Combating Burnout

In this special episode of the Intentional Greatness® podcast with the City Girl Empower Hour podcast, Sue speaks with host Alyza Bohbot James about how to use the principles of EOS to become successful in both your professional and personal life. During the conversation, she discusses how important remaining disciplined is to reach your ultimate level of success. Also, Sue shares tactics to combat the feelings of burnout by saying no more often, and how committing to small, incremental daily improvements have helped her achieve more success.

Remaining Disciplined

Sue learned in her 20s that discipline is the key to all success. While she naturally tends to overfill her life and do things last minute, she found that the people she met who were intensely successful, all had one thing in common — discipline. Eventually, Sue learned from both mentors and experience, if you don’t develop discipline and practices you will eventually burn out and run yourself down.

Incremental Improvement

At 42 years old, Sue committed herself that she would get better incrementally each year, moving forward. She decided that by age 50, she would be on the road to being in the best shape of her life. Sue kept that promise to herself, and she was able to by remaining consistent and committed to improving incrementally each day. She started from her worst, most vulnerable place in life, and was able to move forward by always remaining hopeful.
