We are one week less for 2022 to wrap up and I hope you're feeling excited to start fresh. I know it's been a long year but don't worry, we're almost there. This week I want to focus on my goals for the few days remaining to wrap the year up. So, what are yours?
Here’s the first thing I do on a Monday morning, it just might be useful to someone here. The first thing I do on Monday morning is check my email. It is important to not spend a lot of time on emails. I skim through them and see if there are any urgent emails that need my attention. If there are none, I then answer the ones that can be answered quickly and move on to the next one. I’ll see some and tell myself “Ok Kelly, You don't have to answer that one right now”. Remember, never spend too much time reading emails, just skim through them.
For me, the pre-work routine starts with a cup of coffee. I like to start off my day with a good cup of coffee. I typically go for a cappuccino, and then I get to work.
I usually start my day by reading through my emails and taking care of any urgent messages that need attention. After that, I take care of any tasks on my list that are due today or later in the week.
I also spend time working on personal projects and now added to my list as part of being an hiver is planning for future blog posts. These days, one of the most important things for me is to find time to read and learn about new topics in order to stay relevant as a writer.
I often feel exhausted by the end of the day and I don't have the energy to read or learn about new topics. Luckily, there are so many tools and resources available to help me do this including the several recommendations I got from invaluable hivers on my introductory post.
Goals for the Week Ahead & How to Make This Week Your Best Yet
This week is going to be a busy one for me. I have a lot of work to do and my time is limited. I need to make the most of it!
I am going to create a list of everything that needs to get done this week and organize it by days. Then, I will prioritize those tasks so that I can make sure they are completed on time. This way, I will not feel overwhelmed by my workload and will be able to focus on what matters most.
Adopt this strategy this week and you’ll find yourself beating deadlines in your tasks.
Remember, It’s Monday, so hit harder.
