Keep It Simple.
🤯 Humans overcomplicate things.
This is true when it comes to...well...almost everything. The tendency (mine included!) is to try and figure out every angle of a situation, every element that needs to be improved or solved for. This can lead to confusion, slow progress, and analysis paralysis.
🤔 The reality? Often the best thing you can do is pick three simple, actionable steps to take to begin making progress. Once you’ve seen some changes and you’re in a good rhythm? Add three more.
💪 Trying to boost your health and wellness? Start simple: 1) Drink more water, 2) get more (consistent) sleep, 3) walk more. Once you’ve nailed those, move onto another three.
📈 Trying to focus your team? You don’t need 15 KPIs. That creates a world of distribution. Narrow it down. Start with three: 1) Topline revenue, 2) profit margin, 3) retention (client, team, donor, etc. depending on your organization).
🛑 When you find yourself going down the rabbit hole of complexity, try and hit pause. Take a step back and zoom out. What are the three things that are doable and that can make a real difference? Start there.
