This week I have been reading the book Manage Your Day-to-Day: Build Your Routine, Find Your Focus, and Sharpen Your Creative Mind (The 99U Book Series)
. Since I am now a stay at home/work at home mom it has come to my attention that I really need to get my stuff together. I am all over the place doing things, yet nothing is actually getting done. My to do list still looks the same as yesterday. What the?
I love this quote. "It's not about the ideas. It's about making the ideas happen." Personally I feel like I have ideas by the truck load. They range on their level of awesome. Some are down right ridiculous. Execution has always been my shortfall. My ideas mean nothing if I am the only one who knows about them.
This week we are going to learn how to make all of our fabulous ideas happen. We will be taking control of our chaotic lives and putting things in order. This book has opened my eyes to a lot of smart concepts for creating structure with a creative mind. Clearly that is the problem here, I'm just too creative to be organized, right? Ha!
Here's the schedule - see, already setting up some structure.
Day One: Building a Rock Solid Routine
Day Two: Finding Focus in a Distracted World
Day Three: Taming Your Tools
Day Four: Sharpening Your Creative Mind
Grab the book from Amazon so you can follow along. You will be inspired. Promise.
Before we get started take a little stock now.
How focused are you during the day? How many items get checked off of your to do list? Do you keep a schedule? Are you distracted easily?
