Just as DRIVEN has been exploring key topics in business and life success, including time management and energy management, I personally have been applying these lessons to my own life as DRIVEN’s founder. After all, if I don’t walk the talk, I shouldn’t be the one encouraging others to work hard toward living more productive, engaged and energized lives.
In honoring this obligation to myself and our business community, last June, while preparing for Laura Vanderkam’s address to our select group of women, I identified a half-dozen key success goals to add to the firm dedication to daily exercise and gratitude in my life. These were the central activities and efforts that would result in a more satisfying, zen-like existence to complement my pedal-to-the-metal career life. Over time, I’ve created a routine to incorporate all six of these good habits into each day. And the amazing part: it all happens during the first 90 minutes of my day! Not only is this healthful to my body and mind, but it frees up my time and energy in the event that a dear friend in need should reach out to me unexpectedly.
