Making Our with Matt Damon is Good For Your Business
Extraordinary Woman Dilemma:
You've got a deadline to meet and you're tight, tense...gripped. If there was a bite-guard to keep business owners from clenching their teeth, you could use one right about now. You go for a walk, but that doesn't help because you end up thinking about the problem the whole time. You try pushing harder, but the harder you push, the more you seem to freeze up.
What There Is For You To Know:
The tightness and gripping is a sign that you're out of rhythm. It's not that you're failing or uptight. You're just out of sync with the natural rhythm that fits you best.
Making Out With Matt Damon:
A friend of mine was telling me about a dream she had where she was passionately making out with Matt Damon (funny, I've had that dream too!) Unfortunately, her cat woke her up before the conclusion, but the dream made her feel "kinda sex-aaay" all day long. She walked around with a little swing in her hips and a little sass in her smile.
Try It On The Fly:
That swing in the hip? That's an example of your rhythm. So here's the playful experiment for this week: Tap into what makes you feel a little sexy. A particular dream or memory? A certain kind of music or song? Maybe it's an item of clothing or a favorite scent. Or yes, even a daydream about your celebrity of choice. Remember, it's good for your business!
From the perspective of having a little "swing in your hip", check-in about the business deadline on the table. Ask yourself, "What's the real rhythm here?" And if you're not feeling particularly tapped into the sexy thing, that's okay too. You can still ask, "What's the real rhythm here?"
Tips For Troubleshooting:
Sometimes you'll have an a-ha about the rhythm of your deadline, but you won't be able to make changes this time around. No worries- the true juice here is that you became aware of your real rhythm. The more you get to know it, the more it will guide you for setting future business deadlines.
There are a million different pathways into your real rhythm. This is just one of them. Stay tuned for more!
