Staying On Top Of Weekly Tasks

Monday, January 18th, 2010

Something new I am using in my office is a motivational bulletin board.   I do have annual goals and keep them with me at all times, but I’ve been feeling like I need more.  I needed something to call out to me and that I can see every day.  So I installed a bulletin board and magnetic wipe board in my home office.  I placed it next to some of my favorite photos of John and I and I look at it every day. 

The bulletin board has photos, inspirational quotes and things I treasure.  Some are things people have given more and others are clippings from magazines or something I found interesting.

My Weekly Motivation

I use the magnetic wipe board to write the week’s top priorities and then create my daily To Do list from there.  So far so good - I crossed everything off my list last week. 

I know its a challenge to stay on top of the never ending To Do list, but perhaps you can install something similar in your home or office.

A Short Cut to Staying In Touch

Friday, August 8th, 2008

Okay, now I am organized, yes.  But anyone who knows me, knows I am not so great with the birthday cards, or any event card for that matter.  My sister is always reminding me to get cards in the mail for just about everything.  Well at my networking meeting, I met a representative for Send Out Cards and I am on hooked.

How this awesome tool works is you have an account, you pick from a zillion cards and send your birthday, wedding, anniversary, thank you, client cards, baby, whatever via their online system.  I sent my sister a congrats card (she is pregnant) is a few seconds and she received it in 3 days.   I didn’t have to go to Hallmark or the post office - which we all know would not have happened anyway.   Love it!
