Sara’s View of Life with Sara Troy, on air from January 9th
Well here we are, 2024, so far it has been filled with a nasty RSV virus which went through the whole family, but that is not going to hold me back, I have things to accomplish in 2024.
It was not a great start to a new year; the RSV virus rapid, my nose blocked, my chest coughing, I was tired, etc., but I have things to do, so virus, you have had your day, and it is time for me to get going.
I published my own book last year, just an e-book for now, paperback and audio coming. I have had a really nice feedback on it, and that is a nice feeling. Now time for the next book Our Forgotten Children series. I have a Authors summit to do this week, create all their authors page, and finalize the book to go to the publisher. If all goes well and no more delays, the book will be out by the end of February.
I am in two more anthology books, coming out soon, plus starting the Ask the Authors platform. So there is no time for sickness, but production. Although I know, that if I do not allow for healing, it will prolong the illness and slow me down even more.
So when we get these rude interruptions, how do we manage them? First, allow the first 24 hours of illness or chaos to reveal its self, then access what the best action is.
Step one: If ill, rest, water, sleep. If you are sick, you are not good to anyone, so look after yourself. I know it is hard when you have obligations, but delegate, postpone, and allow yourself through the?first 48 hours at least to get over the hump.
Step Two: If it is a delay, interruption or flat out crisis in your business, do not react until you have taken a breath, walked away to recalibrate, and calmed down so you can access the issue without panic. You can not think straight while in a crisis mode, so go do what you need to do so you an come back calm and clear and then you will see a solution to the problem.
Step Three: Delegate; passing something on that you cannot deal with now is ok. If there is no one to pass on to, then postpone; if people need help understanding, do you want them as clients anyway? Do not compromise yourself to please someone else.
Step Four: If it can’t be done today, there is always tomorrow. I know this all too well. Things pile up even though you thought you had paced them well, haha; a traffic jam is now on your plate, and you feel panicked about it. Could you put off what is not urgent and address what needs to be addressed right now? Then, with the next item, you will get it all done without panic and with more clarity.
These are my new year tips. it is where I am right now. A head full of cold, but projects to deal with. So I do what I can bit by bit, and allow my self to rest, recoup and renew my energy to get fully back in the game.
It is ok to say NO, To Postpone, To delegate, to redirect. If you push yourself too hard, you will accomplish nothing.
So happy New Year to everyone, may 2024 be kind to us and may we fulfill the dreams we have for this year with some ease.
