The subject is as relevant as ever, so we thought we'd run it again in case you missed it the first time!\n\nLike the dog in the movie Up who shouts \"Squirrel!\", we can so easily get distracted by new and exciting things. This week Janine and Shannon discuss Bright Shiny Object Syndrome and some strategies for resisting it, as well as for harnessing it for good.\n\nDiscussion topics include:\n\n\u2022 How easy it is to be pulled away by bright shiny objects (BSOs)\n\u2022 Shannon\u2019s 90-day plans that help her resist the BSOs\n\u2022 The importance of having a system in place to take note of the BSOs so you can come back to them later\n\u2022 Using Bright Shiny Object Syndrome to your advantage\n\u2022 How Janine harnesses her penchant for BSOs by using Trello for task management\n\u2022 Building BSOs into your plan for your day\n\u2022 Identifying why you\u2019re drawn to a particular BSO to help you modify your existing projects/systems to make them more attractive to you\n\u2022 How being kind to yourself fits into the picture\n\nVisit the show notes at www.gettingtogoodenough.com for links.","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300,"thumbnail_url":"https://artwork.captivate.fm/cd2e0d56-1e2f-481a-8571-c4663350c6a6/648i5bBT0OJL-jqDq5kKTfH1.png"}
