I was recently reminded of one of my favourite quotes and mentioned it in another post (can’t remember where, I must be at that age LOL) and is very relevant and is from the famous scientist Isaac Newton who said:-
"If it appears that I can see further it’s because I am standing on the shoulders of giants".
He obviously felt somewhat humbled by others who had helped him and who he had learned from.

How do you spend 80% of your time
My goal is to spend 80% of my time on the tasks that are going to bring me in the greatest results.
I focus on 3 main areas in my business;
1. Creating and distributing content
2. Creating and delivering new courses / current course content
3. Networking & building relationships
So over the course of a week, I'm constantly looking for ways to get the greatest results in any one of these 3 areas.
If I catch myself spending time doing anything that takes me away from these, then I start to look at how I can systemise and outsource the task I am doing.
However, sometimes life gets in the way and you can get to the end of a whole day or week and realise you've achieved nothing!
That's why it's important to not only plan the week ahead but also review the week behind, so you can highlight some weaknesses and make a note of how you can change / outsource or improve on those areas moving forward.
Remember, you want to spend 80% of your time doing the things that are going to get you the greatest results.
Take some time out today and review last week and plan the week ahead.
Decide today what you want to have accomplished by this time next week and then dive headlong into it tomorrow!

Feel the Fear
Fear is a natural human emotion. It is a ‘negative emotion’ though
it can achieve a positive function. The problem is, fear can take on
a life of its own and become an obstacle. It can paralyse and prevent
growth, happiness and success.
Everyone of us has fears on physical, mental, emotional and spiritual
levels, everything from the fear of death, to the fear of humiliation,
loneliness, rejection, and so on. I will explore some of these shortly.
First is the fear of positive things! People can be afraid of love,
success, intimacy, power, money, even happiness, etc
We fear the consequences around them, such as the fear of loss, of
responsibility, of being seen, of not being good enough, of stepping
outside our comfort zone. We ourselves can create resistances to
achieving those things in our lives.
If there’s something you crave for that you don’t have in your life,
a part of you may be resisting it, you may be afraid of it, whether
that’s money, power, visibility, intimacy, etc.
