Time Management for the new year!

January 2, 2008

I always get TONS of requests on info on how I do everything, so just in time for the new year here are some Time Management tips for balancing family, hubby, life, job, friends, house, etc.

I’ll be sharing advice from my friends and a few things I’ve done that have WORKED…like this:

Last year, I connected with Judy Baer to be my life-coach. Beyond my salvation, it was the best thing I’ve done for my peace of mind. Judy helps me “think through” the schedules, priorities, etc. instead of just “doing life.”

One thing I’ve discovered is I’M IN CHARGE OF MY SCHEDULE. Breaking news!
I actually use my calendar to schedule in exercise, paying bills, making dinner *gasp*, and having lunch with friends. I make the space/time work for me, instead of being a slave to the calendar. I will NEVER have everything done. So I can either enjoy life … or work myself to an early grave.

Before, I was setting myself up for failure, exhaustion, and no time to enjoy my family and friends. Now, I schedule in lunch dates, small group, and group Bible Study FIRST.

The work gets done, my family is happy, my home is peaceful, and I feel content. I fill up in order to be poured out, and everyone benefits.

From the day I received my first diary in the second grade, I've had a passion expressing myself through writing. Later as a journalist and novelist, I realized words, if used powerfully, have the ability to touch, stir, and reach from the depths of one soul to another. Today as a writing and health coach, I inspire others to live their extraordinary life and encourage them to share their unique stories.
