Years ago, I got really into the Getting Things Done method created by David Allen. As with anything designed for productivity, I have tweaked it over time to make it work the best for me and now use my own personal twist of it. I’ve used it with at this point, a dozen different paper, […]
How are you doing with those new habits that you are wishing would magically stick and become part of your routine? If you went about it properly, gold star for you, I’m sure you are on your way to making them part of your life. If you are giving me the side-eye and not wanting […]
Do you make resolutions? I go back and forth on this one. As soon as the word “resolution is used, I tend to set a ridiculous amount of vague goals that I shout out at random as they pop into my head. But I do like to take advantage of the power of a fresh […]
