I talk to dozens of studio owners every month…
A word I frequently hear is “overwhelmed”...
They’re overwhelmed with:
Balancing work and family life Filing taxes Learning about marketing Dealing with late payments and missed lessons Finding teachers to hire The “17 hats” they have to wear in running their business How to have a “normal” life when dealing with late teaching hours 100 small tasks each week that eat away at their time Time management The amount of “advice” coming from the Internet Searching for answers to all of these questions and issues Sorting through all of the “advice” and data that could help them solve these problems Trying lots of tactics and feeling frustrated by the perceived lack of results
This is just the beginning of the list… I could go on.
One of my mentors (Steve Chandler) says:
“When we imagine or perceive that we are overwhelmed by outside events (or options, or tough choices, or situations, etc.) it is an illusion! Our brains don’t even work that way.
Only a thought believed can produce a feeling of overwhelm.”
What?!?!?
What is he saying?
Very simple…
We feel overwhelmed when we try to hold in our mind all of the things that we have to do.
This is a form of self-torture because it is impossible to do more than one thing at a time!
