| | Dear ally, Are Your "To Do's" Too Much? If you want to listen to this message, click here. How are you doing on whittling down your "to do" list these days? Do you find your days seem really full of activity and busyness, but at the end of the day that "to do" list has barely been touched? Lists are great for organizing tasks, for delegation and for planning, but without taking time for self-acknowledgement, the "to do's" can feel like they are starting to become too much. Don't make the mistake that how many things you cross off that "to do" list determines how productive and effective a person you are. It's a trap to look for your self-worth from the size of your "to do" list. What's truly important is to take the time to pause and acknowledge what you have done and the difference you are making in the world every day. Without taking the time to celebrate and acknowledge, many people compensate by adding way too many things on their plate. There's a need inside each of us for love and acknowledgement, and the best person to fill that need is ourselves. Self-acknowledgement isn't about getting narcissistic or self-absorbed at all. It's about taking time to honor yourself on a daily basis for not just the "things" you do, but the woman you are. These don't have to be monumental accomplishments, like winning the Nobel Peace Prize or selling your company for a zillion dollars. I'm talking about the moments where you allow your true brilliance to come forward. It could be in a difficult conversation with a joint venture partner, or making the decision to leave the computer and go to the yoga studio for a mind-body break. I'm always looking to find that beautiful, divine balance between WHAT I am DOING instead of tuning into WHO I am BEING. When you are living in your full brilliance, you understand that the key to sustained presence, power and peace of mind comes from your ability to acknowledge yourself on a consistent and heartfelt basis. Make it an amazing day! Carolyn Ellis
