 What happens if you fail to follow your calendar? Let's say that you've scheduled to do some important work that you know is going to move your business or Project forward, but the time came and you didn't do the thing that you'd scheduled now the typical reaction is maybe self-blame discouragement or maybe even Self-doubt to say well, there's no way I know how to follow a calendar. I I'm just not that type of person So you start having these limiting beliefs that oh, I'm just a go with the flow type That's all I ever be or now not that that's a bad thing, but what's interesting is that if you look at the lives of the most successful creative people the most prolific authors of books or the most prolific movie directors or artists painters musicians they create consistently and They do it oftentimes by having a schedule of creation Many famous authors are known for saying that listen I just sit down to write at 9 a.m. Every day and I write until 12 o'clock or 1 o'clock Whatever it be no matter if the inspiration is there or they have they have because they've been so consistent with their schedule They've learned to develop inspiration at that time And I've discovered that to be the same for me, too I used to not believe that I could create on a schedule and then after Some practice I realized that wow Somehow I have ideas when I need to have them when I'm on schedule and it works now But what happens if you fail to follow it? Let me give you an encouragement first of all Be gentle with yourself. Just be gentle. Take some breaths Know that it's a Schedule just like any other skill like walking like writing like speaking is a skill that takes time and Practice to develop to be able to do well So don't expect you to be yourself to be able to suddenly do it You know Not be able to one day and then suddenly will do it the next day and consistently right? It's a skill So be gentle with yourself number two know that it's possible Use me as the example someone who never was able to do it and then eventually learn how to do it And now I my business thrives because I'm able to create on a schedule and I enjoy it now Whereas I didn't used to so know that it's possible be gentle with yourself know that know that it's a process Know that it's possible and thirdly Get curious about why you didn't follow the schedule this time Because there's something you can do differently the next time to maybe follow your schedule a little bit better So for example, maybe you didn't follow your schedule this time because the thing you were doing prior to what you were supposed to do Went a lot much longer than you expected. So maybe the learning there is oh, I need to schedule more time for that previous thing in the future or maybe Another learning might be oh, I got really intimidated about doing this thing that's on my calendar Then maybe the solution there is to say oh next time. I need to chunk down this intimidating project So it doesn't give me as much anxiety. I need to think about smaller pieces of it and schedule to do the smaller pieces Or maybe you realize From asking yourself the question getting curious. How why is it that this time? It didn't work and what might I do differently next time? Maybe you realize that you have a limiting belief that no There's no way to be to be in flow and to be creative in my genius on schedule and then the Solution might be to say well, I'm just going to try anyway and see what comes out and let what comes out be Perfect as it is in this moment Because I'll tell you I just keep making these videos and some of them turn out to be very well liked and some of them turn out not to be and I keep writing my blog posts. I write many of them some of them turn out to be very well liked and some of them turn out Not to be and honestly, I feel pretty much the same all the time When I first came into this park I actually honestly wasn't feeling very inspired to make make these videos But I did it anyway and this one turned out. Okay, I guess so be gentle with yourself know that it's a process Know that it's possible for you Don't have that limiting belief and third get curious about why it didn't work and how you can do it differently the next time I hope this is helpful
