Good morning and Happy Friday! It’s been a great week for me; I’ve been productive and focused and moving forward. This progress didn’t simply happen, and it certainly wasn’t immediate. It’s taken a lot of work over many days, weeks, months, and I am building momentum. It feels great! So nice to be centered in my purpose, operating in my passion zone, and focused on what matters most.
So, as I prepare for my weekend, I know exactly what I need to focus on: First, family time. I think we need a field trip to the farmer’s market or the WV Zoo (yes, I was surprised to discover this, but apparently there is a zoo in WV). Second, preparation for a couple of workshops I have booked mid-October — one focused on communication fundamentals and one on Laws of Growth and Laws of Leadership. Third, catch up on bookkeeping. Fourth, some reading, writing, and studying. Oh, and yoga!
Next week, I will spend time planning for an upcoming team building and communication workshop, hold several coaching appointments, and prepare for a new Mastermind Group on John Maxwell’s newest book (to be launched October 10th with a live webcast — more on this in a separate post) Sometimes You Win, Sometimes You Learn.
You know what’s coming next, right?
What’s your plan for the weekend?
Whom do you need to spend time with?
What do you need to do for yourself?
Do you need to focus on work, learning, projects, or rest?
What do you need to do to prepare yourself for success on Monday, in the coming weeks, and even months?
How much better do you feel when you are intentional about how you spend your weekend time and how you prepare for the coming days and weeks?
I would love to hear if you are following this practice and what affects it’s having on your life.
I have been doing this for over 30 years…I have a master plan for every week that includes work and personal life…yes it works…I also allow for spontaneity to sweeten the journey.
I’m impressed! Your consistency shows a high level of discipline (something I’m investing considerable time and focus on — in three specific areas — through my Maxwell Growth Plan). It does work and I think it makes a tremendous difference with attitude, stress, and enjoyment. Thank you for reading and commenting. I love to hear from you!
