At netball, the coach observed that whenever players took an unexpected intercept, they threw the ball away almost immediately, often losing possession because they weren’t strategic and focussed on the pass.
‘If you get the ball, plant both feet on the ground,’ she said. ‘Pause… then make your next move …’
What a great metaphor for handling life. ‘Plant your feet and pause’ has all kinds of useful applications at work, in relationships and financially. It’s advice that could stop us from taking those over-excited actions that so often sabotage our success.
Don’t get us wrong, we’re big on spontaneity. Sometimes it’s the swift, decisive action you take on impulse that’s the right choice. But flying by the seat of your pants can also mess things up. It’s risky throwing caution to the wind.
In a lot of situations, the magic’s in the pause.
We’re learning this right now, because we’re changing things up! We’re in the process of sharpening our focus and direction, re-branding and re-launching after 7 years of operating as My 15 Minutes. Don’t worry … we’re not ditching our beloved programs, rather we’re infusing new life, energy and ways of delivery. The ways we engage with our world have changed so much over the last 7 years. We’re feeling a call for regrowth and regeneration, and we’d love you to be part of it.
It’s our delirium about these changes that could be our downfall. As unattractive as it feels sometimes to drag our heads out of the clouds and plant our feet on the ground, that’s exactly what we need to do now.

More free things: 30-minute Clarity Call
You know that issue you’ve been mulling over? The worry you can’t shake? It’s that problem keeping you awake night and every time you think of it by day, your heart sinks a little.
We want to give you 30 minutes off our time to talk through that. We can’t promise we’ll wave a magic wand and fix it for you completely, but you’ll leave the phone session with at least one practical step to take. How lovely it will feel to be in momentum towards handling the situation that’s been troubling you for too long.
The feedback on our free clarity sessions has been fantastic, with people writing to us months (or even years) after a session to let us know how pivotal it was. We’d love that result for you, too.
At the end of each session, we usually run through some ways we can help you more deeply if that’s what you’re looking for (and not everyone is). Please be comforted — this is not a ‘sales pitch’. It’s a chance for us to share some of the work we do, and we can always send you more info by email if something resonates with you.
