43: Your business has a clutter problem (and so does your garage)

43: Your business has a clutter problem (and so does your garage)

You have a cluttered garage or storage room or a spare bedroom that's been full for a lot longer than you'd like to admit. You think about clearing it out and you know that you should because it would feel so much better. But you don’t have the time or the patience or the motivation to do it right now.  Sound familiar? There's a reason it's still there. And there's a reason your calendar looks the same way. And your client or product list. And the decision you've been sitting on for the last six months. In this episode I want to show you what's actually behind the clutter that builds up in a growing business, why it stays no matter how hard you work or how determined you are to get on top of it, and what starts to change when you can see what's really driving it. Because it's not what you think it is. And once you can see it, it becomes a very solvable problem.

42: Why you can't focus (it's not what you think)

You know that feeling when you've planned your day carefully so everything has a place on the schedule, there’s more than enough time to get it all done, and yet you still can't seem to get through it? By early afternoon things completely ground to a halt. You feel foggy and slow, and you find yourself staring at your work instead of doing it.  And you can't figure it out either, because it all made sense on paper; the time was there, your plan was good, and you were more than organized.  So what could it be? You tell yourself you need better focus, more discipline, that you're getting distracted too easily. You wonder if something is wrong with you, because this keeps happening and you can't seem to figure out what you're missing. But what if the problem has nothing to do with your focus or your discipline? In this episode I want to show you what's really going on when you hit that wall, why it happens more than you'd expect, and what starts to change when you understand what's actually behind it.

41: You’re not running out of time (you’re running out of energy)

You've tried the earlier mornings, the better systems, the tighter schedules, and it always works for a while. Then slowly, without quite knowing how, the overwhelm starts to creep back in. The week fills up again, you're behind again, and you're starting to wonder if the problem is you, because you're doing everything right and it's still not working. It's not you. But it's probably not your time management either. In this episode I want to show you why the time solutions keep not working, what else is actually going on in your week besides the hours, and what changes when you can see the whole picture. Because once you can see what's actually going on in your week, not just the hours, a lot of things start to make a lot more sense.

40: What is your decided capacity?

Most business owners don't think about their capacity as something they can actually decide on. The demands show up and they absorb them. That's just what running a business feels like. That's just what it takes. And that might be exactly why you end the week feeling behind, worn down, and like you never quite caught up — no matter how hard you worked or how much you got done. In this episode I want to introduce you to something I call decided capacity. It's a concept I've developed through my own coaching work, and today I want to walk you through what it is, why most business owners don't have it, and what starts to change when you do.

39: That decision you keep circling but can't seem to make

You know that decision that's been sitting on your list for days, maybe weeks? You've thought about it, talked about it, and gone back and forth on it more times than you can count. And somehow you still haven't moved on it. It's not that you don't care, or that you can't make decisions. It's that this one feels like too much is riding on it. What if you get it wrong? What if it costs you time or money or creates more problems than it solves? So you wait, hoping the right answer will eventually feel obvious. In the meantime, the weight of it follows you around. Into your workday, into your evenings, into the back of your mind when you're trying to be somewhere else entirely. This episode is about what's actually happening underneath that stuck feeling, and a mindset shift that takes a lot of the pressure off. Because the problem usually isn't the decision itself. It's what you're afraid the wrong answer says about you.
