Planning Your Day 

Nothing was more frustrating to me than a busy day when the only thing I accomplished was adding more tasks to my mental to-do list.

Though the day has ended my body fails to relax because the stress of the seemingly impossible work loads. Have you ever felt that your day controls your schedule? Do the problems throughout the day continually take precedent over what you previously had planned? This is how my day went until one afternoon I realized that if the President of the United States has enough time in his day to run arguably the most powerful nation in the world, then I, nation of one, have enough time to handle my personal workload. But, I knew that I had to be missing something because I could not handle my workload. So I began to read and study how successful people plan their day and when I did I realized that I was thinking about my day, not planning it. Using their principles I have adopted my own method that has helped lift a huge weight off of my chest.   

Here are 8 points to assist you in planning your day. 

1.      Plan Tomorrow Today. Research has shown that when you plan out your day before you go to sleep your subconscious mind goes to work devising ways to fulfill the plan that you created. 

2.      Write Down Set Appointment and Activities. Include realistic time frames of these activities including travel time. A mental list is not a list. Take the time to write out your list.
