What happens when your plan starts to crumble? You've been waking up early for the past few months to implement a morning routine and then all of a sudden you start going off the rails. You're hitting the snooze button and saying F$%K IT! I made this episode for you today because for the first time in many years my own Ritual Design has begun to degrade! That might sound dramatic but when you have a big life event (ehhmm...having a baby) things can be thrown for a loop. I've found that certain routines are slipping and certain tasks are not getting the attention they deserve. So today I take you on my journey of how I'm reassessing my own Ritual Design.   If you're looking to learn more about Ritual Design, head over to http://www.upgrademyrituals.com Head over to Amazon today to pick up your copy of the Ritual Design Planner! https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0954N8ZZ2 Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC6z794lRhHJfMVWtys-_Bdw?sub_confirmation=1 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/upgrademyrituals Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/upgrademyrituals

Ep: 56 - How To Reassess Your Daily Routines

The beginning of July marks the heart of the summer...but it also means we're halfway through the year. This is a great time to conduct a mid year review.  What progress are you making on your annual goals? How effective is your Ritual Design? Are you happy with your current domains?   While there are many more things we can track and review at the halfway point, today on the podcast I breakdown my very simple method of checking in at the middle of the year!   If you're looking to learn more about Ritual Design, head over to http://www.upgrademyrituals.com Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC6z794lRhHJfMVWtys-_Bdw?sub_confirmation=1 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/upgrademyrituals Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/upgrademyrituals

Ep: 55 - How To Simplify Your Mid Year Review

 This concept is really important to anyone trying to make progress in their lives. Where we are today in our jobs, family, friendships, physical and mental health are primarily dictated by our subconscious mind. Our deep rooted belief patters tell us whether or not it's even worth trying!   Today on the show I dissect my simplified version of the belief wheel. This is nothing new to the world of personal development but very important. The more we understand it, the more we can use it to our advantage!   If you'd like to get your hands on the Ritual Design planner, as well as a one time founders discount of 30% off, sign up for the launch on 6/14! http://upgrademyrituals.com/coming-soon/   If you're looking to learn more about Ritual Design, head over to http://www.upgrademyrituals.com   Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC6z794lRhHJfMVWtys-_Bdw?sub_confirmation=1   Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/upgrademyrituals   Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/upgrademyrituals           

Ep: 54 - What Is The Belief Wheel And Why It's Crucial To Ritual Design

Happiness is a tricky thing. It feels fleeting and when we do experience it, often times its hard to really know how it came to be. We're just...happy!  Today I break down what I believe happiness actually is and with knowing the true nature, we can begin to try and shape our day to day to cultivate more and more of it!  If you guys are ready to get your hands on the Ritual Design planner, just a little over a week away.

Ep: 48 -The Baby Chronicles Part 2: Does Productivity Really Exist One Month In?!

If you're mind and body is telling you that you need rest, you better listen! The last couple of weeks I took a bit of a break because we had one of those major life events....we had a baby! I knew one thing for sure. There was going to be a slew of uncertainty! I had no idea what to expect so I knew that I would need to take some time off. I still am getting my bearings of my schedule and the lack of sleep. So I thought today would be a great opportunity to talk about some of the details and philosophies that I think about when I take some time off!

Everyone eventually has to a make a pivot. Whether it's a new direction in their career, a different hobby or maybe a new found outlook, making a shift and pivoting is all part of the process. But what you're bound to experience is judgement. Not just judgment from others...but judgment from yourself.

Ep: 46 - Making A Pivot: It's All Part Of The Process

We've probably all at some point had dreams about work. Half the time they're just dreams about doing menial tasks! How annoying! When I'm working I'm working but when I'm sleeping....PLEASE let me sleep! Today on the episode I discuss three easy ways you can avoid having dreams about work leveraging the often overlook AW routine.

Ep: 45 - How To Avoid "Work Dreams"

If you're listening or watching this, that automatically means you have a level of comfort compared to many people in the world. Ultimately we'll always face challenges that come our way and living with certain levels of comfort puts us at a disadvantage.  This is why we must create scenarios to practice getting out of our comfort zones. Create hard situations for yourself whether it's a polar plunge or having that difficult conversation with your Mom. Today I give some thought on my own experience living uncomfortable.   If you're looking to learn more about Ritual Design, head over to http://www.upgrademyrituals.com Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC6z794lRhHJfMVWtys-_Bdw?sub_confirmation=1 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/upgrademyrituals Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/upgrademyrituals

Ep: 44 - Become Comfortable Being Uncomfortable And Step Outside Your Comfort Zone

Today on the podcast, I break down something called the Zeigarnik Effect. This is a realization that when you stop a task in the middle of doing it (writing a sentence, doing homework, etc), you are much more likely to be able to jump right back into the middle of the task. When it comes to Ritual Design and productivity, this could either be a positive or a negative. Take a listen to find out if the Zeigarnik Effect could be used to your benefit!   If you're looking to learn more about Ritual Design, head over to http://www.upgrademyrituals.com Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC6z794lRhHJfMVWtys-_Bdw?sub_confirmation=1 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/upgrademyrituals Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/upgradem

Ep: 43 - The Zeigarnik Effect: How To Take Advantage Of An Immediate Pause In Your Daily Tasks

Have you ever felt completely overwhelmed by all the things that you need to remember? Or even worse, have you had a great idea only to forget it later on? The simple concept of capturing every thought, task and idea that comes into your head is a huge staple of productivity. Today on the podcast, I discuss different strategies to implement a capture system in your own planning efforts.  "Your brain is for having thoughts, not holding them".
