Be flexible!
I did most tasks on different days than I planned. Although Tweak It encourages you to schedule tasks and stick to them, it doesn’t matter when you do anything. But if you skip a task, be aware of why you’re skipping. Will you do it another day or time? Will you reschedule it for next week? Is it not a priority?
Sometimes scheduling a task for a day and time nudges you to complete it exactly then. But if plans and priorities change, don’t get discouraged. Guilt is a terrible motivator. And if you’re not compelled to complete a task, it could be because it’s not important to you.
This week: Monday – post tweaks, write, read book; Tuesday – write before work, draft pitch; Wednesday – write, update website, post; Thursday – write; Friday – write before work; Saturday – post.
Daily Practices:
- If I go on Facebook or Twitter, set the timer for 10 minutes. After 10 minutes, get off.
- Write every day.
- Check calendar every morning (I forgot to do this most of last week).
