One of the most nagging things of adulthood and mommy hood are the tasks that you don't complete or don't get started on. My last post was about time. One of my tips for getting things done is to make a decision. Now that you know that decision making gives you momentum to get more done, I would like you to implement the idea of a POWER HOUR! I wish I could take credit for it, but credit should be given where credit is due. Gretchen Rubin (whom you know from my previous blogs) has a great podcast and shared this idea on the podcast and in her blog.

It's so simple and so effective.

Make a date with yourself once a week.

No distractions.

Plan ahead and make your to do list.

Spend ONE hour getting things done as fast as you can.

Here are some things on my POWER HOUR list:

Hang pictures in master bathroom

Hang pictures in daughter bathroom

Put contact paper in two kitchen drawers

Put contact paper on shelf under sink

Take food out of fridge and wipe down shelves

Clean out T-shirt drawer (put items in donation bag and put in back of my car)

Oh boy, it just feels great planning for that POWER HOUR! You will have enormous satisfaction doing a POWER HOUR! I guarantee that you will look forward to your next power hour that you plan!
