10 . WHAT WAS THE BEST PIECE OF ADVICE YOU HAVE EVER BEEN GIVEN ? THE BEST PIECE OF ADVICE I ' VE RECEIVED ENCOMPASSES THREE KEY PRINCIPLES : 1 . LEAVE AN INDELIBLE MARK THROUGH YOUR WORK : STRIVE TO OPERATE IN A MANNER THAT LEAVES A LASTING IMPACT , SUCH THAT YOUR ABSENCE IS KEENLY FELT BY THOSE AROUND YOU . THIS ETHOS UNDERSCORES THE IMPORTANCE OF CONTRIBUTING MEANINGFULLY AND CONSISTENTLY , FOSTERING GENUINE CONNECTIONS AND PROFESSIONAL RESPECT . 2 . PRIORITISE AND EXECUTE : AT THE OUTSET OF EACH DAY , COMPILE A LIST OF TASKS AND PRIORITISE THE THREE MOST CRITICAL OBJECTIVES . BY TACKLING THESE PIVOTAL TASKS FIRST , EVEN IF UNFORESEEN CHALLENGES ARISE LATER IN THE DAY , YOU ' VE ALREADY MADE SIGNIFICANT PROGRESS TOWARD YOUR OVERARCHING GOALS , MAINTAINING A SENSE OF ACCOMPLISHMENT AND MOMENTUM . 3 . PERSEVERE THROUGH CHALLENGES : IN MOMENTS OF OVERWHELMING FATIGUE OR ADVERSITY , RESIST THE TEMPTATION TO YIELD . INSTEAD , RECOGNIZE THAT FATIGUE MAY CLOUD JUDGMENT AND EXACERBATE FEELINGS OF DESPONDENCY . TAKE A MOMENT TO REST AND RECHARGE , RETURNING TO THE CHALLENGE WITH RENEWED VIGOUR AND CLARITY IN THE DAYS AHEAD . THIS RESILIENCE ENSURES THAT SETBACKS ARE VIEWED AS TEMPORARY HURDLES RATHER THAN INSURMOUNTABLE OBSTACLES .
11 . WHAT DOES YOUR TYPICAL DAY LOOK LIKE ? I WAKE UP VERY EARLY , WHICH ALLOWS ME TO HAVE A RELAXED MORNING . IF A MORNING IS RUSHED IT AFFECTS THE WHOLE DAY NEGATIVELY . I THEN DO MY SUPER MOM THING AND WALK MY SON TO SCHOOL , POWERWALK HOME , GRAB A CUP OF COFFEE , CHECK MY SCHEDULE FOR THE DAY , PLAN MY DAY AND THEN OFF TO WORK . MY FIRST MEETINGS ARE IN THE CAR OVER BLUETOOTH FOLLOWED BY WORKING AT ONE OF THE CLINICS THAT I AM SEEING CONSULTS AT FOR THE DAY . AS SOON AS I ARRIVE , I GET MORE COFFEE AND HAVE MY DAILY HUDDLE WITH MY TEAM . BETWEEN MEETINGS I CONSOLIDATE ACCOUNTS , PAY INVOICES , CHECK IN WITH MARKETING , FILM SOCIAL MEDIA CONTENT , DO PAPERWORK AND HAVE MY TEAM CALLS THROUGHOUT THE DAY SO THAT I REALLY AM ON TOP OF ALL THAT IS HAPPENING IN MY BUSINESS . IT ’ S ALL VERY FAST PACED AND EXCITING AND I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT !
12 . WHEN THINGS GET TOUGH WHO DO YOU RELY ON FOR HELP OR SUPPORT ? DURING CHALLENGING TIMES , I NAVIGATE A NETWORK OF TRUSTED INDIVIDUALS I AFFECTIONATELY REFER TO AS MY " WISE COUNCIL ." DESPITE THE GEOGRAPHICAL DISTANCE FROM MUCH OF MY FAMILY AND THE RESPONSIBILITIES OF SINGLE PARENTHOOD , I FIND SOLACE AND GUIDANCE IN THIS DIVERSE GROUP COMPRISING FRIENDS , MENTORS , AND SELECT FAMILY MEMBERS . EACH BRINGS A UNIQUE BLEND OF INSIGHTS , ENERGY , AND LIFE EXPERIENCES , ENRICHING MY PERSPECTIVE AND BOLSTERING MY RESOLVE . WHILE THEIR SUPPORT IS INVALUABLE , AS THE SOLE PROVIDER AND CEO , THE ULTIMATE RESPONSIBILITY RESTS WITH ME . REGARDLESS OF THE PRESSURES I FACE , I PRIORITISE FINANCIAL STABILITY AND STEADFASTLY ADHERE TO DAILY ROUTINES , WHICH SERVE AS ANCHORS AMIDST UNCERTAINTY , FOSTERING CLARITY AND RESILIENCE .
