Do you work too many hours or push yourself to achieve things even at your own detriment?
You want to be successful, but maybe you’re not clear on what success looks like for you, and confuse it with what the patriarchal definition of productivity looks like – clocking up at least 40 hours a week.
This solo episode was an experiment – recording an Instagram live mini training onto the podcast at the same time, with any free flow imperfections that brought, so turn the volume down a bit for better audio.
The session focused on your relationship with five factors which influence how you get stuck in a rat race at work and in your business – your relationship with success, with yourself, with productivity, with achievement, and with comparison with others.
Listen to this episode to learn more about:
- How do you define what successful means?
The inner work we do helps us level up in our business too - Masculine energy and definition of performance rules, meaning working 40 plus hours a week to be ‘productive’.
- Corporate hangover – need to be constantly doing something to be productive, face time at the office
- Attaching your self-worth to achievement, then you will feel like a failure when you make a mistake
- Comparisonitis and how understandable it is
When you DO address these patterns, you can start to build more enjoyment.
As it is SO common to get stuck into these patterns of overworking, please share this episode and talk to your friends about it. It is possible to unpick and change these patterns.
