Did you ever feel as though you were chasing your tail?

 

If you work within a corporation, or any business, or have a life at all, I’m sure you can identify with this feeling.

 

Luckily (despite the economy), I’m very busy with executive coaching and speaking, but it does require lots of flexibility … the changing demands of clients, shifting airline schedules, and coping with family/life issues (in my case, four generations).

 

These factors all make it very difficult to have things go as planned or smoothly.

The way I’m coping is to:

 

  • Breathe
  • Plan (lay it out on paper)
  • Prioritize
  • Be flexible
  • Have a sense of humor

 

I also practice living in the present, appreciating that our only true reality is the here and now.

 

And, for now, living and meeting challenges is sure better than the alternative!
