🌟 Feeling burnt out? You aren’t alone. Let's share, vent, & connect with Ask an Expert guest, Chanique Stewart 🌟

That’s a huge commitment to yourself to meditate twice a day. I applaud you on going from within to be becoming a better leader for your community.

I highly recommend to understand your your learning style and observe your personal work behaviour for me. I work best when there is some form of background noise, which would help me ultimately focus, and that may not be realistic for most people but for me, I get distracted very easily so what I like to do I go on YouTube and I search library ambient noise with timer and there is a video that has an hour on 10 minutes off which I will dedicate an hour focus time with that background noise and then 10 minutes off to do absolutely what I want to do whether that it is scrolling on Instagram whether that’s having a chat with a friend or family whether that is changing up to a different task that’s what helps me so I do Encourage you to understand what you’re working style is . Mind you that is for admin office work.

I recommend figuring out your circadian rhythm and chronotype if possible using that as a guideline on how you as a person operates and focus. From their then try and schedule your task within those time frames and dedicate a specific amount of time to each task.

. I wouldn’t love to know your employee dynamics..How often do you see one given employee within the week and my first suggestion is to have an honest conversation with your employees and ask them what that actually looks like for them what activities would you like to see implant either in work or offered to help reduce your stress and then you can determine if that’s something that you can actually implement or variation to it.

One thing I learned when it comes to business is the best business is the one who knows the market better the one who knows the market better do the best research. You can implement that within most areas of your business. The business that has the best employee morale has the better research and understanding of their employees.

The most accurate way to please your employees is to ask them how they can better show up and get that answer directly from them. Also if there is a manager or someone else that works really close to your team, depending on the dynamics of the scope of work you provide and not to sure what business you’re in then you can ask that individual and get an idea of the conversations  within employees and what they’ve observed so that you could possibly give them a activity/ incentive that is gear too, but it would actually help them .

It sounds like you’re ready to get yourself a virtual assistant or an assistant and if you were in the call today, you would’ve heard that it is more expensive not to invest in that because of that fatigue and that frustration you need to offload that work.  Take it into consideration it takes the team to scale and you’re doing an amazing job with 50 consistent customers believe me think to yourself if you got 50 more consistent you would know it’s time to get yourself some admin help

It’s a great thing to know that self-aware and understand the outcome of not resolving and sorting this out it is burnout, and it can lead to resentment frustration trickle down to wanting to close on the business.

I once watched a video. It was titled what I would’ve done faster to become a millionnaire and the top three was delegate and for more reason than just mental. But also scalability you can do it all. There’s no doubt about that but in order for you you must delegate those down without knowing your business your numbers I can’t guarantee to give you the specific task that need to be delegated right away and or automated

but I can’t say your first sign would be the areas you tend forget, or silly make mistakes first are things you need to start automating or dedicating.  Next tasks that you simply  do not enjoy doing,delegate them.

This is a a layered question and I am always a person to go within and then take into the practical and move forward.

 I would first question how aligned are you with your business and values? When was the last time you revisited them and understand why you’re doing what you’re doing; how it impacts you your future, impacts your employees and client needs. when’s the last time you revisit that question and got aligned with it?

Next, this is also why it’s important to be aware of your business values and vision because you can then align your daily operations how you manage your business your employees and your clients to stay within that vision.  Answering this question your daily operation. Your business should be serving those needs on a daily basis.

For example our values in my business is honesty, creativity and integrity. Everything that is done in my business how we communicate with our clients our team needs to be aligned with that because those are essentially  that need to be met.

I’m hoping I’m understanding your question because there is that needs in regarding to relieve that stress and burn out and then theirs is because those are essentially the needs that need to be met. I’m hoping I’m understanding your question because there is that needs in regarding to relieve that stress and burnouts and then there’s The needs to keep the business running(monetary needs and labour equipment) and I don’t think that’s what you were referring to. I hope this helps and gives you a direction.

I personally have not found success with blocking.

 There’s nothing wrong with trying and figuring out what work for you

 I have been doing very well with big threes. Daily biggest three task that need to be done today to move the needle in my business and it leaves me room to be flexible with other things.

Ouuu the food choices is. Great one!  Sounds solid 

Thank you for sharing !

You are strong.

The words to speak is powrful. Life is precious.

 I appreciate you sharing that you start work later where a lot of new entrepreneurs or entrepreneurs caught in the hustle cycle think  that 5 AM is the multimillionaire starter kit where I myself too will give myself late starts in the day because I’m actually night owl so I do my most productive work between the times of three and 6 PM . I love the fact that you stay true to what works for you making your life and your business work the way you desire to
