3 Knots to Untie

In our last episode (www.encouraging101.podOmatic.com) we talked to Ty Howard (www.tyhoward.com) about ‘Knots’ in college student lives that they need to overcome to become good decision leaders.

1. Poor Time Management

Time management is essential for college students. The decision has already been made of what type of time management you are going to have. It will either be good or bad. The good news is that you can make a change if you don’t like the results. You can get a free copy of my Time Management For College Students E-book by signing up for my FREE newsletter

2. Procrastination

One of my mentors, Anthony Robbins (www.tonyrobbins.com) is the best that I have found that explains procrastination in his book ‘Awaken the Giant Within’ explains it this way. We are creatures of pleasure over pain. Rather than experience something emotionally (or even physically) painful, we will procrastinate dealing with it. At least until the pain of not getting it done becomes more painful than actually doing it.

3. Toxic Distractions

These can include relationships or addictions that are not good for us. They take our direction off of the end result that we have in mind. Relationships can be dangerous if we do not have set goals and boundaries. How often have you spent daydreaming about the person of your dreams. That is bad enough, but what makes it toxic is if they are always trying to manipulate you away from your goals for achieving your future.

Share some you your KNOTS with us that you are trying to UNTIE!
