    #396 - What’s on My Someday List

    I talk about the concept of The Someday List in my most recent book, The PLAN, and it’s something I came up with as a reframe of goals and dreams. Instead of changing my thinking in order to make goals and dreams work or ignoring them altogether, I changed the phrasing and posture to more fully align with how I personally view my life and time. And that reframe is The Someday List.  Helpful Companion Links Order my new book The PLAN or ask your library to consider carrying a copy. Sign up for the Latest Lazy Listens email.

    #393 - What’s Saving My Life

    I keep thinking I’ll get tired of this practice since I do it every quarter, but as time goes on, I love it even more. The regular rhythm of noticing your life and naming what’s saving it, what’s making it light or grounded or joyful or even tolerable in certain seasons, is immensely helpful in being an integrated, content person. Let’s name where we are and what’s helping us be there right now.  Helpful Companion Links Pre-order my new book The PLAN or ask your library to consider carrying a copy once it releases in October.

    #391 - 7 Things You Shouldn’t Expect Your Planner to Do

    Alright, let’s huddle up. It’s the middle of November. Now that Halloween is over and we’re into the November swing, the avalanche of holiday stuff falls fast. The other thing that can sometimes happen this time of year is you start seeing ads for new planners. Most of us want a new one before the year is over so that we can start the new year fresh and ready to go, so planner-ordering energy is starting to wake up. I want you to remember that your planner is not magic. It is simply a tool to help you organize certain aspects of your life. The problem is that we often expect more from it than it has the capacity to give, so today, let’s talk about the 7 things you shouldn’t expect your planner to do. Helpful Companion Links Order my new book The PLAN or check to see if your library has a copy available for loan. The Playbooks are here! Find out more about them here.

    #390 - How to Make Decisions with a Big Group

    My guess is you come across these fairly often but most certainly this time of year. Making decisions with a big group usually starts with someone in that group asking “what are we going to do about [fill in the blank]?” And the decision fatigue and task paralysis begin. So whether that’s you and your in-laws with the Thanksgiving split, you and friends with your annual holiday party, or you and your immediate family with gift giving, I think this episode will be helpful.
