  Live Coaching & A Free Book If You Want It …

  Procrastination and disorganization suck big time. If you’re trying to build your business – or even joust trying to hit some personal goals – these two progress killers can make you crawl under the covers and wish that life would magically get better for you.  But it won’t, not unless you get off your ass and make it happen.  (Gee, can you tell I’ve been there?  I have been, but I didn’t stay there, dammit.)
  This Tuesday at 12pm Eastern I’ll be giving a live coaching teleseminar / webcast about how to immediately start getting organized and begin to crush procrastination so you can start getting things done.  No magic formulas, no gimmicks, and no “sounds good for you but it couldn’t work for me” advice.  What you’ll hear is about an hour of good stuff that will help you start turning the tide against the two big things that hose Read the Rest…

  Work-Life Balance 101: The Failproof Way To Make a Breakthrough

  Work-life balance (or even life balance in general) is not an easy task to master.  If it were, the life coach industry wouldn’t be flourishing the way it is now – a quick Google search on “life balance” will give you no less than 25 million results.  Clearly, we’re all feeling the strain – and it’s more than likely we’ve all felt the frustration of trying to “get our lives balanced” again and again, only to have it fail to work out as we’d hoped.
  That royally sucks. And frankly, it’s unacceptable.  We deserve better than to live reactive lives, hoping things will get better but feeling in our gut like they never will.  So let’s start putting an end to the cycle.
  How To Overcome A Lack Of Balance (Or Just About Anything Else)
  The truth is, we only get better at things we spend a bunch of time on. That’s really Read the Rest…

  Rock Your Weekend: 60 Minutes That Really Matter

  Life goes by fast.  And based on the huge response to the recent articles about doing what matters (and doing it before it’s too late), it’s clear that the pace of life can easily run you ragged.  And when I announced my weekend challenge on Twitter a few weeks ago, I received no shortage of responses.
  So now I’m bringing the challenge to all my readers here.
  How To Rock Your Weekend In Just 60 Minutes
  You have 48 beautiful hours awaiting you (72 if you’re taking a Memorial Day weekend in the States), and here’s what I’m challenging you to do:

  Spend 30 minutes each day of your weekend doing something you’ve been putting off (but that would really add value to your life and make you happier).

  That’s it.  But when I say “something you’re putting off,” I’m not talking chores, or around-the-house projects, or things that you feel that you have Read the Rest…

  How To Start Getting Balanced When You’re Too Damned Busy

  “Give a little bit / Give a little bit of your time to me” – Supertramp, Give a Little Bit

  It’s been a gritty, no-hold-barred set of posts on Rock Your Day lately.  I’ve asked you whether you’ll regret where your goals take you, and made you come to terms with the reality that you won’t get a second chance to make up for lost time.  The time to balance your life is now, not some magical time later that you’ve been telling yourself is just around the corner for months/years/ohmygodhasitbeenthatlong.
  But the challenge most of us face is that we feel like we’re already too damned busy to get balanced.  What are we supposed to do?  Don’t worry – I’ll give you the goods after the opening act.

  Getting Balanced Happens One Step At A Time
  The trick to getting balanced is to take the pressure off.  We tend to resist Read the Rest…

  Cut Clutter From Your Email This Week

  Simple tip for this Monday:

  You’ve got crap in your Inbox on a regular basis that you will never, ever read.  Ever.
  It’s piling up.
  It must pile up no more.

  Get honest with yourself – if you’re receiving information that you’re either not reading or not acting upon, it is essentially worthless.  Actually, it’s a liability because it is cluttering your inbox and causing you stress.

  If you haven’t opened a newsletter you’re subscribed to for the last few issues, unsubscribe.
  If you don’t act on the good advice contained in a news letter, unsubscribe.
  If you receive newsletters you don’t want to unsubscribe from because you really think you’ll read it in the future, set up a rule/filter that will archive it in a “to read” folder so that it never clutters your inbox again.

  Your time is too valuable to waste it managing information that shouldn’t have to be managed manually.
  Get the crap out of Read the Rest…

  Quick Check: What’s Stealing Your Focus?

  We all have a tendency to search out the answer to that magical question:  “What do I have to do to get more of ______?  We like to think that there’s a miracle answer around the corner, that if we just do more of X, we’ll have more of Y.  And that’s actually true, to a point.  You do more exercise, you lose more weight.  You increase your income, you increase your cashflow.  Doing more of X is an easy way to get more of the Y that you want.
  But there’s a dark side to that, the one that’s not as seductive, because it requires facing up to a few ugly truths.
  You Don’t Keep Your Boat Above Water By Bailing Faster
  If you have holes in your boat, what’s the solution?  It ain’t bailing faster.  It’s plugging the freakin’ holes.
  “Holes” are the things that cost you, that drag you down, that Read the Rest…

  About Dave Navarro

  Who Is Dave Navarro?
  There’s a famous guitarist named Dave Navarro.  I’m not him.
  I’m a different kind of rockstar, the kind who sweats behind the scenes rather than on stage, kicking successful people’s asses so that they become even more successful.  I’m a personal productivity coach who gets deep into the minds of people who have everything going for them but are hitting some speedbumps and roadblocks – and I pull no punches until they break past the limiting beliefs that are holding them back.
  I help entrepreneurs get “unstuck.”  I push people past what they think they are capable of.  I find solutions to their problems that they had never even considered, and I get them to think bigger, work smarter and believe in themselves more.  I take their psychological baggage and help make sure it gets lost at the airport.  I kick their asses, and then I teach them to Read the Rest…

  Start Monday Right: Decide To Front Load Your Day

  A typical Monday for most people involves slooooooooowly getting into the swing of things for the week. Most people hate Mondays, and their response to it is to spend far too much time “warming up” to their workload.
  Want to bust that feeling today and feel like you’re ahead of the game? Then front load your schedule for the day and feel like a champion (and stress less!) by getting ahead of the game.
  Front Loading: Your Productivity Bazooka
  Front loading is simply the act of slamming out results in the early part of the schedule, rather than the latter. In other words, move your “crunch time” to the very start. By forcing yourself to think in crunch mode right off the bat, you’ll have a much easier time of avoiding distractions, staying focused, and delivering great results.
