How many times have you said \\u201cyes\\u201d to something and regretted it? How many times have you put more time / effort / energy into other people rather than yourself? How many times have you felt anxious / overwhelmed trying to balance everything you\\u2019re involved with?
\\xa0
The key to avoiding all this madness is identifying what matters most to US, build routines so that we stay consistent & getting real good at saying NO!

Topics :
- Being a Top 2% Uber Driver taught me to build boundary walls around my time
-
- Every ride meant more $$$ in my pocket, I was in control of when / how much I worked
- Without boundaries, it\\u2019s impossible to make progress in any bucket of our life
-
- We\\u2019re going to be pulled in a million different directions
- Tips for Building Boundaries
-
- (1) Identify What Matters Most to YOU
-
- When we start to break down where we want to spend our time, we can make better decisions about what to do & when
- We\\u2019re cutting up our Cake of Time and making sure every piece is accounted for
- (2) Schedule Important Routines
-
- Now that we\\u2019ve identified what matters most to US, we can begin to plot when / where we should do something
- They help us stay disciplined on a day to day, week to week or month to month basis\\xa0
- They help us create the motivation to do \\u201cx\\u201d because we don\\u2019t have ANY energy to debate when to do it
- (3) Hand Out \\u201cNO\\u201d Cards Unapologetically
-
- Rule of thumb : If something doesn\\u2019t completely excite you & it\\u2019s NOT an immediate yes\\u2026 say no
- The secret to saying no is how you communicate it
- Saying no creates more space for us to say yes to the things that do matter
- (4) Reevaluate The Walls When Needed
-
- Our priorities / goals change with time just as we do
- I\\u2019m constantly evaluating the walls that I\\u2019ve built around myself to see if
-
- They\\u2019re standing strong
- If they need some patching up
- Or if they need to be completely torn down
- Challenge for the listeners\\xa0
