Schedule IT
When you think about your life,
do you think things happen the way they happen or do you plan the way things
happen? If you don’t plan your days do they happen the way you hoped? Did you
even hope your day would go in any particular way? Do you wake up and say this
is my intention for the day? Add a little gratefulness that you have a day to
contemplate and make the way you want and then start the day with some
intention and momentum!TimerSAVINGS
Make your plan to be wise in your
purchases. Schedule your payments so they are automatically paid timely.
Avoiding unnecessary late fees or NSF is a great savings that is nothing more
than scheduling your finances. Schedule your expenses and know what you really
need to actually survive and what you have as discretionary income. Most of us
have some money at the end of the week, however we make decisions during the
week that leave us without much to show for it. So each time you spend money,
ask yourself, “Will I be happy 3 months from now that I made this purchase or
will I even remember it?” Not all purchases need to be memorable, however, too
many of them are just made without even thinking.
TimerDIET
Knowing what you are going to eat
and when is the best scheduling activity you can do for yourself. Make sure
that you eat often, about every 3 hours, but the most important thing is to
schedule it. Put a reminder in your phone to ask yourself if you are hungry.
Figure out your menu’s and plan for a well-balanced meal each and every time
you eat. Of course don’t forget to schedule your exercise daily. Everyday plan
to get 30 minutes of exercise. Put a reminder in your calendar and just plan on
making it part of your daily routine. You will feel so much better! Do it for
stress relief, to make you feel better, whatever you do—don’t do it because you
think you need to lose weight!
TimerORGANIZER
You’ve heard it before—if you
schedule your time you will get more done, but have you thought about the
confidence that you get from being scheduled and sticking to your schedule. It
is as if you have a dozen mini goals every day and you achieve them and suddenly
your self-confidence improves. Scheduling your time allows you to decide each
day—What is important?
If you have never been on a
schedule try it for a day, then a week, and if you like it and find you get
more out of each day keep it up. Break up your day into no more than 2 hour
blocks of time and remind yourself to take short 5 minute breaks once an hour. Ironically
this will not break your momentum, it will actually give you a boost of making
a goal and succeeding!!
