• Set your goals by week/day, month, by 6 months… Make your goals attainable.
• Plan your meals a week in advance. Make a shopping list of items before you go to the store. This will help create a budget you can stick to, and it makes you a more efficient shopper.
• Update To-Do lists every day. Priorities change, new items get added…
• Inspirational quotes to keep you moving forward.
• Plan out some of your blog posts. Brainstorm ideas and supporting details for the next month. (Many bloggers write several posts at once, and space them out in posts over a month or more.)
• Keep track of the important people in your life. Update addresses.
