You Can't Organise Your Way Out of a Mindset Problem
Manage episode 479515489 series 3652551
Have you ever wondered why your organisational systems fall apart no matter how perfect they seem at first? The answer might lie not in your storage solutions or time management apps, but in your mindset.
The Vexanova Technique™ I share in this episode provides the missing piece in the organization puzzle. This powerful five-step framework (Recognise, Reveal, Replace, Rewrite and Reinforce) helps you identify and transform the limiting beliefs holding you back from lasting change. Whether you're constantly telling yourself "I don't have enough time" or "I'm just not organised enough," these thought patterns are likely sabotaging your efforts to create order.
I open up about my personal struggle with time management and how my unstructured childhood combined with society's glorification of maternal busyness created beliefs that kept me feeling constantly overwhelmed. By applying The Vexanova Technique™, I transformed not just my schedule but my entire relationship with time. The real breakthrough comes when we shift from a reactive mindset (putting out fires) to a proactive one (preventing them in the first place).
Perhaps surprisingly, I also address the dangers of over-organisation; a trap I fell into myself. Perfectionism can be just as destructive as disorganisation, damaging relationships and mental health when we refuse to accept anything less than flawless execution. The sweet spot lies somewhere in between, where organisation serves as a tool rather than a taskmaster.
Try this technique with whatever area has you feeling stuck and remember, your environment might not change overnight, but your mindset can and that makes all the difference.
