I don't know about you, but I tend to repeat the same cycles in life over and over again, until a day comes where the pain of burn out is too much to bare any longer. The cycle that I'm breaking out of right now is, "The more I do, the more returns I'll receive." 

I tend to over stack my plate by thinking that I have to do more and more, and by doing this I will seem successful, get more love, receive more money, and execute on more results. This is a limiting belief and it has been working against me for years. I get burnt out, and I push away the ones in my life that are the most important to me. When I do make time for the things I enjoy, and the people that I love, I'm not actually present because I'm constantly thinking about all the things that I "need" to do. All the things that I put on my plate, and no one else put them there. I also don't have much energy to be engaged, as my cup is empty. I had put all my energy into all the other tasks that I was doing throughout the day and week, and left nothing in my cup for myself, or anyone else.  

So this year's mantra for myself is, "Do Less, Receive More." I'm doing less busy work, and more things that fill up my cup. If I say yes to everything that shows up, then I am actually saying no to things that are more important to me. So now I am, saying yes to the things that are important to me, and saying no to everything else. In this I have already seen 10x return in my energy, happiness, love, and results. By the end of next week, I will have traveled 4 separate times to 4 different states, have completed a Men's Workshop, and written a huge majority of a book since the start of this year. 

What can you do less of, so that you can receive more results in the areas that truly matter to you?
