Ep 165What's your ONE thing for 2022?

Do you love your business? You should. Right? Well, sometimes we just don't, it's my hope that this, the My Daily Business Coach podcast, helps you regain a little of that lost love by providing tips and tactics, tools, insights, inspiration, all the good stuff to help you actually enjoy running your business. In addition to actionable tips and tactics that you'll be able to execute immediately, you'll also hear from creative, small business owners around the world who've been able to sidestep the hustle and build a business that merges their passion with their purpose and provides a profit. I'm your host Fiona Killackey, founder of My Daily Business Coach. Let's get going.Hello and welcome to episode 165 of the My Daily Business Coach Podcast. We are officially into 2022! I hope that you are having a beautiful and happy and safe and healthy new year. And I really, really hope every single person that listens to this podcast, that 2022 is a, just less stressful and overwhelming year than the previous two years have been. So today, it is a quick tip episode, and I'm going to make this really quick because I hope that you are spending some time with loved ones. You know, if you're listening in real-time, on the 4th of January. And so I just wanna give you something to really consider honing on and then get back to the rest of your day. So today, before we get stuck into that, I just want to acknowledge the traditional owners and custodians on the beautiful, beautiful land that I get to live on and record this podcast. The wandering people of the Kulin nation and I pay my respects to their elders past, present, and emerging and acknowledge that sovereignty has never been seated. And I also pay my respects to the elders, past, present, and emerging of any other indigenous or Aboriginal communities that may be tuning in to this podcast. So, as I said, it's a quick tip episode. Let's get stuck in, shall we?So, as we are into a new year and as somebody who works with thousands of small business owners, I know that this small change in the calendar, this idea of, you know, newness can actually elicit a lot of hope in people and it can feel like it's a fresh slate. "Fresh slate, clean slate." It's a fresh new year and it's a clean slate. And so I know lots of the people that listen to this have, you know, told me about vision boards and their one word and those kinds of exercises that people do. And I absolutely love doing them. I actually have a ritual with my eldest son. He is eight, almost nine, and we sit down and we do our vision boards together. And I was doing mine for years. And then one time he said, "What is that?" And I explained it to him and he said, "I wanna do one. "And so he's been doing them with me for probably the last four years. And he loves cutting things out and kind of really thinking about what he wants in the year ahead. And he loves, even more, to come back at the end of the year and kind of tick off so many things that happen just weird, sometimes coincidences universe magic, I don't know, but other times, you know, it's things that he's really committed to such as, you know, getting better at basketball or doing more swimming or going for more bike rides or, other things. And I think as a mom, as a parent, it's really beautiful to see what is important to him, what he's prioritizing for the year ahead. So I love, love, love that stuff. But another question that I often ask clients is "What is the one thing?" Now, if you've been listening to this for a while, or you ever worked with me or come to a talk or anything like that, you'll know that I often talk about having three goals, just three, you know, not going crazy into shiny new object syndrome and having these three goals, but within them even, and not necessarily related to the goals, but just what is one thing that you want from 2022, really?That's the question for you today. To really think outside of everything else, What is just one thing? And for some people, it may seem small. It might be, I want to shop more on Instagram. For example, for other people, it might be a bit bigger. Like I want to launch a data podcast. And if that's you, and you wanna really get into this quick, understand the process, we do have a, how to start a podcast course. And you can find that mydailybusinesscoach.com/shop, but yeah, you know, starting a podcast is a bit more, not necessarily even more work than showing up on Instagram, because it really depends where you are in your life. And this is why it's so important to really hone in on what is your one thing? Like, what is it that you really, really wanna focus on? So I know in 2021, I want to focus on health.It was a really important thing for me. And I did, I saw a kinesiologist, I saw a Tarot reader. I went to my GP and I got all my checks for heart disease. And I mean, pretty much everything, anything that runs in my family. I said, can we check for that? And surprisingly, everything came up r
