The One Hack That Changed My Life Forever
In my personal and professional lives. Discover a secret to crushing your plateau
Hi friend, have you ever felt like you’re stuck on a hamster wheel, spinning hard but going nowhere? It’s a frustrating place to be & I’ve been there too, and I want to share a life-changing hack that has helped me break free from those stagnation moments:
Do something you’ve never done before.
Every process in life - whether it’s losing weight, building a business, advancing your career, or improving relationships - hits a plateau.
It’s frustrating because you’re not just feeling stuck; you can see it.
You’re doing the work, but nothing changes.
Here’s my hack: when I hit that wall, I do things I’ve never done before to break out of the cycle.
Want to lose weight? I swap bread for veggies and switch from cappuccinos to espresso without sugar. Small changes.
Building a business? I start doing the things I’ve been afraid of—launching this newsletter, asking for feedback, trying a new strategy.
Growing your career? I change old habits, pick up new skills, and stop relying on the same tactics.
The same applies to finding a new job, building your network, or even starting to post on LinkedIn. It’s all about getting out of your comfort zone.
Never had someone review your resume? Get a coach to give you solid feedback—old habits won’t get you new results.
Afraid to network? Make it your goal to attend 5 events this fall. Meet people. Build connections.
Want a promotion? Stop just taking on more work. Change your approach. Show leadership, not just responsibility.
Want to start posting on social media? Start small - 2 posts a week. Test things out. You don’t need a perfect strategy right away.
This hack has worked for me time and time again. Whenever I’ve felt stuck, doing something new has opened doors I didn’t even know existed.
P.S. If you’re looking to break into project management but don’t know where to start, I’ve got your back. Start here. Let’s make it happen.
With Love,
Violeta
