Time's my friend today

I'm constantly struggling to finish things everyday.  Always in a rush, I feel so exhausted around this time. Today however, is a big exemption. Time seems to be a so friendly to me.  Everytime, I look at the clock, I wonder if my clock is functioning right.  I've accomplished a lot already and it's only past 3pm EST.  My stress level is so low.  Thank God!  What's my secret?  I'll let you know once I'm done with this time-management experiment. 

In the mean time enjoy what I listed on today.

Day 6 One-A -Day Series "TimeEaters"

When I made my first weekend review about this series, I've found out that there are so many "time eaters" (I don't' call it wasters since they are part of everyday living) that I need to address inorder for me to maximize my accomplishments. These are:
1. Disorganized files --- I 've been spending a total of 60 minutes looking for things or files.
2. Multi-tasking to the extreme.
3. Clutter --- I know most of you  crafters can relate.
4. Habits --- Yes, habits are really hard to break but I'm committing on changing something this year.
5. Focus --- sometimes I'm easily distracted, other time, so caught up with one thing.

To make this challenge more interesting, I'm also including ONE special TO-Do that will give me satisfaction and evetually,  manage my time more.
Will you be up for it too?

One a Day Series Weekend Review

Last weekend, I decided to evaluate my One-A-Day Series.  I realized that in order to accomplish more on a given day, I have to befriend TIME.  Yes, the 24 hour phenomenon that we experience everyday.  Setting goals and having a strategy needs a specific timeframe in order for something to be brought into reality.   Most of us feel that we don't have much time.  Since we can't do anything to extend it to 25- or even 26 hours, it's up to us to work with it. 

So what are you doing to maximize your time?
