By that I mean what are some powerful and simple basic applied techniques or behaviors that are really useful you’ve developed or discovered in your life that makes things work or improve.

Lets keep them simple and powerful 🧙‍♂️

Let people on the phone know that you don’t mind if something is taking a bit longer and that you’re cool and with them whatever happens. Say something like, its okay I’m not in a rush ☺️

They’ll appreciate taking some of the pressure off and showing you are a receptive audience (you’re rooting for them) and I’ve found it to get superior outcomes since I started doing it, even tho I was always generally polite previously

Always determine the first action or step to a task/project to give you a specific, predetermined place to start on the task and get your first “win” towards completing it before you add it to your task list

You can decide on the rest later but get your subconscious working on it by making that first decision and the rest you can leave until you’ve completed step 1
