I'm Done
Hello everyone!
Morning Routine
I started my day at 4:30 this morning. I got up, brushed my teeth and sat down at my desk to start the morning off. First thing on the list, make the to do list for today. Next thing was to spend the next 20 or so minutes working through my emails. I did not succeed, but I tried and that's what mattered.
At 5:00 I went to Canva to pull my pictures for today's Pinterest and Instagram posts. Pinterest was easy, Instagram not so much as I did not have a list of hashtags ready to go.
I finally finished all of it, including editing one of the photos since it had shifted slightly, by 5:30. This means I had 15 minutes to do as I pleased before I got dressed for my day job.
By 6 I was upstairs having breakfast which consisted of 2 mandarin oranges, and a bowl of chocolate peanut butter oatmeal with dried fruit and nuts on top.
I was done with that around 6:20 and from there I drove to my day job. I believe I got there around 6:45. This left me 15 minutes to put my food away, fill my bottle up with water, clock in, and be at my station by 7.
Where I am promptly relieved for a 15-minute breakfast break that I use to go to the bathroom, stretch, and walk around a bit.
At 7:15 I was back at my work computer and starting to feel not so inspired.
My List for the Day
My to do list for WA consisted of 8 things, 2 of which I had already checked off. They were:
- Post blog
- Do after post checklist (Meta Title, Description, fetch for Google, post to social media, and ask for comments)
- Finish/start lesson
- Post to Instagram (Already done)
- Post to Pinterest (Already done)
- Write notes for 2-3 reviews
- Pick out the next 3 keywords/stories for my blog
- Work on Canva for weekend inspirational posts
I decided to start with Canva. Having something visual might perk me back up, and it did.
Throughout the day, taking breaks as needed, I worked through every single thing on my to do list. I finally finished everything on my list at 6:13 this evening.
What took me so long?
Along the way I had lunch, had people constantly interrupt me, and even got into a fight with a coworker, but I finished my entire list. This has not happened in a while so I thought I'd celebrate by posting here.
Well, writing notes for reviews takes some time. This time it was especially difficult since both landing sites that I was working off of were videos. I could have read what was being said faster than they could say it.
Mostly because they decided to repeat everything that was said. It was very annoying. I did get some good visuals to pull details from and point out discrepancies.
So, that's what I accomplished today. What did you get done? Share below!
Wishing you success and happiness on your journey.
Take care,
Michelle/Anne

i have found that creativity is at its highest early in the morning. Add that to having less distractions, I have found it’s the most productive time for me to work on my site. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you for sharing. I find my creativity comes and goes throughout the day, depending on how much sleep I've gotten, but I find my most productive part of the day is in the morning hours.

Wow that sounds like a full day! Well done for accomplishing so much. I’m going to take a page out of your book and aim to get more done.

Thank you. Yes I need to work on that. I have a planner but still don’t get to look over it everyday. I’m working on that each day.
Have a productive and enjoyable day as well!
Congratulations on getting through that list. I did get through about half of everything you listed here.
I must use canva more often so that I get faster at it. I'm still learning so it's a long and painstaking event to get a picture quite right.
Have a great weekend!
Hello, Dianne. Thank you so much for sharing. I'm very creative so I find using Canva is easy. I also followed this training in case you want to know more or hadn't stumbled upon Lynne Huy yet.

Tomorrow I have to go to my day job, but it is very quiet on the weekends so I will be able to get so much done.

I finally got my Ninja Gaiden Sigma guide done and posted on my website, despite the interruptions that I have been forced to deal with. I feel accomplished as well.
