Destination or Journey?
Which one you focus on matters more than you think.
One of the hidden drivers of procrastination is where your attention goes when you think about a task. Most of us naturally drift toward the hardest, least enjoyable part.
Take picking up dog 💩 from the lawn. Genuinely a s**t job (you see what I did there 😄). The dominant thought in my head is that it's smelly, unpleasant, and I'd rather not.
So I put it off.
That's focusing on the journey.
But if I shift my attention to how good the lawn will look afterwards, and the fact that my kids can play on it without navigating landmines, I'm far more likely to actually go and deal with it.
That's focusing on the destination.
The task hasn't changed. The experience of doing it hasn't changed. What's changed is where my brain is pointing before I start.
So next time you're putting something off, ask yourself one question: am I focusing on the best part of this, or the worst?

Respect.
You want a quick fix for your productivity issues??
Then show yourself and those around some respect for you’re and their time and cognitive energy.
Both are limited and both matter.
Don’t interrupt someone when they’re working just because you need something.
Don’t send a massive ‘War and Peace’ email just because you like writing.
Don’t be late to that meeting so that everyone has to wait for you.
So next time, take a moment to consider whether you are respecting yourself and those around you BEFORE you interrupt someone, BEFORE you send an unnecessarily long email or BEFORE you do that ‘one more thing’ before the meeting.

Most of the people I work with are not lazy or disorganised - they are genuinely trying hard.
The problem is that effort alone does not create clarity. And without some structure around how you work - when you do what, why, and in what order - even a full day of trying hard can leave you feeling like you are behind.
That is what my coaching work is about. Practical, grounded, and based on how the brain actually works, not how we think it should.
If that sounds familiar, feel free to send me a message.

How many of these can you say “yes” to?
Lack of motivation, ambition or enthusiasm as very rarely the problem!
More likely, it's -
➡️ Too many interruptions or distractions
➡️ Unclear or urgent priorities
➡️ Unrealistic structure
➡️ Lack of protection of your time and energy
This Wednesday (22nd April) at 12:30pm NZ time I am running a free 1 hour webinar called Better Business Starts With You where we'll address these challenges and provide information on real solutions.
