43: Behind the Scenes: What I Learned in 2020 + Plans for 2021
This is NOT the episode I had planned for today. That episode will still be coming, but as I sat down to put together my thoughts for this episode, I realized that I wanted to start this year by opening up a little more than I have in most episodes.
One of the things that has always been a priority for me in business and in this podcast is to be real.
Yes, I want to be helpful to you by sharing what I know, and bringing on guests and experts to share what THEY know, but I think there’s another way to be helpful…
... which is just to pull back the curtain on my business and life so you can see what’s there. What my 2020 looked like. What worked, what didn’t work, what I struggled with, what I learned.
And so, I want to do more of that this year.
And today, I invite you into my business and my life, and I’ll show you around.
I’m going to start by giving you a quick overview of what 2020 looked like for me personally and in business. Then, I’ll talk about what I learned in hopes that you can take that with you as well as we head into 2021. Finally, we’ll wrap up with some quick thoughts about what’s next for me in business and for this podcast.
Here’s a quick summary of what I learned in 2021.
Big changes can happen FAST when you commit.
Delegating frees up your time AND mental space
Having a full plate is a good thing… to a point
Look for creative solutions
Be willing to be uncomfortable
To motivate yourself, focus on what you care about -- what change you’re working toward
