Something funny happened on the way to making a Pie Chart for my 'Spring Ideas" Blog.
After disregarding the fact that I almost foolishly downloaded some absolutely unneeded programs while trying to download the Pie Chart... and add in the fact that I have had the best winter of my 22 year career...I realized that I may have the perfect solution....
Slowdown and smell the Roses!!
SO many of us get to going so fast...we fail to notice the beautiful smells that surround us and the business that is right under our noses.
We are setting our sights so far down the road that we fail to be prepared for today...because we are working on tomorrow or next week or next year or retirement....
STOP!!! Quit It! Knock It Off! Enough!!
Right Now..This Moment... Take a Deep Breath and Slowly Exhale. Now Do it again only close your eyes and then Take the Deep Breath and Slowly Exhale...
OKAY...Hello....Wake Up!!
You Didn't open your eyes right away did you??? Yeah...me neither.
For me it felt very relaxing and that is good. Really different than what I am (or was) used to.
I think that is how many of us are in our careers...we are so busy...or try to be be so focused and organized...that we really do fail to stop and relax our selves.
I had a nurse a while back tell me to do this and I couldn't believe how relaxing it felt.
SO my new game plan which I started to put into effect in November...is to Relax more...Work Less...Quit Chasing every single Lead...Quit being a Kid in the Candy Store...and Start Having More Fun! At work and with those I Love in a more relaxed way!
Play More! That is Right! You read that correctly. I started playing more and getting out in a relaxed settings more and my quality business soared!! I gave up the junk and even the average leads and in return had time to find the good stuff...the A leads...and I am having the best winter of my career working way less!!
So If You Are Looking for a Spring Idea from me...it is to Take a Deep Breath with Your eyes Closed....in Fact take three or four...But careful...any more than that and they will think you have fallen asleep...and then again, maybe that wouldn't be all bad either.
So if you are playing more and working less..stop by our humble abode in Central Nebraska!!
And if you want to smell the roses...they will start blooming around late April!! Come on by!! Until then...
