Don’t Let September Drown You!
I want to help you avoid ending up underwater and overwhelmed, especially if you’re seeing these warning signs:
- Your calendar no longer belongs to you → every day gets swallowed by urgent tasks and interruptions
- Unexpected events dictate your rhythm → no space left for your real priorities
- Strategic decisions are made in a rush
- You have no mental bandwidth left for long-term thinking
- Projects that matter most keep getting pushed to “later”… again and again
⚠️ The danger?
By the time you realize you’re drowning, it’s often too late to put out the fire without casualties.
That’s when:
- Opportunities slip right past you
- Mental exhaustion sets in
- You lose sight of your vision
Here’s how to avoid it…
⏳ Reclaim Your Stolen Time and Energy
You think you lack time. But in reality, it’s being stolen from you.
Not intentionally. Not maliciously. But every day, part of your energy, focus, and attention… vanishes without you noticing.
And this isn’t about lacking willpower or discipline.
👉 It’s about a system that doesn’t respect you.
A default operating mode where you survive… instead of building.
⛓️ This system is called “reactive mode”.
You open your eyes, and your brain is already plugged into the outside world: notifications, messages, obligations, deadlines.
You spend the day responding, managing, doing what’s expected of you.
But when do you actually choose what’s truly important to you?
You move forward… but never in the right direction. You work… without ever feeling like you’re accomplishing what really matters. And you end the week exhausted, not understanding why.
🧠 What I observe in 90% of the multi-passionate professionals I work with:
(Yes, this might hit close to home.)
- 16 hours per week lost managing micro-urgencies, interruptions, and priorities that aren’t yours
- 60% of mental load tied to what you’re trying to remember, decide, or do… without proper structure
- More time spent holding on than moving forward peacefully
And this isn’t about “getting better organized.”
It’s about systems. And self-knowledge.
The main energy drains you experience (often unconsciously):
- Reactive mode: you react to everything, without filters
- Constant solicitations: your attention is fragmented
- Lack of boundaries: you say yes, even when you want to say no
- Structural overload: your system is either too complex or non-existent
- Blurry vision: you’re moving without a clear direction
- No clear leverage: you’re working… but not where it really counts
- Misaligned rhythm: you’re working against your natural flow
🧭 The shift you need to make?
You don’t need “more time.”
You need to stop losing it.
And for that, it’s not enough to “better manage your calendar.”
You need to rebuild your ecosystem:
- A system that filters
- That absorbs the unexpected
- That reconnects you to your real leverage points
- That adapts to your cognitive rhythm, not the other way around
Ready to reclaim control of your time and energy? Let’s build a system that works with you, not against you.
