,Do you have a plan? Or do you just wing it?
I'm sure you have a general idea of the things you need to accomplish each day, but do you have a plan to get those things done? I mean, without a specific plan, even if it's just a to-do list, things sometimes don't get done that really need to be.
I have to admit, I'm not a big planner. I've been winging it for a long time. I get most things done though occasionally something will slip through the crack of my busy day. And I usually remember just about the time I fall asleep. Big sigh here. :-)
That said, one thing I'm working on this year is to be more deliberate. To be more organized. I don't mind being organized, it's the "getting" organized I dislike.
I'm looking at several action planners. Trying to find one that works for me or that I can tweak a bit. I'm a big tweaker.
Here's some things my daily action planner will include.
Personal enrichment time - If I want to grow as a person, I need to continue to learn. Things like marketing, how to make the best use of social media, and of course, how to improve my writing.
Family time - I need to be deliberate and make time to spend with my family.
Fitness time - I sit at the computer most of the day so I need to be reminded to get up and move.
Me time - This is time to relax, maybe read some for fun or play a quick game on the puter.
Spiritual time - We all need to do something for our "spirit" and maybe I'll add in some meditation.
What would you add to the list?
