How can I be more resourceful?

Question

Like great ideas for things that need to be done and accomplished.

Answer 1

EXERCISE your imagination ... read a book, let it run wild!

When you awaken each morning, WRITE down all the ideas you have .. no matter what ...

When you go through the day, write down what you need to do ... and start doing things for sure. For those that take a bit more time than others .. do it in small steps .. and you will see that things ARE Getting done .. and quickly!

SEE the beauty and creativity around you .. and cherish it. WATCH the wildlife, listen to birdsong, see the falling leaves and watch their path to the ground .. all these are ways to be more creative in finding the solutions to what you need to do.

I have a LIST .. large efforts (multiple steps), small efforts (everyday accomplishments), and check them off as I do them. You would NOT believe how full my day is of activity .. and that is for sure. Even us RETIREES have PLENTY to do in a day .. and not enough hours to do them in!

Answer 2

Before I get out of bed every morning, I lay in bed and think of things that HAVE to be done that day. I picture in my mind which task I need to tackle first, second, third...... then as soon as I am up and about, after my first cup of coffee I start on my list and I have a time line to get done. One day it could be noon, another day three p.m........ And I do not stop until that time line. When that time comes I stop. Even if I am not finished. Knowing that where I left off is where I start the next day. If you work out side the home, you can picture in your mind what you have to do when you get home, first, second, third....... and then as soon as you get home start on them before you sit down and relax. But set a dead line time so that you are not working clear up to bed time. Every one needs time to relax before bed. Or you can make a list of things to be done on your day off and keep to the list on that day.
