important part of your strategy, you can’t continually add-add-add without feeling the weight of overwhelm. Sometimes, our best first step isn’t adding – but subtracting.

This week, remove some barriers. Look at your most important goals and ask, “What’s standing in my way?” Then begin clearing the path to your success: let go of a non-essential calendar commitment, declutter your desk or email in-box, say “no” to a request on your time in order to say “yes” to what matters most.

Not only will you free up time and space, you’ll increase mental energy in the process!
