What steps can you take to increase your chances of being successful? This month, we’ve been looking at defining your own idea of success and how you can gain clarity around this. With those pieces of the puzzle in place, it’s now time to go after that vision. We’re sharing five steps you can take that will lead you to success.

1. Setting Goals

The first thing to do is set yourself some specific goals—ones you can measure. We talked about this at the beginning of the year. However, with more clarity around what success means to you, those goals might need to...

If you want to achieve success, you need clarity and preparation. As we discussed in the newsletter, success is something you get to define. But there are a few things you need to do before you can make this happen, whatever area of life you focus on. As busy mums and mumpreneurs, we tend to put aside the things we want. Consequently, we end up unprepared and lacking clarity. To change this, here are five ways to prepare for success.

1. Clearly Communicate What You Want

One of the most important factors is to get clear on your idea of success. It is only once you’ve done this...

When someone talks about you looking after your wellbeing, it can seem like a huge concept. If you’re already feeling overwhelmed, it may feel like an impossible task. But sometimes, it’s the small things that can make the difference. So, we’re sharing seven of our favourite quick tips for wellbeing. Pick one and give it a go!

1. Get In Nature

We talk a lot about getting amongst nature but that’s because it’s effective. There are many different takes on this. For example, forest bathing where you just sit amongst trees is growing in popularity. But...

Being busy has become something of a status symbol in recent times. It is almost as if we’re in competition to see how much we can cram into a day. Many people never get to clear their desk at work, however many hours they put in. As mums and mumpreneurs, we’re left with multiple responsibilities which we’re constantly trying to juggle. Whereas it was once the norm for children to have just one hobby, now there is pressure to be taking them to an inconceivable number of activities. The message we get is if we don’t manage to do a million and one things in the day,...

Got something you want to achieve but the motivation is flagging? In our last blog post, we looked at how understanding your “why” is essential in your motivation. But if that’s not enough, then don’t worry. We’re sharing seven more ways to keep motivated.

1. Get An Accountability Buddy

We are far more likely to achieve a goal if we share it with someone else. This is often because we don’t want to let them down or have the embarrassment of saying we haven’t made any progress. You can either find someone who is trying to achieve a similar...

You may find your motivation waning. For example, perhaps you told yourself that you would reward yourself with a slice of cake when you completed a task. But now, you don’t care. You’re going to have that slice of cake, regardless. But you also know it’s important to push through this tricky patch and keep going. What can you do to stay motivated?

As we discussed in last month’s newsletter, there are two forms of motivation: extrinsic and intrinsic. Outside rewards such as a slice of cake are extrinsic forms of motivation. While these are much easier to set-up and...

How long has it been since your mind felt serene? If it’s been a while, then this blog post is for you. We're used to decluttering physical spaces, but we don't often talk about this in terms of our brains. But decluttering your mind will help you achieve more and improve your mental wellbeing. Here are five tips on how you can do precisely that.

1. Write Things Down 

We can spend all day distracted from what we're supposed to be focusing on because so many other things pop into our heads. This clutter slows our brains. Rather than trying to hold everything in your...

Some things that clutter up our minds can be easy to spot. For example, we often know that we’re trying to hold too much information in our minds, yet we still do it. However, there are a few things that are not so easy to recognise. Not only do they clutter our minds, but they also put an enormous obstacle in our path. Today, we’re sharing three sneaky obstacles that may have slipped into your life unnoticed.

1. So-called Friends

Just because someone is your friend doesn’t mean that they are a real one. It’s a sad fact of life that sometimes those we are...

"Whether you think you can or whether you think you can’t, you’re right.”   

Henry Ford

Most people will have heard this quote at some point. What you believe can determine your success levels. But what do you do if you realise you don’t have much belief or faith in your abilities to achieve the goals you’ve set out for 2022? Do you just give up? Of course not. But you will need to develop your self-belief if you want to achieve them. That’s why in this blog post, we’re sharing with you, three ways in which your can develop faith and...

The Key To Success?

You’ve set out your goals for the year. You’ve even created a roadmap of how you intend to get there. What else can you do to give yourself the best chance of success?

In this month’s newsletter, we looked at a range of successful people from Oprah Winfrey to Jim Carrey. What they all had in common was belief in themselves and faith that they would achieve their goals. Sure, you could put this down to just being coincidence. But the truth is, they really do play a role in how successful you are. In this post, we explain why that is.
