Snapshot: Stick to the plan
1/15/18
Can we revisit the Passion Planner? It's a bit dramatic to use the word "passion" but I do love this planner. It is goal centered and you can write weekly and even daily focuses (foci?) to keep you on track. Like all goals, you have to stay motivated but getting to write on super, quality paper (sorry, trees) with different colored pens and markers pretty much does it for me.
When I was sitting down yesterday to look at the week, I wrote, "Fun day with the kids" as today's focus since there was no school and Wintergeddon might trap us indoors for the next few days.
There was so much to do around the house that I started working on things as soon as I woke up. To give Alex an answer to his never ending, "What can I do?" question, I started making a list of chores for him to complete in exchange for iPad time. When I got to the 8th thing on the list, I remembered..."Fun day with the kids".
I was working on the opposite of that.
We decided to go to the zoo for a a couple of hours to enjoy the warmer sunshine, the time off together, and the reminder that household chores can wait for one more day.
