Systems Allow You To Let Go of The Outcome

systems and structure

Systems and structure are an essential part of getting anything done in life.

Not only are the they path to success, they allow us to show up and be better at what we do. And when we are better, our results are better and our stress is lower.

I listened to a webinar this week that said we make 35,000 decisions a day. Many of them unconsciously. And that each decision wears down our determination and commitment. Which makes sense. It’s why I’m able to say no to eating candy early in the morning, but not so much after a long day of decisions. Especially if someone filled up a bowl with peanut M&M’s and left them on the counter, just waiting to be devoured.

Or why I can be consistent with working out if I go first thing in the morning, but it’s 50% at best if I try to go in the afternoon.

What if one of the simplest and easiest keys to success was creating as many systems as you can to make things more automatic and require less thought?

Systems aren’t sexy, but the results are.

The other bonus is, they allow you to let go of the outcome and focus on the task at hand, confident that it will work. Which means you can be 100% present with everything you are doing, rather than doing it half way while wondering if you should be doing something else.

What are your systems? Are they serving you? Are there any that you can add that would reduce decisions, and move you closer to your goal?

To your success!
