January begins a more than usual hectic time for me. My normal hectic is to work my more than full time daycare Monday thru Friday, workout 5 days a week, be gone from home for volunteer work at least 3 nights a week, and very seldom have a free weekend. That's my usual hectic life.
My more than usual hectic life will still have all of the above mentioned busy, but I will be adding into it going back to school, enlarging my health business and buckling down on getting the work begun to open my gym this summer.
How am I ever going to find the time to get all of this in?
I like my sleep...I REALLY like my sleep. I don't want to have to sacrifice it in order to accomplish all I have planned. My friend Chris from On Track With Chris has a great time management tool that she has shared with me. It is a simple time blocking tool. Simple, right? Well, you would think so. My day is all blocked out, ALL I have to do is follow what I am supposed to do at each time and everything would get done. That is all I have to do...but I just never seem to follow the blocking for very long. Oh, I always start out with the best of intentions. My blocking sheet is even color coded to help me. But within a couple of weeks I fall away from it and before long, I am not getting hardly any of my to-do done.
This time around I will find a way to make this work! This really is a must...not a want, a must. I still have a couple of weeks to tweak the blocking and find what is going to work best. I will find a way, I will make this work, I will succeed!
We all find ourselves in times of more than usual hectic. We can sink or we can swim, it is completely up to us.
