Welcome to 31 Days to an Organized Life & Business! For the next 31 days I will be a participant in The Nester’s 31 days Writing Challenge. Taking some of my own advice and taking you along on my journey to a life reset. I’ll be sharing (and practicing) some tips on everything from bookkeeping, shopping, managing kids, intentional parenting, work from home mom syndrome, work/life balance, spiritual reset and more. Not because I am the expert in these fields, but because they have worked for me in the past, and I so badly need them to work again for me now.
As a full time Photographer and Business Consultant, September is hard. Getting 2 kids settled into new routines, new teachers, new schedules, soccer practice, singing lessons, dinner plans, birthday activities, grocery shopping and running a couple of businesses. It’s easy to so quickly feel like life it pulling you in every direction and suddenly drowning in homework folders, bank statements, and dinner menus seem to be the norm. Throw in the unexpected things, like illnesses, death and other things, and it’s just a big hot mess.
When I say I need this reset I’m not even kidding. When I say I’ll be writing about it, I don’t mean, I’m going to talk about past advice or something that worked once for me 3 years ago.
I am saying that today is Day 1. And today I’m going to Reset my Workspace. And when I say that, I mean I’m going to hit publish on this blog post, and then I’m going to clean my desk, and put away the heaping pile of stuff that is on the chair in my office. And then work from there. That is all I can commit to today.
I feel like I can’t begin to tackle the world, or even write out a to do list if I can’t even find a pen under this mess.
So for today, I’m starting small and keeping it simple.
RESET MY WORKSPACE. Boom. I can totally do THAT.
And I’m guessing if you are reading this, and relating to any of it, you can totally to THAT too.
Did I also mention I will be in Philadelphia all day today on a 5th grade class trip leaving at 7 am? Hmm… not sure HOW I’m going to do THAT yet, but I read that Beyonce has the same amount of hours in a day as I do, so I can totally RESET MY WORKSPACE by the time I go to bed today.
