According to the 2023 Gallup Global Workplace Report, 67% of employees in Australia and NZ reported 'quiet quitting.'

Quiet quitting is a phenomenon that describes employees disengaging from their work and organisation’s goals without expressing their dissatisfaction. As businesses globally recover from COVID and navigate rising operating costs, quiet quitting is increasingly prevalent, significantly impacting overall business performance.

Employees are facing heightened pressure to perform with fewer resources, leading to longer working hours with no relief in sight.

Anecdotally, people in general are reporting that 2023 has been a particularly tough year. They’re saying that it’s gone by far too fast, and they don’t know what they’ve achieved this year, although they seemed to be working harder and longer hours. The global state of affairs compounds these challenges.

As a business owner or team member, it's crucial to reflect on your feelings.

Building success requires hard work, determination, and a strategic mindset allowing you to think fast and act even faster. Despite this, even the most talented and driven individuals can fall victim to self-sabotage, something that often occurs subconsciously, manifesting itself in various behavioural patterns.

These patterns limit our productivity, may damage our reputation, and stop us from achieving the lofty goals that we set for ourselves. The good news is that we can explore and address our behaviour and then develop methods to overcome our upper limiting beliefs.

Recognising Limiting Beliefs

It’s evident that some people are simply able to achieve amazing results with very little friction. They find it easy to stick to their goals and go above and beyond in achieving them. However, many people say to me that they feel stuck in a position where they are unable to take the next step forward.

This could be occurring at any phase of any goal in our life. It could be...

In our journey to achieve our goals and dreams, we often find ourselves facing the ultimate enemy of time: procrastination. It's that all-too-familiar feeling of putting off important tasks and allowing fear to hold us back from reaching our true potential.

While it's challenging to provide an exact figure, the costs of procrastination on individuals, teams and organisations can be substantial as it affects productivity and employee morale. On the bright side, each and every one of us has the ability to overcome procrastination and unlock the door to efficiency and success.

Procrastination is the act of delaying or postponing tasks that need to be accomplished or decisions that need to be made. It is a common phenomenon that affects individuals from all walks of life, irrespective of their aspirations or talents. It is crucial to recognise that procrastination is not a mere lack of motivation or laziness, but rather a complex interplay of psychological factors.

At the core of...

Success is something that we all strive for, and often the journey is more rewarding than the results. For many, success is something that most people aspire to achieve in their lives, but fear is the phenomenon that holds them back.

Fear of success can manifest in various ways. Some people may experience anxiety, worry, or stress when they think about achieving their goals. Others may procrastinate or sabotage their own success. Often, this results in the exact same result for anyone that doesn’t learn to manage their fear: the dreams are given up on, and that’s that. You know most people don’t fail because they tried something, and it did not work. Most people fail because they stop before they even start. We don’t allow ourselves enough time to success.

If fear is something that has stopped you or is stopping you from reaching your dreams, it’s not a sign of weakness. Fear is a universal force that exists to keep us safe from harm, helping us to...
