Okay. New Year New Me.... Again. Let's see if this will last.
12/31/2012 - Tomorrow is the beginning of a new year. Instead of waiting, let's see if my new plan works. It is a modified version of the Mary Kay Plan:
God First
Me Second
Family third
Career Fourth
Plan B Fifth.
Everyone says to make sure that you handle the big things and the little things will fit in. Let's see.
God First: Everyday, I need to thank God for all that he has given me. For every single problem I have, there are hundreds of thousands of people that would like to upgrade to my problems.
Me Second: this is not the selfish thinking of only myself 'me'. Normally, I put EVERYONE ahead of my needs. Seriously, even the mailman! So now, for at least one hour each week, I will focus on at least one of those things that help improve my quality of life. This encompasses: Mental Health(Reading/Inspirational/Self-improvement/Pedicure), Physical Health(refocus on weight loss, nutrition, etc), Financial health (Budgeting/Record Keeping/etc), Environmental activities(House keeping (ugh)/ House improvements).
Family Third: Make sure that I contact and connect with each member of my family everyweek. Need to create a schedule on that.
Career Fourth: Generally, this has been first. I personally need to look at no more than 50 hours a week and really only look at 40 hours a week. That's the 'plan'.
Plan B fifth: My Mary Kay Business. Note that this alone fits into multiple categories but I want to ensure that I spend at least one hour a week focusing on the business - outside of the team meetings.
I signed up for flylady.net to help me start being organized. Realized I did not have anything to do step one with, so went to Walmart. They happened to have all types of organizational things as well. So I have organizational stuff as well as getting my flylady.net stuff done.
Back tomorrow for further info.
