I used to be, and am still working on, being an "extreme-ist". I tend to go all in on things, leaving no time, space, or energy for other things. For example, on my days off work, I find myself having a list of things to get done for the day, but occasionally I'll sleep in. I'll end up going to the gym in the middle of the day, and I'll give the gym all have, so I get home and have no energy to accomplish anything for the rest of the day. But, when there is a list (written down where I can see it *very important*), I can plan out where to give my energy, and prioritize my tasks. I'll even have a shorter workout knowing that I need to save some energy!
When my tasks pile up, it becomes paralyzing thinking about a giant heap of THINGS to get done. Breaking it up into a couple chunks each day makes it feel more manageable. Here's how I was able to implement some organization in my life:
Helps establish structure and routine in daily life.
Have you ever experienced the sensation of having an overwhelming number of tasks to accomplish within a day, week, or even a year? Do you find yourself feeling paralyzed by the mounting pressure of these responsibilities, unable to take action? It sounds like you need some structure and routine.
Start by getting a calendar.
Write down the tasks you want to achieve during the day.
Put a checkmark next to the tasks you finish. (it feels really good lol)
Celebrate yourself for your daily accomplishments!
Repeat the next day.
Focus on winning each day. Stay in the moment.
Once you establish a routine, you can start planning for each week, then each month :)
Increases productivity by creating momentum and focus.
Setting Clear Goals: provides direction and motivation to maintain consistency.
Prioritizing Tasks: Focusing on high-priority tasks first can help in making progress consistently.
Avoiding Multitasking: Concentrating on one task at a time enhances productivity and ensures better focus.
Taking Breaks: Incorporating short breaks between tasks can help in maintaining energy levels and sustaining focus throughout the day.
Tracking Progress: Monitoring daily habits and progress can provide a sense of accomplishment and encourage continued consistency.
Builds discipline and self-control over time.
By establishing and sticking to daily routines, you can train your mind and body to act in a disciplined manner, regardless of external circumstances or distractions. This helps you develop a strong sense of self-control, enabling you to resist temptations, stay focused on your goals, and make better decisions!! The recipe to success!
