So I started a new, fancy job a couple of months ago.
Deciding to basically do just one job instead of three have given me mixed feelings.
I was happy to not be pulled four different ways everyday between jobs, twins, and no sleep...but the downside was I stl an trying to figure out to do with myself with only working one job!
So like I mentioned a couple posts ago that I wanted to focus more on organization.
What better time to start when I have only the one job. Yeah, it isn't any easier because that in itself requires organization. A wonderful circle.
But here are a few steps I have taken, hey it's a start.
First, I bought a key ring. You might say "what? How is that a step?" Well it makes it a little more difficult to misplace them when they are around your neck. Oh, and it has a card holder so no more carrying important cards in your pocket. Yes, I'm one of those weird people who don't carry wallets.
Second, I started hanging up my work suit so I can actually find it in the morning ,when I'm rushing around a few minutes from being late to work.
You might think, " What crazy person throws their work clothes around?!".
A disorganized one who thinks it's easier and more readily available draped over the couch or a chair.
The crazy notions we procrastinators make up to cut corners.
When in reality it makes for a more difficult environment.
In short, Hang up the suit, folks.
Thirdly, getting the kids clothes ready the night before. If you are anything like me, you will hit the snooze button at least twice before stumbling out of bed rushing and berating yourself for sleeping those extra ten minutes.
That is a dance I do everyday.
So if you are already stumbling around with your eyes half shut and no time to spare, how are you going to match cute little outfits for the kids?
Not that my color matching skills are great as it is, but half asleep and rushing??!! No, it doesn't turn out well.
Besides it gives me a sense of accomplishment, even if it is a small thing to prepare the clothes the night before.
So there, I technically have more time on my hands even if it doesn't feel that way.
Time management and organization control your time.
It's like playing Tetris with time.
So a note to self: no excuses, and organize more!
"Let's make history, people"
