Pity or Power?

April 27, 2022 | By Joy Chudacoff Leave a Comment

Finding Joy Every Day - Pity vs. Power on She's Got Moxie

Has your 2022 gotten off to an unexpected, rocky start?

It can be all too easy for the year to pass you by before you get the chance to manifest what you’ve been dreaming about. Today I’m going to walk you through the steps to get ALIGNED and step into your power.

In this episode, I talk about Pity vs. Power and how to recognize where you are right now. I also talk about what it means to “go for gold” and share some tough questions that we should be asking ourselves, like: “What am I pretending not to know?”

Listen in as we set goals and take action together and practice an easy three step process to visualize what you really want.

Smart Women and the 5% Solution

August 28, 2009 | By Joy Chudacoff Leave a Comment

At first, I didn’t give the question too much thought. It just didn’t feel like I could create value in the important areas of my life with just 5% more responsibility. After all, when it comes to thinking about spending more time doing anything, we typically have a whole list of excuses—right? I can give you a few of my excuses:

“I don’t have time.”
“I’m too busy.”

However, after some thoughtful consideration during the exercise, I realized that 5% responsibility in terms of my time was about an hour a day of television.

I’m sharing this exercise with you this week because it was powerful for me. 5% seemed inconsequential to me at first. Typically, we believe that we need to give so much of our time to aspects in our lives if we want them to improve or experience greater benefits. That was the genius of the exercise; To experience and visualize the many benefits we could receive in our lives if we only took 5% more responsibility. Here are a few Aha’s that came out of this exercise for me:

1.  If I were to take 5% more responsibility for the success of my Relationships I would:

  • Have weekly date nights with my husband
  • Have dates nights with each of my children
  • Have regular phone calls to my sister who lives on the East Coast

2.  If I were to take 5% more responsibility for the success of my Health I would:

  • Schedule in one more day per week for cardio exercise
  • Meditate one more day per week for a calm and focused mind

3.  If I were to take 5% more responsibility for the success of my business I would:

  • Attend at least one additional networking event per month

How about you? If you were asked these same questions, how would you answer them? Mine were about Relationships, Health and Business. What would yours be? Where could you create the greatest impact in your life if you took 5% more responsibility?
