BRX Pro Tip: Remove Things That Are Not Working
Stone Payton: [00:00:00] Welcome back to Business RadioX Pro Tips. Stone Payton Lee Kantor here with you. Lee, there’s a lot of wisdom in exercising the discipline I think and, you know, taking stock now and being willing to remove the things in your life that aren’t working.
Lee Kantor: [00:00:18] Yeah. I think this is an area that a lot of people, their first move is to add that if something isn’t working, they want to add something to whatever is going on now and then see if that works. And so, they add things to their systems and their processes. And I think if you spend as much time thinking about the things that aren’t working and removing them and try to add by subtracting, then you’re going to be better off. If you hold all of your systems, processes, and behaviors accountable and ask yourself, are they still serving you or are they still – are you still winning by doing them? Are you – is this something that’s still worth doing? And if they’re not working for you, then get rid of them.
Lee Kantor: [00:01:02] All of a sudden, if you start removing some of these things that at one point might have worked great but aren’t working anymore, getting rid of them is going to free up mental energy. Maybe you’ve been frustrated by them or you’re procrastinating because you don’t like it and you don’t think it’s working but it’s still on your to-do list and you just kind of, you know, getting you to be burnt out on your situation.
Lee Kantor: [00:01:27] Check-in with yourself regularly and stop doing the things that aren’t paying off. A lot of times we’re just doing the thing we did yesterday because we did it yesterday and there really isn’t a reason to do it today. There are lots of things in your life that at one time made perfect sense to do that just doesn’t make sense to do anymore. So, hold all of these processes, these systems, these behaviors accountable and get rid of the ones that aren’t serving you.
