By that I mean what are some powerful and simple basic applied techniques or behaviors that are really useful you’ve developed or discovered in your life that makes things work or improve.
Lets keep them simple and powerful 🧙♂️
Let people on the phone know that you don’t mind if something is taking a bit longer and that you’re cool and with them whatever happens. Say something like, its okay I’m not in a rush ☺️
They’ll appreciate taking some of the pressure off and showing you are a receptive audience (you’re rooting for them) and I’ve found it to get superior outcomes since I started doing it, even tho I was always generally polite previously
Write it down/put on your calendar now. You’re not going to remember to do it later and then you’ll completely forget it. Even if you’re sure you’ll remember it this time, you won’t. Just write it down. And make a habit of checking your calendar frequently. Like multiple times a day. Putting it in your calendar and never seeing it again doesn’t help.
Schedule just about everything. Even the things you didn’t think you’ll need to schedule. Schedule what time you’re going to work out, or play video games. Put an event in your calendar to make that phone call to your insurance company at a specific time instead of remembering to do it after they’re closed every time.
I love my phone for that.
Write it down, now!
I go by: when you remember it, do it. If you can’t do it now, mark it down in an appropriate manner: list, alarm, calendar, note, whatever. If you can’t be bothered to mark it down, it’s not important.
I keep a calander widget on my phone homescreen that shows my upcoming events.
