Take Care of Your Anchors and Move Forward

Nicer office (3)

What do you want to get done this weekend? Do you have any lingering projects hanging over your head or physical areas that really need some organizing or cleaning attention?

Unfinished work, professional or personal, weigh us down like anchors keeping us stuck and prevent us from moving forward. And sadly most of us have many of these in our lives; projects we never completed, tasks we never got around too, cluttered and messy spots that taunt us.

If you tackled just one of these unfinished “jobs” each weekend you would be amazed at how much lighter you feel and how much easier it is to have time and energy for the things you really want to do with your time.

  • How about clearing out that extra room
  • Cleaning out your car
  • Getting rid of those piles in your office
  • Writing that article you wanted to submit
  • Finishing that business proposal
  • Purge that closet, drawer, basement

Whatever your anchors, try crossing them off one at a time.

What am I going to do? I am going to finish up my book proposal so I can move forward with getting my book published. I am also going to prepare my desk supplies and portable “desk” so to speak so that I can readily move my work station to be able to work outside or off site as I often do during the summer season.

Here’s to a  happy and productive weekend for both of us!
