I don’t know about you, but I constantly feel like I have a never-ending list of “To Do’s” and I’m trying to multitask by doing several different things at once. At work, I’m managing different projects, tasks, meetings, and oh I have day-to-day stuff that has to be done every single day. Then when I get home, I have to cook, clean, run errands, etc, etc. Then I have this little hobby of mine called RD’s Obsessions, where I answer emails, handle social media, work on blog posts, and manage all the back end stuff that goes on when running a blog. I am also active with non-profit organizations and the list goes on.
On top of all of that, I still have chemo brain. Honestly, I’m already exhausted explaining all of this to you haha. But I know I’m not alone. We live in a world where there is not enough time in a day to get everything we need and want to get done.

One thing I know that has helped me stay on task and prevented me from being overwhelmed is staying organized. Being organized has helped me prioritize and manage my time wisely. If you constantly feel like you are running around with your head spinning, being organized will help you feel accomplished, prevent you from feeling overwhelmed, and also helps you get shit done!

Hi Rach,
I think that being realistic and getting a planner is the best. Since I had Chloe-Sofia, I find it hard to remain organized since you never know what will happen once you have a baby. 🙂

I can't live without my EC planner. It literally goes everywhere with me. I kind of wish she would come out with personal sized ones.

I used to write everything in my planner during school. Now that I graduated, I sort of stopped. But I definitely need to go back to it! it was so helpful
