Does Your Email Set Your Priorities for the Day?
Is your “to do” list created around what shows up in your email inbox?
Guess who is in charge of you and your time when you do this?
Answer: Not you. It is whoever wrote that email or posted that message on social media. This common mistake means that you are living a life that is reactive instead of proactive. It’s an example of letting your business happen to you instead of being at cause in your business.
What would it look like if you took the lead for your day, your week, your year, planned your time and then followed that plan?
What is possible for you when you take the lead based on what you already know to be most important?
God has given us all gifts to be used to his glory, but many of us discount those gifts, often without even knowing it. We discount them by not recognizing them as gifts. We discount them by not giving them top priority in our lives and we discount them by not recognizing the resources without and within to accomplish our dreams.
Ask yourself: What if I acknowledged the gifts God has given me? What if I made using that gift a top priority in my life? What if God has already made the power and the resources available to me to be successful?
Embrace your role as the leader of your business and decide what needs to happen before you open your email or visit social media. Be the leader you are meant to be.
You are the storyteller of your life and you can create your own legend or not. Isabel Allende
