8/19/2019 3 Comments It's about TIME! I have a question for you... Do you ever hear yourself saying things like "ugh I wish I had more time!" or better yet "There's just not enough time!"??? I know that this was something that I was complaining about a lot earlier this year and I really had to check myself because - umm did you know that we ALL have the same amount of hours in the day? Uh ya. Well, we do! I had to really check myself and see if I was *actually* using my time wisely. As in, how much time was I ACTUALLY spending on my phone scrolling? Turns out it was quite a lot! I ended up really becoming more mindful of my online time and scaling back and I can honestly say that I have been a happier, more focused and more ACTIVE person since doing this! I was lucky enough to work on an episode of the MGA Podcast with Veronica from Time Management Minimalist who really brought to my attention the link between anxiety and depression with cell phone and social media usage. Well, if you've followed along with the MGA Podcast you will know that I have really been working hard to tackle my anxiety. Knowing this, I really focused on putting down my phone. I was so thankful that Veronica pin pointed one of my time usage problem areas because it has been an incredible summer since this awareness came about! Then to really put the heat on Veronica's family came to visit us from Montreal! Talk about wanting to impress the time management queen! I wanted to maximize our visit and not spend half the time in the kitchen with food and beverage prep so I did a little meal planning - which by the way I had never really done before. I always thought it was a ton of work. But I thought I would give it a try if it meant better time management. LO and BEHOLD! It worked out SO well that I can honestly say that I felt like we were fully engaged during our visit and meal prep never felt like it was taking away from friend time. I doubled up so that I had enough leftovers of certain things for lunches and I had pre-made side salads in the fridge ready to go before Veronica and her family even pulled in the driveway. It truly made our visit a breeze! Plus I was so happy when she opened my fridge and saw all of the prep I had done to make her family feel comfortable and at ease. So, because I love you SOOO much and because I really believe that meal planning is now the way to go (I also have been saving way more on groceries because I know exactly what I need and I don't have to buy things that I **might** make - ya know what I mean???) I have created a 5 day meal plan with recipes (for the non-self explanatory stuff) just for YOU to try out! There are vegan options and if you're vegetarian you can just omit the meat. I hope this helps you save a little bit of time during your week so that you can get back to doing the things you love! Check out the full episode about time management with Veronica here. Also, if you try out any of the meals or try the planning, let me know how it went and comment below!

These exercises are all good. I think that people need to do it more often to make people better. I am sure that people are not going to enjoy these exercises, but they are important. If you are not happy with what I am saying, then believe me, you are going to have a lot of problems in life. I just wish that it works for you, that is my biggest wish in today's game, that is what I can say. 7/10/2021 04:59:27 am
Time is very precious for us because we are marketers and we have a very short time for our work that is why we do not like to attend any function, 1/11/2022 05:46:23 am
I know I complained about it a lot earlier this year, and I really had to check myself because - did you know that we ALL have the same number of hours in the day? Yes, indeed. Yes, we do! Leave a Reply. |
