The next time you find yourself making a To-Do List, I want you to go to the bottom of the page and make a Not-To-Do List, too!
The Not-To-Do List is for all those things that prevent you from doing the things on your actual list. Things like:
Mindlessly scrolling.
Succumbing to self-doubt.
Being negative.
Breaking promises to yourself.
I recommend coming up with at least three things you want to NOT do, each time you make a list. Having them in the same spot as the things you need to accomplish will help you keep them in mind throughout the day. Give it a try and let me know how it goes.
ASK ME ANYTHING 🎤
At the beginning of the year I fired my podcast back up after a hiatus and have had a lot of fun interviewing some of my favorite experts over the past six months! You can find the show on Substack, Spotify, or iTunes.
As we enter the midway point of the year, I’ve marked this month off for a solo episode to answer some of your questions So it’s time to play a good ol’ fashioned round of “Ask Me Anything” 💁🏻♀️
Got something you’ve been wanting to ask? Personal, professional — whatever you’re curious about! Pop it into this Google Form and I’ll get back to you in the next episode:
📚 READ: Looking for a good book to read? Behold this list of the 100 most popular book club selections from Goodreads! Which really doubles as a nice roundup of books that would be good for your summer holiday or weekend at the lake. I’ve read most of them — with some favorites being 1, 11, 14, 36 and 64. See the full list here.
📺 WATCH: Netflix is back with yet another cult documentary with Dancing for the Devil — which focuses on a California-based “church” that recruited young dancers off TikTok and offered them “career management”. I haven’t watched it yet but have heard it’s quite the ride! You can watch the trailer here.
Ready to master digital organization?! My next group program is opening soon! Join the launch list to learn more about it + stay in the loop.
🎧 LISTEN: I love lyric-free instrumental music when I’m working, and recently came across this YouTube Channel that just creates lo-fi playlists that have relaxing background images that looks nice on your TV. Have been listening to this Early Spring Sunlight one a lot lately. Listen to it here.
🧡 ENJOY: Are you team pineapple? I happily put it on pizza or any other savory dish, and this 20-Minute Pineapple Chicken Stirfry is so easy but delicious! It has a great combo of flavors between the chicken, pineapple, cashews, cilantro, and ginger. Get the recipe here.
