“Plan your work for today and every day, then work your plan.”—Norman Vincent Peale
I remember when watching “What the Bleep Do we Know” they discussed consciously creating your day. As the New Year approaches, one of my goals is to become highly organized as my time is valuable and I do not want to waste a precious moment of it. Today, I am going to test out batching my errands and tasks and see how much more effective I am.
Instead of just making a list of goals, I organized them into my Outlook calendar and set a time frame for each one. The one thing I hate to do during the holidays is be out in the last minute holiday traffic jams. So as Rick Pitino advocates, I am going to do the tasks that are the hardest for me first.
Part of the law of attraction is getting super clear and focused on what you want to manifest- small and large. I will focus on the small today so I can create time and space to go back home tomorrow and spend time with my family. Instead of focusing on getting the tasks done, I am focusing now on what the results of completing each tasks will bring me.
Here is the day I created:
-
11:30-12:30- Run all errands on the road, so I can avoid wasting time by going in and out of my home and allow me to concentrate on all tasks that need to be completed at home without having the mental clutter of knowing I will be wasting time while driving around.
-
1:30-1:45- Make phone calls and schedule appointments for next week, so I can build and plan my schedule accordingly.
-
2:00-2:45- Wrap gifts, so I can mentally clear myself knowing my Christmas shopping is “done”
-
3:00-3:30- Follow up on social networking sites, so I can add value and insight to others and learn more from like minded people

3:30-4:00- Write Christmas cards and send out holiday wishes via e-mail, so I can show my appreciation for other
