So my dear friend Rivka Caroline, author of From Frazzled to Focused, my favorite organizing and time management Guru, has done it again.
We all have a "to do list" and a calendar with all our appointments jotted down, but the Focus Finder is simply genius.
If you are anything like me, I find myself making a new to do list almost daily. Especially this time of year with all the holidays.
Well, Rivka came up with this brilliant idea to make the Focus Finder, how pretty is it?
Here is what it looks like opened:
At the top of the page is a list of 6 Focus subjects, so you can sit down and actually organize what needs to get done.
And underneath it has the days of the week, Sunday thru Friday, to plug in what needs to get done and when. It is not a calendar to mark your appointments down. It is a book to simply mark down what needs to get done.
Here is a close up of things I started writing down:
So you write down the different things you need to focus on, then get into detail in each one.
I started using it the second I got it last week to help me stay focused on all the things that needed to get done before Yom Kippur.
Example:
Focus #1: House for Yom Kippur-
wrote everything that needs to get done in the house before Yom Kippur
Focus #2: Menu Pre Fast
Focus #3: Menu Break Fast
on the next page-
Focus #4: Activities for Kids on Yom Kippur
etc.
Since I received it on Thursday, I did not need to plug in which days to do what, but I plan to use it for this weeks Sukkos planning. And forever on after that... I almost want to order a case of them to make sure I will never run out as I finish each one!
Just write down the different things you need to get done under their main Focus point, then plug in which days to do what.
No more overwhelming to do lists.
No more overwhelming Brain fog.
Rivka, you are my hero.
