A Fresh Start


Yesterday I made a giant to-do list for the week ahead. Aside from my typical tasks, I listed a few goals for the week:

1. Dress for work every day.
2. Reply to emails as they come.
3. Do your hair.
4. Keep your desk clean.
5. Start each day with a happy song.
6. Load up on the bracelets.
7. Save your money.
8. Don't sweat the small stuff.

A much better way to welcome a Monday, don't you think?

  2. I need to do the same thing. Feel like I've been falling behind and getting into some bad "work from home" habits.

  6. Such a simple, but great list (always looking for an excuse to wear more bracelets)

    This song has been my go-to to put me in a good mood in the morning :)

  9. What a great to-do list... wish mine didn't have so much school work added onto it though ;) Hope you accomplish them all and are able to cross each one off with a smile!

  21. I absolutely love the idea of creating a separate "to-do" list of goals for the week that will make me feel better instead of stressing me out like my normal list of to-dos. Thanks so much for sharing. I can't wait to start next Monday out on a positive note! :)

  24. I reeeeeally could have used this list to start my week yesterday -- so will definitely hop to it tomorrow! Desk is a mess, inbox is OOC and the getting dressed and doing hair part? Yeeeah, so did not happen today!

    ReplyDelete
  25. I need to do this! I'm the queen of to-do-lists, I should start one for mini-goals each week. Smart idea :)
