Stop Hustling and Start Thriving Right Now.




Become a high-performer by focussing on your unique capabilities.


Having a ‘Side-Hustle’ seems to be the most highly promoted idea in the world today. The idea is that everyone needs to burn the midnight candle living the “Side-Hustle life”, to be successful. However, counter-intuitive as it may seem, hyperactivity does not mean high productivity or high performance. Too much hustle is detrimental to our personal and professional lives and often leads to low performance in both areas.


Identifying and growing our core strengths and expertise, focussing on what is important and not urgent, and picking few, but key effective behaviors produce greater long-term results and help us to thrive and flourish.



Learn the key drivers to thriving in your personal and professional lives.

1. Identifying and growing your core expertise produces greater results long-term.

“People thrive by focusing on the question of who they really are and connecting that to work that they truly love.” – Po Bronson

Contrary to what is constantly promoted, hustling diffuses focus, instead of enhancing focus leading to poorer results instead of strengthening our core expertise and area of growth and contribution. Focussing on developing and improving your core strengths and unique abilities is the key driver for greater success in our lives. All of us have certain unique capabilities. These are areas that we naturally find ways to spend our time, energy, and interest in, come more easily to us and are something that others come to rely on us for, whether we are aware of it or not. These are the areas to discover our core strengths. Develop these areas and pathways to grow and develop for better results.


2. Focus on the important not the urgent.

When we hustle, we often forget to prioritize what is important. When we hustle so much, then everything is urgent and an emergency. We diffuse our time, energy, and resources on what is unimportant, and do make any real progress on our goals. Take some time daily to fix what is important for the day, and schedule a time that works best for you.


3. Hyperactivity does not mean hyper-productivity.

Real performance comes from identifying the few key effective drivers. It gives you a route or a pathway to get the result you desire. Effective behaviors are those behaviors that produce real results. Before immediately jumping in to commit to the first few ideas and behaviors, take a little time to explore if that behavior will give you the results you want.


So, let’s re-look at what is being promoted as hustle and grind, and explore and examine what real performance and being productive means, and how we can achieve that.


Hope this is helpful in your Shine Journey to be inspired, learn, grow, get better and shine a little brighter, not just in our own lives, but in our families and the world around us, in small, simple, and easy ways.

Remember, Shine starts with small, and if sustained daily, becomes significant over time.

Shine On, and wishing you the best to inspire and help others shine as well!
