Eugenia Pantahos on Backing Yourself
It’s been a week since I flew to Sydney for a book signing event for both Greek Life now in its 3rd print run, and Greek Food For Sharing in it’s 2nd print run. I was met with people waiting in the store ready to meet me. I got there 15 minutes early. I also discovered that dozens of people had placed orders for multiple books each and that there were bags waiting for me to sign the books, and some had requests for personal messages. These people couldn’t come to the signing yet had paid for the books in advance and put their requests in. More people came, more books were signed, and people stayed to share conversations, hugs, and to be part of the amazing energy of the day. Initially the shop owner and I had agreed on a one hour window so as to maximse who would show up. I was prepared to stay for two, realistically, however I was there for 3.5 hours followed by the longest goodbye. It was a huge success, rewarding and ever so meaningful. What made even more special was to have my daughter Helena and my great-niece Lilli with me on the day. So special indeed. Tune in to learn why backing yourself is the key to success.

How to Cultivate Optimism

How to Cultivate Optimism
How do we increase the likelihood of our personal success? It's about cultivating the habit of being optimistic, and in the process creating realistic goals and taking positive action. Optimistic people have a solution for every problem. Conversely, pessimistic people have a problem for every solution. Optimistic people are creative, they possess problem-solving skills, and see the world as 'us' and not 'them'. This group of people experience less stress and usually enjoy better health because of it. They are operating from their locus of control, and this self-belief is a great motivating force that fuels the conviction that they will triumph in face of challenges and difficulties. Remember the message in the book, The Little Engine that Could? It goes: "I think I can! I think I can!"....and yes, it's a great reminder that our mindset matters. The question isn't who is going to let me; it's who is going to stop me? - Ayn Rand Tune in to listen to the full episode. Are you a start-up wanting to design a path for your business?

The Sum of Your Thoughts
Sometimes the stories swirling around your mind take momentum and hijack your thinking. You know how the story goes. Something external to you has occurred and it is the trigger for negative self-talk, or feelings of self-righteousness, and before you know it both lack and insecurity creep in, and you will find all the reasons and biases to support your thinking. The lens from which you view life, has lost it’s rose coloured hue. Your executive brain can no longer be relied upon to make good decisions. It’s in these moments that your life’s regrets may happen. This is when reactions occur instead of responses. You might find yourself feeling as though your in a fight or flight response. The question is how to bring back equilibrium. How do you lower the anxiety that has just occurred and elevate your executive thinking, and thereby mitigating the risk of embarrassing yourself and others, or from diving into a negative downward spiral?

How To Get Out Of Your Own Way
Life can be challenging, and as the CEO of your life and business, you can get stuck. You’re not quite yourself. Inspiration may have left the building. Self-doubt creeps in, and sometimes you can be our own worst enemy, ruminating, overthinking, holding your own perspective and guarding it like precious gold. Surely if you’ve thought of some life diminishing, imposter syndrome, belittling thought ---- it must be true..! I’m here to tell you differently. You see, one thought creeps in and suddenly you lose trust with yourself, with others, you lose your drive, your focus and you become stuck. Essentially you have given a single thought more power than in deserves, and in the process disempowered yourself. Tune in now. Are you a start-up wanting to design a path for your business?

What Makes Chanel Unique

What Makes Chanel Unique
Recently I launched the VRIO framework as a free download on the Business Class Collective website. This framework designed by Jay Barney in 1991, looks at competitive advantage. VRIO is an acronym for Valuable, Rare, Inimitable and Organised. Head over to and download it for free. So today, in line with this framework, I thought the looking at the Chanel brand might put things into perspective. So let’s get started. Chanel is a French luxury fashion house founded in 1910 by Coco Chanel in Paris. It is privately owned by the Wertheimer family and has been headquartered in London since 2018. Chanel specializes in women's ready-to-wear, luxury goods, and accessories.

How to Get Energised

How to Get Energised
Life can be joyous, fun, exciting and purposeful. And we can also experience distraction, anxiety, discomfort, low energy, confusion, brain fog, and overwhelm. Causes can be from happenings in the workplace, personal relationships, family responsibilities or simply navigating every day life. Running a business and meeting timelines and everyday demands, can often have business owners, executives and their teams lacking in wellness. Long days, working late, eating on the run, fuelling on coffee and other stimulants can wreak havoc on your wellbeing as well as your mindset. If you’re not looking after yourself with a balanced diet, getting adequate restorative sleep, sunshine and exercise, you may feel that you’re dragging your feet and not working or operating in your optimal zone. The question is how do we take back some control and bring harmony and energy back into the equation? Firstly it’s to value your time and to prioritise who has access to you and for how long. Are the relationships that you’re investing in bringing joy and contentment or are you treading a precarious tightrope just to get by. Secondly, aside from weight, perhaps another measure of wellness is your energy levels. Do you have a bounce in your step and manage to get through your day feeling lively and excited, or are you dragging your feet just to make it through to midday? Everything is more difficult if you’re feeling tired, so it’s time to examine your life and get back on top of it. When harmony is lacking from your life, you tend to rinse and repeat a cycle that interferes with the power to function, regenerate and heal. It’s like dipping into a bank account that eventually goes into the red. At first, your bodies will whisper a warning, then perhaps a few more in the hope that you hear the message loud a clear. But alas, for some the whisper then becomes a roar, and that usually stops you in our tracks. Your body is demanding attention, and if you don’t give it the right attention, it goes on strike!

The Importance of Setting Priorities

The Importance of Setting Priorities
What is a priority? It’s basically something that is more important than other things and that needs to be done or dealt with first. Prioritisation helps you focus and feel more confident and effective, and by prioritising your most important work first, it helps you take control of your time and ensures you meet important timelines. Your productivity is linked to your priorities. You want to be more productive, seek career success, and to work smarter and not harder. You seek work life harmony where you can feel that you can have it all. But unless you learn to prioritise you’ll always feel that you’re chasing your tail. First things first. Energy levels impact produtivity. So how do you keep your energy levels high? It’s about enjoying a balanced diet, keeping hydrated, working when it most suits your bio rhythms – think night owl or morning lark – and also getting some exercise and sunshine. Secondly, time management is the other key to woring towards your priorities. Without effective time management you’ll procrastinate, waste time, your attention span will wane, and your valuable time and energy is wasted. Identifying your priorities helps you focus and reduces distraction and overwhelm. Protecting time and using time effectively can make all the difference to how your day pans out. Do you know how you spend your time, or does time slip away from you? Understanding time, goal setting and time management is crucial to working effectively and efficiently. Some people love writing lists of what needs to be done, and others use technology to build projects and tasks. I use a combination of both.
