How I Get Things Done
I was inspired to write this post after I read
by David Allen. (Read my review.)
Routine
I was raised on a routine, going to school to be a teacher, they emphasized routines, and we have had many routines in our home. Our routine is flexible, but we usually do things in the same order most days. Having a routine helps me accomplish more, because I know when I will usually have time to be productive and I usually know about how much time will be available (however, I still always over plan)! 😉
I know that the earlier I get up, the more I can accomplish before others get up. However, I’m a morning person, so this works for me. Come 9 PM and I am done. I am super lucky if I am productive after that time. I have learned to work with my body instead of against it. I will plan sedentary or easy things to do at night (reading, blogging, etc) and try to get the more labor intensive things done first thing in the morning.
