Getting ready to send out the Take15 Starter Packs for the next Take15, starting on 30th October. Preparing the packs to send out is always exciting, as I get to share Take15 with another group of people. Yay!

My last few days have been crazy busy!

I've been preparing for two Take15 workshops, searching for venues for a client's planning day, sessions with my business coaching clients, and handling my daily tasks. My mind's been like a browser with 100 tabs open! πŸ˜… It's been non-stop.

And yet ... these last few days, Take15 has been a lifesaver. I can't imagine feeling as calm as I do without it. Take15 has been a blessing.

Here's my morning process with Take15.
Every morning before I start work, I do my 15-minute Take15 practice (see below what a typical day has looked like recently). Yes, all of that is in my head at one time!

After completing Steps 2 and 3, I do a massive brain dump, a mind map of everything that's screaming in my head that needs attention. Everything goes on paper - work stuff, emails, personal errands, even what's for dinner (because, let's be honest, ignoring the 'life stuff' only comes back to bite you later! πŸ™„)

Then I do something that totally changes the game for me: I look at my actual available time for the day. Meetings? Travel time? That all gets subtracted first.

What's left is my REAL working time.
From there, I pick what needs to happen on that day and decide what can wait. In other words, I force myself to choose. Every day, I select my tasks based on what I can do in my available time, rather than what I pretend I can do.

No more impossible to-do lists!
The relief of sitting down, ready to work through my action steps, is so satisfying. It's not about trying to squeeze in everything under the sun - it's about being realistic and actually getting stuff done. I'm not working with a to-do list of tasks I know I'll never get to. This is different. I've chosen what I can do within the time I have available, and I know I will do it. It's magic. ✨

That's how I approach my daily tasks and it's been life-changing. I want you to experience this, too. When you stop overwhelming yourself with endless to-dos and start working with a system that actually fits your life, everything shifts. It's not just about getting more done – it's about feeling in control and ending each day knowing you've made real progress.

Don't miss out on the next Take15.

I know that life can sometimes get in the way of maintaining good habits, even those as valuable as Take15.

Our days are full of distractions: phones constantly beeping, emails piling up, and social media that never ends. It's enough to make anyone feel crazy!

I don't use Take15 every single day. But I know how much it can help me get things done. For example, yesterday, my head was swimming with everything I needed to do. I paused, did Take15, and it was like someone had turned on a light in my brain. I tackled my tasks, felt more in control and got heaps done.

The relief was real (it always is), and it's even given me a head start to today's work.

Last Chance for 2024

Take15 is not about forcing you to find more hours in your day or making your life harder. It doesn't conform to the idea of hustle culture. It's not about working 24/7.

It's about working effectively within your 'available time'β€”whether that's an hour a day because you are breastfeeding a baby or have meetings back-to-back and only have three hours.

My question is always, how can you use that time effectively? Would you rather spend three focused hours on a project or waste twice as much time with little to show?

The objective of Take15 is to help you use your time effectively.

If you leave your office at the end of the day, excited to return the next because you've used your time effectively, you know the Take15 method has achieved its purpose.

Not Everything Needs Your Immediate Attention

Did you know? Every time you are interrupted, it takes 23 minutes to get back on track if the interruption isn't related to what you're working on.

It's not just about lost time - it's lost money too! Let's break it down:
3 distractions a day = 69 minutes lost
At $100/hour, that's over $500 wasted per week!

That seems extraordinary, but think about it - how many times a day are you distracted? Is it more than three?

This is where Take15 really shines. It helps you quickly refocus after interruptions, reduces downtime between tasks, and gets you back on track faster. The result? Less time wasted, more work done, and more money in your pocket!

Next time something threatens to derail your focus, ask yourself:
Is this genuinely urgent?
Is it a top priority?
Can it wait until later?

Don't let distractions control your day. With Take15, you'll master the art of staying focused on what really matters.

Mind mapping is the best thing ever!!

Feeling stuck or stressed? Try mind mapping! It's my go-to trick when my brain feels scrambled, my to-do list is exploding, or I need fresh ideas.

Here's what I do: I grab some markers or coloured pens and a blank sheet of paper. Then, I find a quiet spot and start drawing what's on my mind. I put my main idea in the middle and branch out from there.

It's like making a picture of what's in your head. And it's amazing!

In minutes, I go from feeling totally lost to having things figured out. It's like hitting the reset button on my brain!

Mind mapping helps me see the big picture, develop new ideas, and sort out my jumbled thoughts. It's simple and powerful. Who knew doodling could be so useful?

Do you mind map?

One of the challenges when working from home is that your entire day can become a workday without realising it.

The act of leaving home and travelling to the office does separate your work and home time. When working from home, this delineation isn't possible. Your day can get out of hand, especially when all you see is mountains of housework and things which need fixing calling out to you.

When I sold my business, friends suggested how amazing it must be to have all this time to myself, but I didn't feel great. Instead, I felt overwhelmed and anxious. I went from a heavily structured day to nothing.

Without a daily routine, I felt like I was drowning.

It wasn't until I added a little structure to my day that I started to feel better. This was as simple as getting up and going to bed at the same time, meditating, shopping once a week, and having scheduled appointments each week.

If this sounds familiar, consider setting boundaries around your start and finish times. At the end of the day, put away your computer, close your office door, and avoid answering calls from your clients.

It may not feel like a lot, but it may be enough to make you feel more in control and just a little bit happier. I know it made all the difference to me.
