Daily habits

 

At the beginning of the month when I joined the Ultimate Blog Challenge I didn’t quite know how I would manage to blog on this blog each and every day.

 

After all, I have been blogging 12 times a month for ages and sometimes I can’t even think what to write about.

 

But a strange thing has happened:

 

I’m finding it easier to blog daily than three times a week.

 

Isn’t that strange?

 

I thought about it and I think it’s probably because (1) I’m creating a new habit and (2), because I know I’m blogging daily, I notice my environment more. I now have my “blogging hat” on so I see opportunities to write about things all the time.

I suppose it’s the focus ofย  having a daily habit that is setting me up for success.

 

Thinking about the blogging reminded me of a post I read on Gretchen Rubin’s blog the other day.

 

She wrote about dieting and how people are either moderators or abstainers.

 

Reading Gretchen’s post, I’m clearly a moderator. If you read it, let me know which one you are.

 

But back to the daily habits.

 

Do you have any successful routines that you’ve cultivated simply through making a daily habit of it?

Two things I do daily are read for at least 30 minutes and I also write daily (I don’t always publish my posts though :))

 

PS Feel free to leave any questions you’d like me to answer in the comments. They don’t only have to be about organising.

What are your organising goals for April?

 

So, it’s 1 April but this is not an April Fool’s joke ๐Ÿ™‚
I want to know what your organising and time goals are for the month.

 

I’ll go first. Mine are

1) enjoy a lovely holiday – we’re going away for 4 days this month – so quite a bit of packing to do


2) get this blog redesigned – it’s about time, isn’t it?
3) declutter and organise the kids’ clothes as we go into the colder weather
4) get chest of drawers and other dresser painted (I’m going olive green for the one and turquoise for the other)

 

Last month I didn’t get the filing done but I did declutter their toys.

Sometimes you just have to ask youself, “what’s driving me more crazy right this minute?” ๐Ÿ™‚

 

So, what are your organising goals this month?

 

PS I’m also going to blog every day this month. So I need some ideas – what questions would you like me to answer? Ask in the comments and I’ll pepper my answers throughout the month. And don’t forget to send me your inspiring space, or the link if you see some gorgeous spaces while you’re blog-hopping.
