You must have some notion of where you want to be

You must have some notion of where you want to be with your finances. Facebook published a study that showed that 61% of consumers expressed concern with their ability to weather a large, unexpected expense, and 59% expressed concern with their ability to provide for themselves and their family “With the outbreak of COVID-19, consumers are craving advice and information now more than ever to help map a path to financial health.” What’s more, 46% ages 35 and older expressed interest in Facebook groups that provide financial content. Overall, 42% of respondents said they’re interested in private groups to exchange and share financial information and advice. Is that you? Is discussing personal finances publicly a road too far for you? How about a private group? Or off of Facebook altogether where you could be more anonymous?

Getting into a groove with a new habit can move yo

Getting into a groove with a new habit can move you forward. There is a lot of research that even minor adjustments to your way of doing things can make a big difference. Apply this thinking to a new adventure in your life and now you’re doing more than thinking about doing. “In order to design successful habits and change your behaviors, you should do three things. Stop judging yourself. Take your aspirations and break them down into tiny behaviors. Embrace mistakes as discoveries and use them to move forward.” Stanford’s Director of Behavior Design Lab BJ Fogg’s book Tiny Habits: The Small Habits That Change Everything is based on twenty years of research and Fogg’s experience coaching more than 40,000 people. The Tiny Habits website even offers a free and simple 5-day course where professor Fogg says “You will learn a lot about habits, as well as how to change your behavior.” All in this week's newsletter: **Link in Bio #transitions #NFM #NextForMe #NextForMeBook #work #change #whatsnext #transformation #job #myjob #office #company #entrepreneur #entrepreneurship #grind #photooftheday #business #biz #life #workinglate #computer #instajob #instalife #instagood #instadaily #covid #habits

“When leaders take breaks and make it known that

“When leaders take breaks and make it known that they’re protecting that time, employees feel empowered to do the same.” In the Harvard Business Review @rtulshyan wrote, Take Your Lunch Break! She tells the all too familiar story that widespread remote work has led to longer workdays and more emails and meetings for many employees. Combine that with a back-to-back meeting culture, and foregoing breaks can be hard to avoid. But taking real lunch breaks has been linked to improved job satisfaction and productivity.

“For many, retirement is now a myth, and the ability to adapt to a rapidly changing workplace is fundamental.” We wrote "Rapid Change Is Disrupting How We Approach Work and Purpose" in The Super Age blog this week. Without a doubt, cycles of change are moving ever faster. Those best able to nimbly move from event to event will weather the transitions best. <link in bio> Getting Some Attention on LinkedIn Here’s a great story of someone in business development being creative about getting the attention of a potential customer. Even better, he used our mapping exercise to do it. “… (he) leveraged the personal strategy plan taught in that video to map out his steps for reengaging with my team. Then sent me a picture of it. He even used my preferred nickname there in the middle.” #transitions #NFM #NextForMe #NextForMeBook #work #change #whatsnext #transformation #job #myjob #office #company #entrepreneur #entrepreneurship #grind #mygrind #dayjob #ilovemyjob #dailygrind #photooftheday #business #biz #life #workinglate #computer #instajob #instalife #instagood #instadaily #covid

Another week of near-constant upheaval, but we car

Another week of near-constant upheaval, but we carry on. This week’s guest author Wes Morten @producerwes writes, “In a rapidly changing world, adaptability in the face of adverse events is crucial. Mindfulness offers a proven approach to overcome life’s many unexpected challenges.” Sound familiar (except maybe the mindfulness part)? Things are coming at us from a fire hose of news events and uncertainty. Whether you turn to meditation or “growth mindset” techniques, we’re following the trend with an, ahem, open mind. #transitions #NFM #NextForMe #NextForMeBook #work #change #whatsnext #transformation #job #myjob #office #company #entrepreneur #entrepreneurship #grind #mygrind #dayjob #ilovemyjob #dailygrind #photooftheday #business #biz #life #workinglate #computer #instajob #instalife #instagood #instadaily
