Thank you for tuning into my podcast today.
I believe you will enjoy another great topic about ourselves and how we can better manage ourselves.
Today’s topic came up a few times from my work with my clients and conversations with fellow coaches. We talked about self-management, self-regulation or self-control on a daily basis.
Especially now, a lot of business owners and leaders are complaining about being busy all the time. All I hear is “I am busy,” "I am too busy to change because when Monday hits we are already in old habits and working the same way as last week and it is the same cycle, on and on and on, all the time."
Now, if this is you, I will pause you here and ask you to take a deep breath.
Being busy is a choice! It is our responsibility!
Our choice of life. And if you say no that’s not true. I would ask you then, why are you still busy?
Why didn't you stop or pause for a moment and you didn’t re-evaluate what is your priority and what is that you actually do? What is that you do right now costing you in the future? Do you know what future pain you are causing yourself?
You are choosing your life, you are choosing your future pain or maybe you let someone else decide what would be your pain and suffering in the future.
Ok, let’s start from the beginning.
Self-control or self-regulation is one of the leadership skills to build and master.
If you want to be successful in your business, or create amazing relationships and friendships you must master self-control.
Self-control is the ability to regulate and alter your responses in order to avoid negative behaviours or increase some positive and resourceful behaviours to achieve long-term goals. Research has shown that possessing self-control can be important for health and well-being.
A person who has self-control doesn't get distracted easily.
This enables them to manage their time and resources better. They tend to make sustained efforts toward their goals, which are more likely to result in success.
Enjoy your listening
