EPISODE 40: How to Break Away from Overdoing with Celeste Headlee
Description
Why listen? Here are just a few “heart taps” from this episode with journalist, radio host, author and podcaster Celeste Headlee:
- It’s important to know what you do well and don’t do well.
- You are not a 7-11…the “business of you” needs to have an opening and closing time.
- Human beings only have the capacity to focus for about 4 hours a day.
- Working more hours does not help us get more done.
- Many times, the more successful you are, the busier you are, and the less likely you’ll be to be able to enjoy your success and financial freedom.
- Our addiction to our electronics is a symptom. What do you think your cause is?
- Make time for play and hobbies…for no reason or outcome.
- Even if you think you don’t have time for play…do it anyways!!
- Let go of the feeling that you have to be good at everything.
- People enjoy you, your conversation and your company more than you realize.
- Get out of your own way!
- Research shows that you make a much better impression by what you ask versus what you say.
- Create your own daily routine that fits who you are!
