Wow, can you believe its the end of week 3 of 2018? Is it me or is the year flying by already!? (ok, bad joke) I have to tell you I was all excited to bring in the new year and rock 2018! And I sure did for a few days and then wham, I got sick with a miserable cold that knocked all the energy out of me. I mean seriously I haven’t been so sick and tired for a looong time. So that meant that I had to rest, there was no working through it. I slept, ate soup and went through 2 packs of nyquil and my favorite Luden’s cherry cough drops, you know the ones that taste like candy.
Ok, this post wasn’t to make you feel sorry for me but to explain even the best-laid plans can have a speed bump. So yes, I had laid out all my plans for January by the week. I was to send a newsletter on a certain day and have my social posts go out strategically etc. But those didn’t happen as planned and I missed a few meetings and had to reschedule appointments. Did it cause some juggling, of course, and all was well. Sometimes life happens while we have other plans.
Now I am on the mend this week and catching up with items that fell off the list while I was busy being sick. In business, we know that there are many little things that matter. Setting up systems that make your workflow easily creates less stress in your daily tasks that sometimes no one would notice that you are MIA for a week. In fact, this will be the first hearing about this for my clients that did not have appointments with me last week to know that I was sick and out of the office.
And yes I have more systems that I coulda shoulda woulda put in place for those things I missed like my newsletter and social posts but I haven’t reached that point yet. Nor am I worried that you would have missed another Happy New Year newsletter. (Now wait when should we stop saying Happy New Year? Is it February? I mean really all the build-up to 2018 means that we celebrate it all through January, right?)
So happy to 2018 and here’s to creating systems that streamline your business + life on the daily.
