Your office?  If so, you'll want to try using this ONE question to help you declutter and feel more organized in your life. Imagine discovering this simple question that can transform your life.  First, what is clutter? Google says clutter is a collection of things lying about in an untidy mass.

Ask this every time you leave a room. Every time you move on from one project to another. Every time you feel overwhelmed (cluttered in your mind). You can also ask it every time you feel doubt in your business or when you're standing in your kitchen looking around in awe at the mess around you. In the podcast, I share a bunch of examples of how I use this in my life, how my clients use it, and areas you could try to use it. I like to compare the process to an unexpected example. Intrigued?

25 | Organize Your Emotions as You Grow Your Business with Rhonda Farr

Does this sound familiar? You're trying to grow your coaching business. One day you're on top of the world because you signed a new client. The next week you didn't follow your plan (feel shame), are so behind on your never-ending tech-nightmare to-do list (feel frustration), you haven't gotten a single response from any of your social media posts (feel embarrassed), and just want to quit it all.  But then you decide you don't want to give up the flexibility (feel hope) and really want to help people (feel purpose-filled) so you restart and continue on. Repeat that with 10 additional emotions at least once or twice a month.  The back and forth, the quitting, the embarrassment, the doubt, the frustration from tech, the disorganization, the passion, the purpose,... it's all too much. But what if there's a better way to manage it? To think about it? To experience it? In the depths of despair and uncertainty, Rhonda Farr found herself face-to-face with a pivotal decision on a bathroom floor. Little did she know, this moment of vulnerability would unlock the key to success in her entrepreneurial journey. By embracing her emotions of shame, embarrassment, fear, and worry, Rhonda discovered the astonishing power of emotional intelligence. Listen to this episode to hear her remarkable story of personal growth and transformation. It'll leave you wondering... What could happen if I, too, choose to face my emotions head-on? And what does feeling my emotions really mean? Listen to the episode to find the answers. Rhonda helps high-achieving men create more emotional intimacy in their romantic relationships. She believes emotions are the foundation for connection and growth in our society as a whole. The better we get at tolerating emotions, the more we can create.
