Simple, boring, daily routines are how you get big results


Reader,

Do you take the boring, everyday, mundane routines for granted?

I did and never thought I'd miss my daily routines so much after a 2-week family vacation!

Anticipating the trip was way more fun than when we were actually on the trip - never thought I'd say this.

After 2 weeks of vacation time, I couldn't wait to get back to my boring, everyday routines!

Many people think the success they want is found in the latest trend, strategy or hack.

Or adding more to their plates.

When actually, it's much simpler than that - it's about eliminating all non-essentials until you get plain, old, boring, routines.

Showing up consistently over time for your key priorities is the key to getting the big results you want.

My priorities for 2025 are:

  • Health
  • Wealth
  • Relationships
  • Business

The routines I have around these priorities are 90% the same as before.

I've found it's repeating and iterating on the small, consistent actions that get you real results in the end.

Plus, it makes it so much easier when you don't have to reinvent the wheel, add more to-do's or overcomplicate it.

If you miss a day, just get back to it the next day.

Simple.

Here's how to set up your plain, old, boring routines that get results:

  1. Identify your top 3-5 priorities - remember, not everything is a priority.
  2. Set up routines that ensure you make daily progress on these priorities.
  3. Track and evaluate that you're actually following through with your routines.
  4. Iterate and adjust accordingly to make sure your routines are getting results and work in real life.
  5. Deal with any resistance (e.g. procrastination, perfectionism, etc.) around following through with your routines.

The Weekly Newsletter CAREER COACH FOR WORKING MOMS I've always been the person who makes career decisions that look crazy from the outside. Pay cut for a smaller role? ✅ Leaving stable jobs for unknown opportunities? ✅ Following gut instincts over spreadsheet logic? ✅ People thought I was either brave or reckless.

Reader, It's begun. Retrenchment talks. Even though the company I work at has announced 'restructuring' after the acquisition, up to this point, this was only happening at the global and regional level, and the top folks in our country. Last week, the first trickle has landed in country. As someone in HR, conducting these conversations is the part of my job I hate most. Watching people cry. Seeing the shock, anger, and helplessness wash over their faces. Knowing that in an instant, their...

Reader, I have a confession. A decade ago, I got into a 6-figure business debt. I used to believe having more money solves all problems. Whenever there was something I didn't know how to or didn't want to deal with, I'd throw more money on it. When I would realized what I had done, I'd panic and stress. Hitting the 6-figure mark in debt was my wake-up call. The problem wasn't that I needed to become a financial expert. The problem was that I was stuck in survival mode, making decisions from...
