From Procrastinator to Producer: Mastering the Art of Willpower

"Continuous effort - not strength or intelligence - is the key to unlocking our potential." - Winston Churchill

This quote has always resonated with me, and it's something that I keep in mind whenever I need to push through a tough project. In fact, it's a reminder of the power of willpower, which can transform us from procrastinators into producers.

Phrase of the Season - Will It into Existence

We all have seasons in our lives and in our years, and with each season, I am a big fan of having a specific word or phrase to hook onto and come back to. A central anchor that recenters your focus or action in order to accomplish what you truly want or have assessed that you need to do. For me, this season's phrase is 'Will It into Existence.' It's a reminder to exert my energy to make things happen, instead of just waiting for them to come to me.

In the past, I've used a variety of words or phrases as my 'Phrase of the Season.' One year, it was 'posture,' which reminded me to fix how I sit, stand, and carry myself. It was a way to boost my self-confidence, and it worked wonders. Another year, my phrase was 'Just Start,' which was a bit of a copy of Nike's 'Just do it.' I was having trouble getting over the initial hump of starting a project or task, and this phrase helped me to take action and get things done.

Whether it's a word or a phrase, having a 'Phrase of the Season' can help you stay focused and motivated. It's a reminder of what's important to you and what you want to achieve. So if you don't already have one, I highly recommend choosing a phrase that resonates with you and using it as your anchor for this season
