Get Jazzed & Joyful Thought 11/31/11
We've all heard of Spring cleaning. However, the seasons have changed. We are officially into Fall with Winter and all the Holidays that go along with it not far behind. It may seem overwhleming to think about it- after all it seems that we barely have time to do the regular day to day things in our life! Don't panic! Take a deep breath in and then out- and Relax!
Today is the day!
Start with making a list. List all the things that you want to accomplish for the Fall/ Winter. This is NOT a list that is meant to get done in a day or even a week. Just take 1-3 things on your master list and put them on your daily list.
Find one thing you have been procrastinating about and take action! Set a timer for 15 minutes or maybe a half an hour and when the timer goes off - Stop! Now move on to another task. At the end of the day you will be surprised at how much you have accomplished- even if it is only one thing! That's one thing you can take off your list.
The good News is that this Saturday we set our clocks back an hour - so we get an extra hour to use! Yeah!
Keep your focus on just doing a little bit each day. Your timer will become your best friend. Your sense of accomplishment will grow each day.
So go ahead! Start with one timer zone. Invest just 15 minutes at a time and see what fabulous results happen!
Affirm:
I can accomplish all my tasks 15 minutes at a time!

Do one thing right Now
Get Jazzed & Joyful Thought:
Is there something that you have been procrastinating about, putting on hold, telling yourself you will do it later, when the time is right, when you're in a better space, when you have more money, when you feel better, have more time, more energy, when you get all of your other projects done ... ? The list goes on and on.
Remind yourself that every time you tell yourself I will do this when ....you are putting a restriction on action. You are telling yourself that you cannot take action until ...
Just for today practice getting out of your comfortable inaction zone and take action on one thing that you have put on hold.
Affirm:
Today I decide that "when" is NOW and I take immediate action on one of my goals!
Have a Take Action NOW Monday!
