- I am done achieving things only

to not be fulfilled with them in the end anyways.

For months, I was saying, "I'm on the verge of burnout,"

but the truth was, I was already burnt out.

I was emotionally drained, mentally exhausted,

and tired all the time.

My name is Janelle Fraser, the expert

to follow to become genuinely happy,

wildly successful, and a naked leader.

All I knew was that my passion

for life and business just disappeared.

That desire and that motivation

that was so natural to me just wasn't there.

I used to be decisive and knew what I wanted

and was excited to go after it, and all of a sudden,

I didn't want to go after anything.

In fact, not only did I not want to go after things,

but I wanted to take every single thing

that I have worked for in my life,

everything that I've brought into my life,

and I wanted to throw it all away.

To leave relationships, to move away,

to let go of my business.

It was this state of, "I need to escape

"and get out of here or I am going to combust."

So the first step for me was admitting what was going on.

Admitting that I was mentally exhausted

and emotionally drained, and I wasn't

on the verge of burnout, I was burnt out.

I would be searching everywhere for the puzzle pieces,

you know, what is the thing that's gonna

make a difference, what's gonna make me happy,

what's gonna make me feel better?

You know, when I was chatting with my fiance

or friends or family, of course, the main question is,

well, what do you want?

You know, I didn't want anything.

I just wanted out.

What I decided to do was commit

to not playing that game anymore,

and that was for me, the second step

that was really essential.

I committed to not playing the game

of overwhelmed and burnt out which means anything

and everything that made me feel overwhelmed

or exhausted or tired, literally in the moment,

I just wouldn't do it.

Which meant a significant drop in business activity,

which meant a significant change in my everyday life.

I had stories that I was lazy and weak

running through my mind, but at the same time,

I was proud of myself for giving myself this space.

I was trusting and, you know, following

that gut instinct in my heart that was telling me

that I should probably slow down and just back off,

but at the same time, that loud voice in my mind

that says, "You're a leader, you have this business.

"People have expectations of you.

"Your clients are expecting your business

"to grow, so you need to grow it.

"You need to keep pushing."

And so, there was this battle in my mind,

but the second step for me was so loud and clear,

is that I'm just done playing that game.

I am done achieving things only

to not be fulfilled with them in the end anyways.

So what, I want million dollar business?

So what, I want this big impact,

what's really gonna fulfill me?

I can have both, it doesn't have to be either/or.

But I had to pull back for a while,

and stop doing things that were not fulfilling,

that flared up that overwhelm 'cause I needed

to start to retrain my body that I wasn't just gonna

push through her anymore and ignore the signs and symbols,

that I was gonna start to trust and listen to her.

And I'm telling you, that process was not easy.

When have you stopped?

When have you stopped?

Because my relaxation time was really just

doing more things and distraction time.

Step three is really important, to actually slow down.

And not do anything.

Sometimes I think there is a phase

where maybe you need to binge on Netflix

and you need to, you know, distract yourself for a while,

but when you're looking to find the answers,

when you're looking for the action steps

and how to move forward from this place,

it's not found in distraction.

It's found in tuning in so you can turn on your life.

And I know for me, the big ah-ha moment

was, "Yeah, I'm pulling back,

"and I'm not playing that game anymore,

"but I'm also distracting myself.

"I'm numbing, I'm running away

"from my own inner wisdom."

I want to warn you.

If you have a business, if you have a job,

if you have a family, if you have

significant responsibilities, and pressures,

and demands, you might be thinking that,

"This is all great, Janelle, I would love to find quiet time

"and commit to not playing that game,

"but I've got things to do."

And the truth is, we all have things to do

and your health, your mental capacity,

your life, your goals, and your dreams,

are going to be destroyed quite literally

if this is the path that you continue to commit to.

So whatever you have in your life

is what you're committed to.

So, if you want more freedom, more ease,

more peace, more calmness in your life,

then you need to commit to it,

which means your behaviors, and your actions,

and where you spend your time, need to shift.

And so, I know we all have the list of to-dos,

but the to-do list doesn't go away.

It just doesn't.

And so, the only way to get out of this is to choose.

Admit that it's an issue, commit that

you're no longer playing that game,

and get silent and listen for the answers.

The answers won't come if you are being distracted.

Learnt that one.

Just recently.

So if you liked this, I would love for you

to give me a thumbs up and please share this wisdom

along with your friends, share this video out,

Make it a great day.

COMPLIMENTING IS AWESOME! | Mais Magenta by Dani Cruz - Duration: 7:44.

Hi everyone, I'm Dani Cruz this is Mais Magenta and today we're going to talk about compliment!

I'm not talking about the guys who stalk the girls on the street thinking it's a compliment

That's not what we're going to talk about today.

I'm talking about sincere and respectful compliment.

(Thanks!

You handsome!

Ah, thank you) But before we start talking about it

do not forget to follow me on social networks, subscribe to the channel if you have not subscribed yet

And turn on the notifications to, if Mr YouTube allows, be notified when

I post a new video.

I've always had trouble to do as much as to get compliments, it's always been

too hard for me.

When we have self-esteem issues, it is very difficult for you to hear a compliment

and accept that

To understand that the person is not messing with you, or that she is not with some

kind of crooked intentions

Or sometimes you think that this person can only be crazy to think that about you!

Because I did not know how to be praised, I thought it was kind of embarrassing,

I used think everyone felt like me.

OrI used to think the person would think I was crazy or ridiculous, and then I didnt say anything.

And spoke nothing.

As I grew up in my professional career, I began to work with other people

have people working on my team, being the boss.

And I began to realize how happy they were to be praised, and how

their work, and my relationship with those people, got better, simply

For saying the cool things I thought they were doing.

I was not lying to anyone, they were really doing nice things.

And I was very proud of them and I enjoyed talking to people.

anyway, it worked very well!

And then I realized that when I was complimented I also did my job a lot better.

then I started thinking "what if we take it to other areas of our lives,

outside the professional?

How will it be if I start complimenting people?

But this idea was still a little strange.

But at work, complimenting is recognition

and ends up helping people like what they do

There came feminism and with it a lot of wonderful women in my life, and I started

To receive more compliments, and no one cared if I thought otherwise

People kept complimenting me.

And that's when I began to deconstruct the idea that women are rivals, and that they

are my enemies and want to put me down.

It was very important to me because I was always the one who had more guy friends

just for fear of having girl friends, and then as I got to know

more feminist women I ended up turning quite the opposite, today I have

only female friends, basically.

I started to know a lot of incredible women and I wanted to tell them "I think it's incredible

what you did, it's really cool" then I started saying those things and they also talked

about my stuff, they supported me, many girls who barely know me being super supportive here

In my channel, in the blog, in my poetry, in anything I do, I get lots of messages from women

Who say "What you do is good, you have potential"

The support I received from other women, their compliments, helped me a lot in building

my self-esteem. I started complimenting these women back

And feel that nice place in my heart as I get more and more of a fan of those women that are not

famous but make a difference in the day to day of several people.

So when I traveled to New York the first time, there's a few vlogs from that trip here,

It was a very funny thing because there, people mostly complimented me

on the street.

People there compliment a lot, it's cultural, people like your purse,

Your socks, your hair, your glasses, they will come and say that.

And it was not that the person was flirting with me ... sometimes it could be

but most of the times it was not.

I thought it was very cool and it was something that I learned

and it was around the same time that I was learning about feminism, it was very cool to have this contact with people who

do not think it's a problem they say they like things in you.

Anyway, when I was there and I was wearing strange clothes, that here in Brazil I

Would be looked sideways, I was complimented and there it gave me more strength to be who I am

And wear the clothes I want, weird or not.

Because I started to understand that maybe some places I would not be accepted

But somewhere in the world someone will find that very cool.

That's enough for me.

Even if nowhere in the world anybody finds it cool, screw it , because I think

It's cool, so I'm going to use it!

Receiving positive feedback on my style that has always been a weird kid

Made me better accept who I am.

So I wonder how much we can change the lives of others if we talk

about the good things we think about them, know?

Because I know when Igot this kind of encouragement from other people who sometimes did not even know me

It was very important to me.

Of course we have to have the notion of respect, the notion of personal space from the other...

You can't come to someone like "hi, you are very beautiful" because you have to

Understand the boundary between compliment and harassment.

One thing I think is really cool and what I'm trying to do now is to compliment

women not from the outside, but from the inside.

Obviously if I have friends that I think they are beautiful I will say it

but also remember each time to compliment also their strength, intelligence,

and their work!

We end up being very reduced, especially for women, I think we have to praise

People, but women are much reduced to what we are

on the outside

Getting a job because you got the looks, and sometimes the person hired that girl

vecause she's hot but does not know that she's hot AND she's a professional because

did not even bother to check it out, you know?

We are really objectified.

So you compliment the other qualities of that woman for her to see that she is not

Just a cute little body, it's a lot of mind in the head (no one i going to be old enough

To understand this joke, hahahah just me) this is very important.

Whenever you praise the beauty of a woman remember to compliment other stuff as well

All the cool things that she sure has.

And then, people, we compliment people and will create a cycle of love and positive energies

This cycle is endless, seriously, and I believe these are small attitudes

That can change a lot as we live with each other in society

To start this chain I want you to tell me here in the comments who

is a woman in your life that you admire a lot!

It can be your mother, a friend, your boss, or even a person who

You do not even know well, but you know when you have that friendship crush?

You look and say, "this woman is amazing"

I want to know in the comments,okay?

(It's you, Dandinha, it's you!

you are this person, you are, my love!)

Weel everyone, That's it for today do not forget to follow me there on social networks and

See you next time.

Goodbye!

The ICO Phenomenon Is On Another Level | Jed McCaleb Interview - Duration: 2:45.

Check it with this whole ICO phenomenon that's just a whole other

level that's you know just starting I mean I've talked to, you know, probably 30

different people that are all doing ICOs and that's just in my little circle I'm

sure there's been a few thousand by the end of the year.

Obviously there's like a

ton of hype in this space and there's a lot of like bubbly stuff and there's a lot

of vapor and I think that's one of the thing that makes it hard to approach is

like as a someone who's not technical it's very hard to analyze this stuff and

realize what's what's actually real and what's not. Particularl with this whole

ICO phenomenon, that's just a whole other level that's, you know, just

starting I mean I've talked to, you know, probably 30 different people that are

all doing ICOs and that's just in my little circle I'm sure there's gonna be

a few thousand by the end of the year so it's just gonna make it even harder to

assess but there is there is I think that's just part of the process right

there one of the one of the beauties of this is it is enabling access to all these... it's

kind of like in the early days internet anybody can throw up a web page now anybody

can make a token this kind of thing right? So it's gonna lead to a lot of

crappy websites but it's also going to lead to a lot of like good things in the

end right, it's just part of the process for it so

Do you think the ICOs

are being used more as a funding mechanism or do the people issuing the

ICOs do they actually think that their token is going to become a currency?

So yeah I mean it's it's a spectrum of things yeah I mean I think the

interesting thing for me about the ICO phenomenon is it basically it's kind of

doing two things it's like it's providing it's giving these people that

didn't otherwise have access to investment access now and it's

allowing companies that you know because if you're a company outside of this look

outside of Silicon Valley it's actually kind of hard to raise money and like

this is giving them access to sources of funds and then if

you're not like an investor here then you don't have access to

all this deal flow like you could never get into some of these deals and this is

allowing like anybody with just like 100 bucks to get involved so it's

it's kind of again it's just like leveling the playing field for all this

stuff which is I think really powerful and then the other thing is it's doing

is it's it's creating where you can actually use the token in your business

model so for instance if you're like a social network you can instead

all your members of the social network things like that so so a lot of so it's

it's not only providing like new funding mechanism which i think is pretty

interesting on its own right but it's allowing all these new kind of business

models to be tried out which I will inevitably lead to something cool.

To the bill into the heart of this manner

This is about pensions

pensions and pensions, let's just look back in recent history back in 2001

Chicago public schools their pension fund was almost fully funded

Just a short time later today. That is not the case

The people of Illinois have already paid their fair share into those pensions

This is the definition of not fair

This is a Chicago pension bailout. I have said it. This is a Chicago pension bailout and

Since the people of Illinois have already paid into this they've already paid their fair share. This is also double taxation

Ladies and gentlemen I urge a no vote on this override

The Marketing Measurement Series - What Even Is A KPI? - 1 Minute Moment #86 - Duration: 1:50.

This week what is a KPI? I looked on the Internet this is what the Internet said:

A KPI is a key performance indicator and a key performance indicator is a

measurable value that demonstrates how effectively a company is achieving key

business objectives...

One minute to explain exactly what KPIs are and why you should use them, starting

...now. What are KPIs? KPIs are metrics or statistics that you can measure on a

regular basis to help you know are you getting it right with your marketing, are

you hitting those business goals. For example the number of sales is a KPI, the

revenue that you make from those sales is a KPI, even something like how

many email subscribers you have is a KPI. Why should we measure them KPIs? Keep

you motivated. If you know that you're doing well by measuring those statistics

on a regular basis you'll stay motivated, you want to keep going and if you're not

being successful, well it means that you won't be wasting time on the things that

don't work and you can spend more time on the things that are. So how shall I

set those KPIs? You need to know what your goals are, you need to set those

decide where you want to go with your business and that will inform your KPIs.

Not all KPIs are sales driven you can have revenue and sales targets but you

should also be looking further down the customer journey

You might remember I did a post on this recently? Yep you'll find it here. Loads

more on KPIs on the blog follow the link
