Dear high achievers, just because you can do it all doesn’t mean you should. In fact, that’s probably what’s keeping you from reaching that higher (happier) level of success you’ve been craving. Whether you’re trying to finally lock down that promotion or you’re looking for a sense of accomplishment that’s been missing for years, it’s likely that your talents and focus are being spent unwisely.

It’s very common for successful people to get caught up in taking on too many things, often forwarding others’ agenda. And, honestly, life brings us one noble challenge after another: career, kids, aging parents, relationships, finances. And, somehow we are supposed to be expertly successful at everything?! Unfortunately, being a “good” spouse, parent, employee, caregiver, etc. begins to smother the naturally powerful version of who we always wanted to be as individuals. You seem to be following all the rules, but it doesn’t feel like your winning, does it?

With as hard as you are working, you should feel like a rockstar by now, but you don’t. And what’s worse, you come across so capable that no one thinks to offer you help. (And, you may not know to ask for it.) Until now. It’s time to review your back-to-back obligations to see what’s valuable vs. simply time-consuming. It’s time to restructure how you use your time and talent. You have Achievement Fatigue and it’s a sneaky dream killer. But I’ve got the solution.
