THE POWER OF PLANNING AHEAD

Posted by: Lori from Lifesuccessnz 

Stop putting off your dreams – your life’s mission– because you don’t feel you have enough time. Become the most productive person you know.

It may seem counterintuitive to spend time planning, when time feels scarce already. However, the time you spend planning will allow you to accomplish your work more efficiently and make your dreams a reality.



In order to maximize productivity “chunk” your to do list. Take your various action items and group them together, orienting them toward a common outcome and result. Simply put, chunking is the process of turning more into less!

Try this strategy for results:

    • Set aside an hour at the beginning of every week to just think and plan out your week. - Monday or Sunday is the best.

    • Write down what you accomplished in the previous week that you’re proud of. Write down what you were unable to accomplish. - in a notebook or a journal. 

    • Prioritize what needs to be done this week. Find ways to be more efficient.

    • I find planning content helps to plan how you going to do things. 

    • Chunk those items together! Tick them off as you go! 

    • Put away all your distractions and truly focus on how you can make your upcoming week more manageable.

    • As soon as you complete a key task or objective, reward yourself!

The Importance of Going After your goal You Want

 Importance of achieving goals  My dream came true!  Experiencing self-doubt is part of being human. It is easy to automatically assume you are not good enough, not talented, or not skilled enough to dream big or get the outcome you want. But I did it! I made my dream happen in the music industry. To assume other people’s  dreams  come true, but not yours. I think this can be especially true for those in a minority group including people with chronic health concerns or a disability. Regardless of my health condition I still did make it happen.  You may not achieve a goal simply because you tried and worked hard, but if you don’t try you will not even have the possibility of reaching your goal. The act of taking values-based action, regardless of the outcome is beneficial. It is motivating and vitalizing to know you are taking steps toward something meaningful to you. While it is nice to get the outcome you want, I find there is a sense of satisfaction and p...

Building a resilient child

  As much as we would love to shield our kids from the harder parts of life, sadly we can’t keep them from facing challenges, big and small. I believe it is important to teach kids how to handle challenges in life like I did. What we can do, however, is teach our kids the skills of resilience. I’ve been through a lot as a child and lost a sibling through suicide in 1995 and there was nothing for children back in 1995 they swept it under the carpet but it’s important we actually learn ways to overcome these traumatic experiences. Resilience is what helps us humans cope when times get tough. Although the term ‘ resilience ’ is talked about a lot these days, it’s not always well understood. It doesn’t mean simply putting on a brave face or learning not to care about what happens to us. It means facing the negative situations with courage. It’s about being able to recognise that some things in life are hard. And it’s ok to have big feelings about that.  When we can accept our fee...

  How to move on from setbacks Bounce back better with these 5 science-backed strategies None of us sail through life without some drama. Sure, it can feel like some people experience more hardship than others but think about the people you know. Really know. Chances are, most of them struggle with something. The best we can do is work on how we respond to challenges. These science-backed strategies are a good place to start. 1. Acceptance This doesn't mean you agree with the situation, but you can acknowledge it as your current reality. This helps you to stop dwelling on what could have been and start moving towards what can be. 2. Let go of the past Holding onto disappointment and tragedy for example suicidal death of a loved one. It only keeps you stuck. One technique you might like to try is writing down negative thoughts in a journal. Sometimes seeing it on paper or a journal can help you examine it more objectively. - this is used in life coaching known as cognitive behaviour...
