I sat down with Tamiko Chambers of Starchild Social to talk about mindset, empowerment, taking control and so much more.

SUMMARY

Here's a few notes to summarize my discussion about re-framing our current environment:

1. Stop saying why you can't.
2. Ask yourself why some people who have had pretty tough lives are positive and joyous, while others who have pretty average lives are miserable inside.
3. Know you have extraordinary ability inside.
4. Stop making excuses and become empowered.
5. Ask yourself if there is a benefit to not making a positive change.

 I've been talking to a lot of people recently, from friends and family to clients and the common denominator most people are grappling with is: loss of control.

There has been A LOT of change recently. In the coming week I will be focusing my work with clients on creating order and structure within their day.

SUMMARY

Some reminders to take with you:

1. Focus on what you can control.
2. Honor your emotions so you can focus and not feel stuck.
3. Be flexible.
4. Start your day with a routine.
5. Set benchmarks of success by hour and daily, as necessary.
6. Get up hourly for at least 5 minutes. Grab a snack and water.
7. Avoid eating because you are bored.
8. Get outside.
9. Meet your neighbors.
10. Support each other.
11. Catch up on projects you've been putting off - personal or business.
12. Learn meditation.
13. Take advantage of the various educational, fitness and entertainment apps and virtual tours available for free.
14. Share your successes with each other.

You are going to make it through. You are more...
