Most of us as busy people have a "to do" list. You probably write your list and then cross the items off one by one, usually beginning with the easy things on the list to give yourself a sense of accomplishment. Occasionally, at the end of the day you remember something that you accomplished during the day that wasn't on the list.....so, you stop and put it on your list and cross it off with a flourish. Yes, one more thing accomplished today!
Only one problem, you have been rewarding yourself for doing the least important, fun or easy things. When you reward yourself for doing these things of lesser importance, your to-do list will become a magnet for unimportant activities and small daily chores.
The feeling of being overwhelmed or the fear factor stops us from tackling our biggest challenges and our highly leveraged activities first. Generally when you hesitate or resist doing something the reason is fear of failure. Fear blocks our success. Fear is an expensive habit. Feel the fear and do it anyway!
May I suggest that you reward yourself for doing the critical and most important things and the world will reward you as well. The process of rewarding yourself is called positive reinforcement. When you reward yourself for your successes and your positive actions, you will find that you will have more and more successes...almost effortlessly. Experience the exhilaration of success. You deserve it!
