Recap: August + September Tending Lists

I need to speak about what I do when a month doesn’t go as deliberate.

To start with, above you’ll be able to see my August TL (that I by no means posted as a result of “that photograph wasn’t ok to put up”) and my September TL. The rationale I share my previous Tending Checklist’s right here is with the intention to see my intentions for August and September. Sadly in August, I had an surprising hospital admission and restoration that lasted wayyyy longer than I anticipated. This threw a wrench into all of my plans. Usually, I personally don’t carry over unfinished targets, however, this previous month, I had so many targets altered and I felt that carry them over into September was the easiest way to assist me get again on monitor. I knew that I won’t have the ability to get all of that finished, however I knew my prime priorities and I targeted on being absolutely diligent, proper the place I used to be, in every job and aim. I acquired most of it finished, and gave grace for the remaining.

A fast reminder earlier than I share my quarter 4 targets with you…

There isn’t any unsuitable means to make use of your powersheets, however I do encourage you to be YOU on these pages (whether or not you utilize all of the stickers to repurpose the web page, use the web page as supposed, or go along with a simplified clean and white look – YOU DO YOU!)

Earlier than we get into my Tending Lists, I need to share a reminder as you open your Powersheets (Don’t know what Powersheets are? Begin Right here!)
