In today's episode we talk about how our brain works when it comes to our negative thought patterns and some tools we can use to climb out of that hole and start to focus on the positive aspects.
One of the greatest tools for maintaining a positive outlook is Gratitude, and a daily gratitude practice is an excellent way to cultivate that muscle. We've made it super easy.
In today's Episode we look back on our Episode with JJ DiGeronimo, and the "power of no" - and dive a little deeper into why No is a kindness as well as an important tool to cultivate for any business owner. In being "selfish" (as some may see it), you are actually being selfless - you are acknowledging before any disappointment (to yourself or to others) that you cannot or will not meet the expectation - which would inevitably not be positive for either party.
It is a superpower, really.
Today's Episode is all about putting boundaries in place to protect your personal energy while running your business.
