In this day and age where we’re always moving from one project to another, always connected, and always accessible, it is almost too easy to find yourself exhausted, burned out, lacking energy, and not having much to give.
The concept of Sabbath (rest) has been paramount to the health of the person, family unit, business, and life, from the beginning of history.
For decades now, especially in the western world, we have been conditioned to work hard, sacrifice our family’s and our personal health, all at the altar of productivity and accomplishment.
There is great danger in this.
We are designed to accomplish supernatural things in life; however, we cannot give what we do not possess!
Special Announcement:
We are only ONE WEEK AWAY from our live event! Get off the fence, and get your seats today!
You have a message, a story, and cause that matters
You are drawn to a certain need or people group and have something of real value to offer
You have a desire to write, publish, and produce meaningful content for those you are called to serve
If any or all of these are true, you should be at the Create.Publish.Profit. workshop on June 21st!
Feature Presentation: It makes sense sometimes to just STOP!
Stop performing
Stop running non-stop
Stop doing things that don’t matter
Evaluate where you are: look at progress, position, and perspective.
Sabbath is taking time to reset and rethink the future from a place of peace and rest, as opposed to making decisions from a place of flurry and busy-ness.
SO WHY AM I SHARING ALL OF THIS WITH YOU?
This summer marks numerous transitions taking place, opportunities to consider, and a very real need for me to focus.
In looking at my calendar, I realized the summer months presented the perfect opportunity for me to take a step back, and give intentional focus to these important things in my life and in my business.
HOW WILL I ACCOMPLISH THIS?
Doing virtually NO business travel during the remainder of the summer
No new appointments
Focusing my work days on thinking and creating
Taking time to get away and unplug
Spending time with my wife, kids, and close friends
One more thing:
Starting next week, I am going to publish ONLY ONE podcast episode per week!
This will be the Monday Mastery segment, which will provide high-intensity insight to fill you up for success and influence.
The Monday Mastery videos will post to our site and to YouTube on Mondays, and the audio podcast will post to our site, iTunes, Stitcher, and iHeart Radio on Thursdays.
I am not going away, I am only taking time to get stronger, better, more effective, and more influential.
WHAT ABOUT YOU?
Are you overdue for a Sabbath?
Do you need to step back and reset?
Are you stressed out and overwhelmed?
Are there people in your life who need your time and attention now?
Are you taking care of you so you can serve and take care of others?
Closing Thoughts: You have to rest
You need to re-create
You need to refuel
You need to reboot
You need to refresh
Influencers Challenge: June 21 – One Day Workshop
In this workshop, we will train you on my proven process of formulating big ideas and difference-making messages into published books.
We will also do one or two sessions on creating digital (and physical) products such as audios, videos, and online courses.
The over-arching idea is to help you leverage your message, publish your first book, establish their authority, and get your message in front of more people.
Next Steps: 1. Subscribe to our weekly email update on brianholmes.com
2. Continue this conversation on Facebook! Are you taking care of YOU so you can take care of OTHERS?
Announcements: 1. Strategic Influencers Mastermind We have a few openings in our next-level mastermind group for Strategic Influencers just like YOU. The purpose of this group is to connect emerging leaders for sharing ideas, purposeful collaboration, relational and business accountability, and ultimately, each member realizing “NEXT-LEVEL PERFORMANCE!”
This is not a marketing effort to get people into a course. In fact, this is not a course and it is not coaching. I’m looking to grow my businesses in a co-operative environment and also share my knowledge and experience with those who are ready to take their life and their leadership to the next level.
