Hello, and welcome to another episode of The Goal Digger Girl, where we #getLIT in your business and set your soul on fire. Welcome back, Goal Digger. I'm so excited to chat with you about how to take control of your calendar, because every single day I get messages from people on my team, clients, people who follow me and they're like, "I don't know how you get so much done. I'm struggling over here. I'm overwhelmed. I'm frustrated. I'm really trying, and I just don't seem to have enough time", or "I don't know how to keep it all organized". Can you relate to that? Where you're just feeling like, "gosh, it's just- I'm all over the place". Well, that's pretty common for entrepreneurs, so I think this is really going to help you out today. But first a listener review from Mariah. So Mariah says "A real rockstar".

Thanks! Says "Kim is a rockstar. There is no compliment that would justify how amazing this woman is. This is what true transformation looks like. I love you". Oh, I didn't even read this before I read this. Thank you, that is super sweet. Oh my gosh. I really appreciate it. And y'all please leave reviews, 'cause it totally helps the podcast. It's crazy how important the ratings are to-  the reviews are to the ratings. So if you don't mind, I appreciate it. So when it comes to taking control of your calendar, this really is the million dollar secret. Like if you talk to anybody who is at the top of their game, top of their field and they really are crushing it, it's always found in the details of their day. It is. And, I think we just tell ourselves this story, which it's justified, that we're so busy.

We have so much going on and, "but you don't understand my kids, or my husband, or my elderly parent, or my job", or "I'm just so tired. I don't feel good". Like we all have these things that we tell ourselves and they're legit. They're real. So it's not to say that they're not real, but the difference is that we still get stuff done. We still have those non-negotiables that we get done. We still have that perception of the way we look at our day is the way a champion looks at their day. And you are a champion. You're a champion in the making. Even if you don't have the results you want today, you have to go through a transformation. Like Mariah said, it's a process. I didn't just wake up one day like, "yes!".  This is years in the making, guys.

So, the same thing can be applied to you and your situation. So the first thing I would say when it comes to taking control of your calendar is that you just need to take ownership, first off. Okay. I did a previous episode on, you know, taking control of your life and getting back in the driver's seat. You've got to take ownership of it first off, and stop with the excuses. And I hope you know, I say that with love. But honestly, we all have the same 24 hours in a day. So if you think of the busiest person you know, and the amount of stuff they're getting done, then why not you? Why not you?
