You CAN Change Your Life 9 Minutes at a Time

Most of us are living in a quiet wrestling match. There are the things we have to do, and there are the things we actually want to do, and somehow the things we're excited about keep getting pushed to the back burner. We tell ourselves we'll get to them once life slows down or we finally have enough time, and that day never quite arrives.This is the 100th episode, and I'm going back to the principle that started it all and the small, doable way everything shifts when you stop waiting for the perfect amount of time. I'm also bringing back something a lot of you have been asking me for. If there's something you've been putting off or telling yourself you'll never get to, consider this your nudge to begin.Episode Highlights:Why the things you keep avoiding take far less time than you thinkThe simple pairing that takes the edge off whatever you've been resistingWhat starts to change when you prove you can keep a promise to yourself__________________Get my BEST SELLING book - It's Only a Matter of Timehttps://www.jennifersise.com/ItsonlyamatteroftimeConnect with me: Website: www.jennifersise.com Instagram: www.instagram.com/jennifersiseBe sure to rate this podcast, leave a review, share it with your friends and hit the subscribe button so you never miss an episode.Here’s to more intentional connection and less grind … 9 minutes at a time!Music by Max Sise

Being PRESENT and STAYING There

Being present is one of those things that sounds simple until you actually try to do it consistently. It's probably one of the trickiest things to get right, and most of us are working on it more than we'd like to admit.A weekend away with my husband and grown sons gave me a front-row seat to what it actually feels like to stay there, not just show up, but really stay. In this episode, I'm sharing three things that help you slow down, pull your attention back when it starts to wander, and stay in the moment long enough to feel the joy that's already waiting for you.Episode Highlights:Why slowing down doesn't mean you need more time, just a different paceHow to notice when your attention drifts and what to do about itThe one mindset shift that makes nine minutes of presence worth more than an hour of hurry__________________Get my BEST SELLING book - It's Only a Matter of Timehttps://www.jennifersise.com/ItsonlyamatteroftimeConnect with me: Website: www.jennifersise.com Instagram: www.instagram.com/jennifersiseBe sure to rate this podcast, leave a review, share it with your friends and hit the subscribe button so you never miss an episode.Here’s to more intentional connection and less grind … 9 minutes at a time!Music by Max Sise

Voting for Yourself 9 Minutes at a Time

Every incomplete thing on your list is quietly costing you more than you realize. I've been thinking a lot about James Clear's idea that every action you take is a vote for the person you want to become, and how that connects directly to the power of nine minutes.Nine minutes doesn't sound like much. But what happens when you string those nine minutes together, day after day, toward the things you've been putting off?Episode Highlights:Why incompletion blocks momentum and keeps you stuck in the pastHow the compound effect applies to tasks, not just financesOne simple practice to start voting for yourself this week__________________Get my BEST SELLING book - It's Only a Matter of Timehttps://www.jennifersise.com/ItsonlyamatteroftimeConnect with me: Website: www.jennifersise.com Instagram: www.instagram.com/jennifersiseBe sure to rate this podcast, leave a review, share it with your friends and hit the subscribe button so you never miss an episode.Here’s to more intentional connection and less grind … 9 minutes at a time!Music by Max Sise
