Circumstances Do Not Dictate Outcomes!

Do you ever feel overwhelmed by your circumstances? 

You may have heard me say that opportunity is just a set of circumstances...facts or conditions that surround you. But is it possible to have so many opportunities or circumstances that we get stuck and can't make ANY progress? Well, sure, it's possible...so what do about it?

When you are feeling overwhelmed by circumstances, it is rarely the volume of opportunity that is causing the problem (that doesn't change very much over time). Rather, it is the relative weight you are assigning to the opportunity or the outcome.

Sometimes, the weight is appropriate...get out of the street or be hit by that truck...but more often than not, the weight is arbitrary, just something you made up. If you made it up, you can change it!

In my life and business coaching practice, I see this a lot around goals (or expectations of outcomes). You start a business and expect million dollar results in the first year...then when it doesn't happen, or it's slow, you start looking at everything you need to do to improve...and there's a lot...and BOOM...you're overwhelmed!

This is one reason I came up with the P4F model for planning and GSD. It will help you find the five most important things to focus on today and prioritize them to create results. 

I've made a short video about P4F and how it works. You can find it on my website at www.ThomRigsby.com/P4F. If you're feeling overwhelmed, take a 6-minute breather and watch the video...it will change your life!
Enjoy!
