Life is full. You wear more hats than most people will purchase in a lifetime but most days you don’t feel the weight because you are simply in go mode. You’re moving, constantly. Between projects, task, responsibilities at work, home and ones not assigned to you that you simply jumped in and completed because you could. That’s what you do. You fix things. Some of those things are people and sometimes they are fires that you craft a way to put out.
Is this your life? Is this the balance that everyone keeps hemming and hawing about? Are your days are meant to be spent between other people’s problems, firefighting and fixing? What about your dreams? How much longer do you have to defer them because you don’t have time to gather all the ingredients you need to make it rise? How are you ever going to have enough energy to get over to it? You’re not new to this, you know the space between I can and I will is a windy, twisty and sometimes dirty road. The terrain isn’t pretty and you need a well-equipped vehicle to get you through it. You also know that you can’t keep moving at this pace, working so hard with i nequitable results. Meanwhile, everywhere you turn there are people, places and things tugging at you and all of your resources.
So where do you start?

Second things Second. Now that you feel a bit bolder, you need to Hustle Smarter.
There are a ton of things we could go over to point out how and why all your brilliance is blocking your ability to hustle a bit smarter. But since your attention span isn’t built for that in the middle of running at high performance speed inside your life or business, we’ll skip right over to the best part. You have made the common mistake of connecting with posers who pretend they want to partner with you on your journey. We’ve all been there, done that and bought a t-shirt and a cap with the mistake written across in huge red letters. Now it’s time to decipher with a quick reminder of who you are and where they will stand in your life, if at all.
Here’s how to bring in Non -Posturing Partners in the fold and be clear with them on the position!
Keep in mind that the first two positions will often overlap in the initial stages of your relationship, but there will be clear distinguishable markers that remind you of their key position!
Anyone who doesn’t hold one of these 3 key positions in your life or business, yet insist they have your best interest and want to partner with you is simply posing. They want to get close enough to zap your energy, ideas or resources and trust me when I tell you they have no intention of refueling your tank when they’re done.
