Personal Productivity: Trusting Yourself & Your New System

Welcome back!

I have seen it happen more than once: you’ve been in such an unorganized state of chaos that once you start to get organized, you have a hard time trusting yourself again.

Do you find this to be true?

When you’ve come from a state of total disorganization, you’ve learned not to trust yourself. You haven’t had a system that has ever worked for you, because you’ve still forgotten things or felt that you haven’t lived up to your expectations of yourself. When you don’t trust yourself, you have a very hard time being able to trust others to be able to Get Things Done for you and be productive for you. Disorganization can truly have rippling effects all throughout your life, both personal and business. It really is amazing how far the effects can be seen.

09 nail-biter Once you start to turn your life around, either by yourself or with someone’s assistance,  it is amazingly transformative how much of a far-reaching effect there is on your entire life. It can be very hard to get organized, especially on your own. It usually takes a catalyst like a book you’ve read or speaking to friends. For others it takes one on one training and coaching in order to be able to take the baby steps with confidence. Once you’ve been in a state of distrust for so long, it can be very hard to step out on your own because you have a hard time trusting yourself to be able to accomplish tasks and get organized.

Once you are on your path to recovering from being disorganized, I have seen people forget to trust themselves to be able to Get Things Done and get a great deal of productivity out of their lives.it can be a difficult change to get accustomed to once you’ve not trusted yourself for such a long period of time. It is completely normal to forget to trust yourself on the beginning of your organization and productivity journey, but once you get fully into the swing of things, you will see that your ability to trust yourself will slowly be restored. This is not a process that will occur overnight: try to remember how long you’ve been unorganized and then realize that it will take so time to get your trust of yourself and your systems into your routine.

It can be done, and the rewards are more fulfilling than can be described. Once you’ve been on your path, how long has it taken you to trust yourself and your system?
