162: 3 Strategies to Fit Your Design Business Into Your Life

with Michele Williams

If you are following along with my newsletter challenges, then you are working to determine what is critical for you and your team to complete this year. (By the way, if you don\\u2019t get my newsletter, go to\\xa0www.scarletthreadconsulting.com\\xa0and sign up or download any of my free offerings.) And as you are focusing on what is really critical you may be looking at a task list that is longer than your calendar has months left in the year.

Today we are going to talk about fitting your business into your life instead of fitting your life into your business. I hope you find some great take-aways to lighten the load.

Topics Mentioned:\\xa0

  • Calendar

  • Create boundaries

  • Identify What You Want

Key Thoughts:

  • We start our business to live the life that we desire, but quickly, we find that we are always working and not living. So how do we keep the tension between these two areas in a safe place? .\\xa0Michele\\xa0(2:00)\\xa0

  • At the beginning of each year, I go to my work calendar (or actually a personal Google calendar that is linked to my work calendar), and I mark off every day I want to take off \\u2013 for any reason.\\xa0Michele\\xa0(3:44)\\xa0

  • I had not created the space in my own life to have joy, love, kindness, and peace show up as a natural byproduct.\\xa0\\xa0Michele\\xa0(6:42)\\xa0

    \\xa0

  • I learned to create boundaries around work and life. My life was scheduled, and then I scheduled my work. This allowed me to fit in work \\u2013 not fit in my life. Michele (9:51)
