In my July “One Minute Note,” I welcomed readers to offer their best techniques to create time freedom.
Health Coach, Christine Gonzalez, learned a great technique from a phone conference lead by Marie Forleo. In Christine’s words:
“Whenever I feel overwhelmed with my mile-long to-do-lists, I try to make one daily goal for myself the night before I go to bed. I make it something substantial that will make me feel like I am getting through the important things on the list and make it my priority to get it done before 10am (my scheduled work-time at the pharmacy). I always start my work day like a champ! Then I feel free the rest of the day.”
Solid idea, Christine!
Family Coach, Robin Gurse recommends re-phrasing the items on your to-do list. These aren’t the things you have to do. These are the things you get to do. In Robin’s words:
“I get to do the laundry today, I get to balance my checkbook, I get to do the dishes. This makes such a difference in my approach to these ‘mundane’ (holy?) acts of everyday life.”
Great tip, Robin!
