Good Morning 8.09.2007

During this 30 Day Paper and File Makeover you will learn a new way to tackle the paper piles once and for all. The one unique rule of my approach is that during this class, you are not allowed to purchase any manila folders, hanging files, cute tabs, filing cabinets, paper sorters, or other paper-storing materials. We aren't going to buy a system and try to make your papers "fit into the system." Instead, we are going to discover your unique Paper Personality, and then create the system to support it.

Starts August 13

Many of us long to find a more centered and balanced self that is consistently optimistic, upbeat and effective. This 5 week class will teach you 5 principles to develop that positive and centered self. Each week you will work with one principle and learn exercises for integrating it into your life.

Starts August 20

Does thinking about paying bills or "finally saving up enough" for a desired purchase fill you with stress and anxiety? Are you tired of looking at the interest charged on your monthly credit card statements?

"The key is not to prioritize what's on your schedule, but to schedule your priorities." Stephen Covey

Good morning! Thanks for sending in this quote, Hope, which is a wonderful reminder to us all. Hope also shared, "I always include at least 2 short-term-to-dos from my Top 3 snapshot categories I'm concentrating on at the moment. And I have found that my life focus is changing fairly frequently at this time, so I revisit my snapshot every 3 months or so and tweak it... Doing this allows me to really 'see' from the outside what's going on in and around me and then I can set my focus accordingly." (For those of you not familiar with the Snapshot, it is tool we use in the Change Your Life Challenge program to evaluate our priorities and track our progress.)

When we simply prioritize what is already on our schedule, our heart-felt priorities remain in limbo and at the mercy of time. When we learn to schedule our priorities, then we are on the path to the life we desire.

Your Turn:
When you look at your schedule today, have you made time for the priorities in your life? If you want to see the most change in spiritual time, have you included spiritual reflection in your day? If your goal is to spend more time with your family, have you scheduled one-on-one time with a family member? If not, use today's quote as a reminder to make an adjustment to your schedule.

Your Affirmation:
Each day, I schedule my priorities first.

Challenge Life!
