MMM… Perfection, saying ‘no’, and taking action

If you’re starting the year feeling less than motivated, first of all know that you’re not alone, secondly, try the MMM’s to help you get clear on your next steps.

1. Magick: Something for you to journal about

Are you applying what you’ve learnt or is it a permanent resident in your head?

In today’s information saturated world, it’s easy to have lots of great ideas, to read about all the things you can do to improve your life. But how much do you actually apply, and how much stays on your mental to-do list.

The more information we consume and add to the to-do-one-day-list, the more overwhelmed we can feel and the less action we take as we look for the elusive ‘perfect’ answer.

Remember, is doesn’t have to be perfect to be great.

★ Tip: Get honest with yourself. Perhaps that great idea isn’t actually great for you or your lifestyle – if that’s the case let it go. But perhaps you’re not taking action as a form of sabotage or procrastination – if so, get support to navigate the situation.

2. Mastery: Something for you to think about

What do you need to say ‘no’ to?

What activities are you saying ‘yes’ to because you don’t want to impose on someone else or make it their responsibility?

Why do you believe their needs are more important than your own?

By saying ‘no’ more often, you have more time to focus on the things that light you up and keep you aligned with your own path in life.

You also have more time to rest and restore your energy.

You don’t need to be busy to say ‘no’. You’re allowed to say ‘no’, because you don’t want to be busy.

★ Tip: Listen to episode 53: Creating better boundaries in your relationships, on my podcast A Pinch of Magick.

3. Momentum: Action for you to take

Take action.

When people aren’t sure where to start, they often look for more information.

But you don’t need more information, you need to take action.

Once you take action, you get feedback on what’s working and what’s not. From that information you can make a choice based on fact and amend your actions.

But when you’re just whirring ideas in your head and waiting for the ‘right’ time, you just end up taking no action at all.

★ Tip: Remember taking big, bold action is often not sustainable. Try taking smaller steps more often.

I’d love to know which of the three MMM’s you’re going try so that you can make more room for magick in your life, let me know over in our community.

Let’s create more magick!
