Half-Year Resolutions?
Today is July !st. That means the year is half over. So far, so good. But, combined with the fact that my summer break is just starting, it's probably a good time to make a few resolutions. I have a friend who seems to get everything done. She doesn't talk about it, but I've seen her system when I've visited her home. She takes 3"x 5" cards and writes tasks on them. Some are daily tasks like washing dishes. I think she has a number of these which she re-uses over and over. Some are specific one-time tasks. Anyhoo, the system really works for her because, as I said, she gets it all done.
So, to follow her good example I wrote today's to-do list on a scrap of paper ( I know myself, I'd keep shuffling the index cards until I could pick a card which read "go to the movies" or some less-than-productive activity like that). My first job was to clean my very cluttered bedroom. Five minutes in, I found a Dayrunner organizer I bought 90% off a month or two ago. I think I might give that a whirl. Here's to organization!
Note: I used this image because the girl was writing AND because Niagara Falls was, for many, many years the home of Shredded Wheat. It was manufactured just a couple miles down the road. Like countless other industries, it has left the area.
