The first week of the New Year has actually started off pretty good. I mean nothing miraculous happened, nothing earth shattering or life altering, but on the up side nothing terribly bad happened (at least nothing that I couldn’t handle). I’ve actually been rather productive, at least more than normal, and while there are still things on my to-do list for the week that haven’t been completed yet, I would say that I am very proud of what I’ve accomplished so far.
That’s not saying that I don’t have a lot of improvement to do, especially in my time management skills, but I am a work in progress (as we all are) and I have progressed into not beating myself up over the things that didn’t get done. I just know that I have to be more determined and more persistent in getting my list completed next week. I do have some major things that I have to tackle over the weekend in the efforts to finish putting the magazine together and that is actually going to be my main focus for the weekend.
I don’t know why I have not mastered the art of time management yet but I really hope that I can shuffle things around a lot better in the coming weeks. I have been replacing most of my negative thoughts and fears with positive outlooks and all in all (unlike the last few years) I am feeling very optimistic for this year. Well I hope all of you have had a very productive first week of the New Year and that all of your projects are off and running.
I have the Write 2 Be Productive and Prosperous… What is your Write 2 Be?
