The 12 Week Year: Brian P Morgan & Michael Lennington

The 12 Week Year: A Book Review

Instead, The 12 Week Year avoids the pitfalls and low productivity of annualized thinking. This book redefines your “year” to be 12 weeks long. In 12 weeks, there just isn’t enough time to get complacent, and urgency increases and intensifies. The 12 Week Year creates focus and clarity on what matters most and a sense of urgency to do it now. In the end more of the important stuff gets done and the impact on results is profound.

• Explains how to leverage the power of a 12 week year to drive improved results in any area of your life

Turn your organization’s idea of a year on its head, and speed your journey to success.

Eat That Frog by Brian Tracy

Eat That Frog; A Book Review

Eat that Frog is far one of my favorite books for time management. My book has so many highlights, notes and ideas written in the pages that I could probably write a whole new book of my own with added info (not that I would because I am not a writer), but the ideas generated from this book were phenomenal!!

If you are looking for some ideas on how to be better at managing your time because you are a procrastinator or you aren’t sure where to start with getting yourself more organized this is definitely a book that you will want to grab because it is all inclusive, and with 21 ways to do it, it is like action waiting to happen for you and your to do list!

Color Coding Favorites

Do you like to add pops of color in your planner? Do you appreciate knowing what you are doing, as well as what others in your family might be doing? Or maybe even tracking extra-curricular activities that you or your family might be participating in? The color coding could and should be your jam!! Let’s talk about what it is, how it can help you with your planning and what purpose it serves to rock your planning lifestyle.

Home and Office Timer

The Purpose of a Timer in your Planning

I love using a timer. It helps me to take some of the overwhelm out because I can focus better. I can curb frustration because I know at the end of the day I have done all I can do. And it helps me fight distraction because for those 30 minutes it is me and my work.

My Favorite Planning Pens

My current favorite writing pen is the S-Gel Sharpie Pen. I love the easy in which it glides across the paper. There truly isn’t any smear and with the paper quality that I love to use there is no bleed either. I love that it comes in multiple colors, but of course my personal favorite at the moment is the black ink.
