How to focus on the priorities in your work and life

Multitasking is said to be a bad idea. It lowers your IQ and it’s draining to switch from task to task. However, it is difficult to stop and easy to keep taking things on until you feel overwhelmed and out of control.
It’s hard to change the way you’ve been d**g things.
If you want to regain control of your work and life and no longer feel frazzled, then consider the following questions.
What can I eliminate from what I do everyday?
Which one of those projects are not leading to my bigger aspirations?
Are there invitations I say ‘Yes’ to out of habit?
What can I outsource? what can I delegate?
How can I simplify what I do?

Juggling so many task and keeping all balls in the air can give you a sense of accomplishment but it comes with a price and it wears you thin after a while. So do not wait until a life changing event forces you into making a change. Improve your life right now by choosing to simplify, eliminate and delegate or outsource.

Weekend words of encouragement

14/08/2019

Tell signs of workplace burn out and how to overcome it.

Research has defined work related stress, depression or anxiety as a harmful reaction. People have the undue pressures and demand placed on them at work.

Behaviours which trigger cause for concern include but are not limited to the following;-

- unable to switch off
- Poor sleeping patterns
- Loss of appetite
- The dreaded “Sunday night” feeling as the weekend comes to a close
- Sickness
- Persistent lateness
- Disengagement at work,socially and with family
Preventing burnout in the workplace and performing at your peak can be achieved if you implement these tips.

- switch off phones/tablets/gadgets when not in use. Don’t become a slave to the flashing red light reminding you when you have a message
- Treat appointments in your personal life with urgency and priority
- Remove clutter in your work environment
- Learn to say “No” to the unimportant things not adding value.
- Stay hydrated. Water fuels the brain.
If you are feeling stressed and would like further advice, let’s talk. Please email me at info.ccsfocus.com or send me a message.

What’s your views on meetings?

Do you speak in meetings with Confidence and Authority?

Meetings are important opportunities to show others what you know, how you think and what you are like. In many cases, meetings are where your colleagues and senior managers will spend the most time with you. Yet speaking up at meetings can be stressful and pressure filled. You are “on show” and have to perform at your best. This feeling of discomfort is common when you are new to a team , role or company.
It can be nerve wracking to put your points across and speak in large gathering and when it is with a group of very experienced people and subject matter experts that only adds to the nerves.

Consider these steps to speak with confidence and authority.

1. Defuse your fear by ensuring you are prepared and have reviewed the agenda and are comfortable with the discussion points.

2. Prepare your mindset. Be positive. There is no silly question ask it anyway.

3. Get straight to the point,
4. Practice out loud privately.
5. be a good listener and make sure your contribution is relevant.

If you struggle with confidence and speaking up, let me hear your comments on this post.
