Earn Your Happy

Recently I had an experience that opened my eyes to the results I want to be getting from my life. The big lesson and the big takeaway left me wishing I would have paused and reacted slower. And, as always, the most valuable lessons are usually the most painful. I learned that before I say "yes" to things, I really have to think about how intentional I want to get this coming year. IN THIS EPISODE, WE TALK ABOUT: Pausing before responding Having a scripted safety net ready to respond with Making decisions today with tomorrow in mind Why no response is an amazing response Tuning in to how you really feel RESOURCES Come join me on the GrowthDay app: growthday.com  Sign up for The Spritz newsletter at litepink.com Text DAILY to 310-496-8363 for daily manifesting affirmations and journal prompts.  CONNECT WITH LORIFollow me: @loriharderFollow Lite Pink: @drinklitepinkFollow Earn Your Happy: @earnyourhappyFollow Girlfriends & Business: @girlfriendsandbusinessListen to Girlfriends & Business

One of the most effective life hacks that I’ve discovered is this thing called Parkinson’s Law, which says, “work expands to fill the time available for its completion.” In other words, if you give yourself a month to do something, you’ll take every single day of that month to get it done. But, if you give yourself a week to do that same task, guess what? It will only take you seven days to finish it. I’m really in this season of kicking myself into high gear and maximizing every minute that I schedule in for work. Where can you compress your time and get more done on a faster timeline? IN THIS EPISODE, WE TALK ABOUT: What might be holding you back from getting what you want out into the world How I’m challenging myself with the timeline of my book right now  Looking at where you set cushy, comfortable deadlines for yourself  Why it’s so important to understand and honor what season of life you’re in  RESOURCES Sign up for The Spritz newsletter at litepink.com!

With all the traveling and events that I’ve had going on lately, my healthy routines and habits have fallen to the wayside. Instead of sitting in that discomfort, I decided to challenge myself to a week without sugar, which has given me the reset that I need to get back on track and finish this year super strong. This experience has reinforced the idea for me that if you aren’t hitting your goals, it’s most likely because you’re not getting your mindset and health to that level first.
