Keay Takeaways: Reclaim Your Energy, Passion, and Time

  • Ann Holm is a Professional Certified Coach specializing in executive, leadership, and personal development.
  • Ann is the Co-author of the book, Educator Bandwidth: How to Reclaim Your Energy, Passion, and Time – don’t worry the lessons also apply to logistics and supply chain folks.
  • In the podcast interview, Ann shared 3 strategies that people can use to be more productive, happier, and healthier, in other words reclaiming your energy, passion, and time.
  • Strategy 1 – Be present! Mobile technology and remote work have enabled us to take our job anywhere. The problem is that we are often disengaged from the present while we worry about our latest work email or text. Stop trying to be in two places at once – it makes you way less productive. Focus on one task at a time. Stop multi-tasking, which is difficult on the brain and makes us less effective and efficient.
  • Strategy 2 – Use cognitive steps to encourage good behavior and discourage bad behavior. Example 1: Make it easier to go to the gym by packing your gym bag and putting it by the door – increasing the chances you hit the gym. Example 2: To discourage yourself from playing with your phone while you are working, put the phone in the other room.
  • Strategy 3 – Get organizational support that encourages and enables optimum productivity along with work life balance.
  • Joe Lynch is one of Ann’s coaching clients and he wrote the review below:
  • “When I first engaged with Ann a decade ago, I was going through a really tough time, both professionally and personally. I felt like I had lost my way and developed some bad habits. I wanted more, but I didn’t know how to get it. Working with Ann helped me recognize both my strengths and weaknesses. More importantly, we together developed a path to my goals that enabled me to leverage my strengths while avoiding the pitfalls that had tripped me up so many times in the past. Ann helped me to see my potential to influence others and encouraged me to start a blog that eventually became my business. Today, The Logistics of Logistics podcast is one of the leading business news podcasts and I would have never started it had I not met Ann – she even came up with the name!” — Joe Lynch, Podcast Host, The Logistics of Logistics
