sleep.

July 14, 2010
I seriously ponder why I continue to pay the hosting fee for this site because I am never here, or rarely ever here.

How do some people do it? Seriously. I am exhausted. I envy the single working mothers, who keep a clean house, bounce children from baseball to gymnastics, and still look like a million bucks at the end of the day.

I still cannot get used to working full-time. It has been a month. I push snooze more than once then get up but come right back to lay down for a stinking 5-8 minutes, stumble throughout the morning with something containing caffeinated in hand, and I barely have enough energy to cook at the end of the day. Lucky Armani!

How can I change this?

I completed the Phase I Toolbox of the Make Today Matter program and I confess without doing so I would be an even bigger mess. It was a fun journey. I truly feel as if I live a more balanced and organized life then I did before I started the program.

The more I think about it the more I think I am one of those people who really likes to sleep. I lack energy this is true. I am going to begin working on zapping some energy into my veins.

The first step I have taken to do so is signing up for a mini in Phase II of MTM

Life is Good

May 27, 2010

Wow! I can honestly say things are falling into place.  I feel energized and excited for the future.  I completed Step 8 of the Make Today Matter program. The step focuses on starting your morning off right which pretty much means in a positive seize the day manner.  Simple enough, right?  It’s almost too simple and often mornings are attached to feelings of blah and grumpiness without even ones knowledge.  Mornings set the scene and mood for what the rest of your day brings.

Repeat after me… “GOOD Morning!”

I plan on waking up every morning and writing “Good Morning” in my CAN (Catch All Notebook) which I will talk about in a future post because I have been cleaning for 3423432 hours and my eyes are growing heavy.  Then again I will probably not fall asleep until 3am because Armani is still in the hospital.

So ya… Life is GOOD. Real GOOD. I am not going to deny it.

I’m a mess. I am discombobulated.  My time management skills I acquired from being a kick-ass executive assistant went out the window when I lost my job. The depression and anxiety I deal with on a daily basis make it difficult for me to get out of bed in the morning.  My energy level is NULL.

I need to change. So, when I was offered an opportunity to begin the “Make Today Matter” program by Brook Noel I jumped on it.

I am currently working through the program’s Phase I which is often referred to the program’s “toolbox” consisting of the 30 basics ingredients of fulfilling a more balanced and organized life.

Thus far I am liking the program.  What do I like most about the program?  It’s interactive.  You openly interact with seasoned users and beginners of the program in open forums expressing your experiences and showing support with others in your group.

Let’s “cheers” to a more energized, organized, and balanced K in the near future.
