“Success is never a straight line, and it will never be. Part of achieving that goal are the hardships along the way.  When it gets difficult, it is often right before you succeed.” – Chris Darrett
 
Lately, I have heard many of my clients share that they feel overwhelmed by their daily tasks. The workload due to organizational changes is such that everything feels like a priority, and the working hours go from 40 to 50 or 60 hours per week.  They are asking for help to fit everything in and for their efforts to make a difference for their teams and organizations and personal growth.  My guest and I will dig into being overwhelmed and burnt out and discuss real strategies to help you move from surviving to thriving.

“Balance is not better time management, but better boundary management.  Balance means making choices and enjoying those choices.” – Betsy Jacobson. Lately, many people in their 30s have asked me how I was able to start a business, raise my two boys (who played travel hockey from the age of 5), and maintain a marriage for 32 years. 
The short answer is that I just put one foot in front of the other. Truly, there was no master's plan when I was in my 30s, knowing how to create a wonderful business and life.  I’ve learned to set clear boundaries with every choice, but that has come over time. 
This is why I chose this quote for today. It always boils down to boundaries and choices. We are the only ones who can control our future, so setting clear boundaries that you can live with is crucial.

“When you begin to talk in stories, your black-and-white words turn into color.  Your drab requests turn into a mission.  People find you to be more compelling.  And once that happens, others will see that stories work, and they’ll start telling stories, too.”  – Annette Simmons

“Decide which direction you are going in and take action. One decision at a time, one moment at a time.” — Akiroq Brost. I chose this quote today because you have heard me end my podcast episodes with the notion that learning new information is a beautiful thing. Doing nothing with that new knowledge and not taking action is a choice you and I get to make every day.  
 
It's not uncommon to hear of people who strongly desire to change their lives, seek knowledge, and then do nothing with the information they've learned. I know I am an action-taker.  Are you an action taker to create the change you are seeking? 
 
Today, I will discuss WHY we sabotage the change we’re seeking with my guest so that we can be aware of how it happens. Hopefully, this will help us keep moving forward.

“Health is a state of complete harmony of the body, mind, and spirit. When one is free from physical disabilities and mental distractions, the gates of the soul open.” - B.K.S. Iyengar. I have changed many habits over the past 20 years, where I practice mind, body, and spirit daily so I and my business can thrive. It took me a long time to consider self-care a necessity, not a luxury.  Initially, I thought taking time for myself was selfish, and I felt like I was letting all the people around me, including my family, down.   
 
We are all works in progress.  We must keep reiterating to build our best habits and sustain a healthy, happy, long life.

“Music touches us emotionally, where words alone can't.” – Johnny Depp. Growing up, my older siblings took piano lessons.  I wanted nothing to do with it.  I wanted to go outside with my friends, run, play ball, ride my bike, jump off the swing set in our backyard, and just be free to play. 
 
Today, there are so many benefits for children's brain development that music can tap into and help children learn quicker just by understanding that music can be learned like a native language.  I want to repeat that - Music can be learned like a native language. 
Are you intrigued?

About Chris Salter:  
Chris has a deep background in linguistics and music and has studied potential crossovers for decades. In 2001, Chris created the original Piano Wizard company and concept and launched products in 2005. 2008 hit, and most of the company's deals collapsed, forcing them to retrench, barely surviving. Chris then launched a home school educational version (www.PianoWizardAcademy.com) that changed lives, leading Chris and his team to pivot to the profound cognitive impact of Music Brain Training.
