Organization - A Catalyst for Focus?

In this solo episode, Kristen explores the first of the 6-Excellence Potential Habits that are the foundation to the ONE Theory and the ONE Book... ORGANIZATION.

There are a lot of ideas out there around high performance habits. We LOVE habits and believe they are a very effective tool for moving the needle in our lives (and there's plenty of science to back that up), but when Kristen was working on developing the ONE Theory, it became clear that a big missing piece of the traditional "success" formulas is ENERGY. The Overwhelm is a thief of our joy and our energy and so we have created a system through the ONE Book that re-introduces the importance of energy into the equation and although the topic of organization may not be splashy or sexy... once we realize how much it helps when applied effectively... it is pretty damn attractive.

We have come a long way in our thinking about keeping the physical 'things' in our lives organized (hello fridge and closet organization systems) but what about our thoughts, ideas, plans, and feelings? The ONE Book was created to fill in this gap! Kristen dives into the fundamental principles of "Systems Theory" and how it fits with the ONE Theory, she explores why getting organized feels so good (yes... more feelings)... which really does matter when we're trying to get the root challenges we have with getting and staying organized.

Lastly, Kristen leaves us with a concept to ponder... what would it look and feel like if we released our attachment to "hustle culture" and began thinking about our effectiveness vs. our productivity. Should we be valuing ourselves and others based on how 'productive' we are... or instead... should we be shooting for effectiveness. Should we be looking at the impact we're making instead of how many to-do items we cross off the list?
