"You are being called to create clearer boundaries in your life. This could be with your friends, family, or work. Saying YES when you really mean NO leads to resentment, which is the biggest energy drain ever. If you are saying YES when you really mean NO, you are likely needing something yourself. Ask yourself, what part of me NEEDS something from them? It could be a need of approval, a fear of being seen a certain way or a fear of loss. The best way to gauge your boundaries is to check with your belly. Your belly is the second brain. It has an intelligence known as "gut feelings". Tune into this space when deciding what is OK for you."✨

I felt like sharing a message from Spirit through my Oracle cards with y'all.

Why Your Environment Is Sabotaging Your Output More Than Your To Do List

There are times when your output is often impacted by your mood and motivation to do the work at hand. However, your environment can also play a part in it. When you’ve got a to-do list that’s as long as your arm, it can be frustrating when you’re feeling demotivated and not as enthused about working on that list.

In this guide, we’ll look at why your environment is sabotaging your output and how to fix it so that every day can be a productive one.

How your environment can sabotage you

There are many ways in which the environment can end up sabotaging you. These include the following:

Lack of clarity

An environment that doesn’t have clear boundaries or dedicated zones will often blur priorities and make it difficult to get focused within the space. When you’re coming into an office or study space, you’re more likely to be able to do the work successfully.

Distractions

From notifications on your phone to messy desks or a cluttered digital space, it triggers your brain’s reward system for switching your tasks.

Those distractions can often cause you to avoid completing the deep work required and the work that often needs to take priority.

Decision fatigue

With too many choices within your environment, whether it’s what to look at next for work or a full washing machine that needs emptying, decision fatigue can set in, depleting your willpower that’s often required for the benefit of complex tasks.

Physical cues

Your desk setup can directly impact your motivation and well-being, which is why it’s important that you improve this setup so that it’s productive. From a comfortable chair to good lighting and an organized space, it’s all crucial to have.

How to improve your home environment without sabotaging your output

With all that being said, how can you tackle your home environment so that it can be improved and not sabotage your output?

Create friction for distractions

Consider turning off notifications, making use of website blockers, and putting your phone in another room to help keep those distractions at bay.

Designate physical spaces

Physical spaces should ideally be designated, with a clean desk used for deep work and a separate area for any communication or quick tasks that need to be done. The use of corporate housing can be helpful when employees need a productive workspace that also provides them with a place to live.

Prioritize ruthlessly

Consider using methods like time-blocking or using the Ivy Lee Method, which involves concentrating on the top three tasks instead of using endless lists. Structuring your environment to help support these few priorities is essential.

Build systems

Automating or simplifying routine tasks is better than doing them manually. They require less willpower and fewer decisions, which frees up mental energy often required for high-impact work.

Your environment can often be sabotaging your output, so using these tips will help you get more out of your to-do list as a result this year.

The Importance of Prioritising Yourself

In a world that celebrates hustle culture, selflessness, and multitasking, prioritising yourself can often feel like a radical act. For many, especially women in cultures that value community and family obligations, putting yourself first may even feel selfish or indulgent. But the truth is, prioritising yourself isn’t selfish—it’s necessary. When you make yourself a priority, you’re not just…
