| For those of you who think you're too busy... | |||||||||||||||||||||||
| Dear Too Busy, I understand your dilemma. I think we're all too busy. Especially when you have a demanding job and a family, sometimes you begin to forget about yourself. But here are some ideas that I think might help you. You find time for you husband, and child right? Well, that means that there is time for you too. The first thing you need to do is buy a planner, specifically for you, NOT FOR WORK, and seperate from the one you may have at work. Every Monday morning give yourself 15 minutes at your desk and make a list of all the things you need to do for that week. Then place all those jobs into specific days and times in that week. Consider these things as MEETINGS with other business professionals. You wouldn't miss a meeting with a client would you? So every evening after work, take a look at your list of things for that evening and check them off as you get them done. It'll give you a sense of accomplishment, and you will start making time for these things. Good luck! Ms. Organized |

| Dear Ms. Organized, I just can't find time to do anything. I am a working mother. I have a highly demanding job, a beautiful 2 year old daughter, and a supportive husband. All of that is great but I never have time for myself amd nothing ever seems to get done. To top it all offI've even begun to forget personal appointments - going to the hairdresser etc. Any ideas? Sincerely, Too Busy Washington, DC |
