A cure for overwhelm

Recently I have been working on putting systems in place to simplify my daily routines. Over the past year I have been subscribing to lots of ezines and newsletters, downloading free reports and ebooks, and getting on LOTS of email lists. Tell me you’re in that same boat, too… Anyway, several months ago I finally created rules in Outlook so that most of those emails went into separate folders which I could look at if I wanted to. Wow – what a relief that was.

Time passes and wouldn’t you know it, those newsletter don’t get looked at and all those emails about calls that will change my life, (or certainly my business) are just clogging up my mailbox and draining all my energy.  For some reason I have been thinking that the perfect solution is there on the next teleconference. And actually, I found a very nice coach and mastermind group to join because I listened to the “right” teleconference. It was a good match at that instant, and is the direction I am taking for six months.

Today in my *first* mastermind group the lovely ladies there told me to just unsubscribe from all that stuff and quit worrying about it.  So, I am passing on that I have spent time unsubscribing from all those lists. It may take another week or two to catch them all, but when I need more information to get me through another curve in my road, I can find more people to follow.

And so can you.

Stay tuned Wednesday for a big event – I am participating in a Virtual Book Tour for one of my VA colleagues. Come back and see what it’s all about!
