You often hear about setting up rewards to motivate yourself to stick with habits or achieve your goals. But our rewards can often turn into a sneaky form of punishment that leaves us feeling inadequate and unworthy. Tune in to find out if you are accidentally punishing yourself on the way to your goal, and how you can make it a more enjoyable experience instead. Which of course means you’re more likely to actually get there!

People make time for what’s important. If someone was watching you go about your day, would they be able to tell what is important to you? If there is a mismatch between what you say is important to you and what you’re actually spending your time on, you’re not alone, particularly as a woman. In this episode I’m looking at why this happens and what you can do to align your day with what is important to you. Because when you do that, you are living your best case scenario.

Today I’m diving into the idea of bonus results. When you want something and you decide to intentionally work towards it, you will create bonus results. Putting one foot in front of the other, repeating what works and tweaking what doesn’t, is how you become the person who achieves the goal. The thing that is fun but also kind of strange is, by the time you get there, the result is just a bonus. I didn’t really get this for a long time, so in this episode I’m laying it out for you so you too can create bonus results in your life and business.

Let’s be real - when you’re working on something and you’re not seeing results, it sucks. Especially if you’re a high achiever who is used to things coming easily, and you look around and everyone else seems to be moving faster than you. This is where it’s easy to lose your motivation and think about giving up.
But giving up guarantees you won’t get the result you’re after. In this episode I’m sharing why you should keep going, and how exactly you can, right up until you make it happen.

So you set a goal. You were excited and hopeful. You had doubts but you know that’s normal. But now, you’re at The Date when you should have achieved your goal, and it hasn't happened. You didn’t get there. Now what?
I am quite the expert on not hitting goals. And for a long time I struggled with these questions: How can you aim for something, not hit it, and be okay with that - isn’t that the same as giving up? What is even the point of setting goals if you don’t hit them? On today’s episode I’m answering these questions and giving you a new way to think about not hitting your goals.

- why you might avoid declaring what you really want
- what happens when you make a declaration
- how to make a powerful declaration that will actually set things in motion

It’s not called magical for nothing - I truly believe that magic occurs when you lay out exactly how you want to be spending your time, even if it doesn’t seem realistic right now with everything that you have going on.

“How can I make myself accountable? How can I make sure I actually do what I say I’m going to do?” These are questions that I often get asked. I’m answering those questions on this episode. I talk about the difference between internal and external accountability and why one is not better than the other, but how I’ve found that one can lead to the other. I also share a gem that I discovered when I was looking up the definition of accountability, and how it perfectly matches my thoughts on how the simple act of planning your time can develop your accountability.

I didn’t know what to call this episode, because I know the mention of a monthly review used to have me rolling my eyes. It was NOT something I wanted to spend my time on. But now I’m a convert! In this episode I’m sharing why reviewing your month is so valuable. Before you roll your eyes, have a listen to find out how looking back over your month helps you:
- Remember what actually happened instead of judging yourself based on current feelings;
- Look at ALL of your results
- Learn from the expert - yourself!
- Keep on track with creating your best case scenario

This week I’m diving into one of the things that makes planning work for me - white space. White space is that time in your calendar with nothing assigned to it. Having white space on your calendar allows you to be more flexible, more spontaneous, and give yourself more downtime. It’s counter-intuitive, but putting less on your calendar helps you get more done, and feel better while doing it. That’s been my experience anyway, and in this episode I’m sharing the importance of white space with you.

You know a goal without a plan is just a wish, but what if planning just never seems to work for you? Well it’s not because you’re not cut out for planning. In today’s episode I share how I went from thinking exactly that, to becoming a person who makes plans easier and faster, allows more space in her calendar, and spends her time intentionally, with the bonus side-effect of getting more done. I also talk about the 6 things that helped make planning work for me, and give you an exercise that you can do this week that will make a difference in your planning straight away.

If you haven’t created the result you wanted yet, it’s easy to focus on how far away you are. But the fact is, you have already created a whole pile of results. Where are you living your best case scenario right now? The scenario that past you desired?
In this episode I share how reflecting on the past year allowed me to realise how much I have created, despite not reaching my big goal, and how you can build your confidence in reaching your goal by recognising what you have already achieved.

When I started setting goals for myself and planning my time, I went about it entirely the wrong way. I finally figured out an approach that worked for me, one that got me working towards a goal while also keeping in mind all the other things going on in my life, without hustle or overwhelm. Planning became a way to spend my time intentionally and protect my priorities. This became the Best Case Scenario method, and in today's episode I'm telling you all about it.
Continuing the series on goals this December, today I’m talking about goal downsizing. Goal downsizing is when you change your goal to make it more realistic or achievable. It seems to make sense, right? In this episode I’m digging in to why downsizing your goal is NOT helpful, and how to approach your goal when it looks like you’re not going to hit it by the date you set.

Are you dreaming of something amazing?
Having a dream feels good, it gives you a sense of what could happen. But the Cambridge Dictionary’s definition of a dream is “something that you want to happen very much but that is not very likely”. Which is precisely why goals are better than dreams, even though a goal does not always feel good!
In this episode Nasreen dives into why we sometimes stay in dream mode, and why the only way a dream can come true is by making it a goal.
The Best Case Scenario 2022 program includes a 1:1 call to do just that. You’ll get super clear on your goal and then use the Best Case Scenario method over 12 weeks to make it happen. Find out more on instagram @nasreenjoy.
