Pursuing a PhD: Reclaiming Home Plans During Break Week 14

Proactive versus Reactive
Listen to how I map out someone going from a completely reactive life to a proactive one.
Since I don’t have a lot of margin in my life right now, there are things I used to do regularly that I’m unable to do. I now have a 2-week break from school, and I will share how I plan to continue my proactive living without the additional margin in my life.
At first, I thought I would take the additional time off from school and put it to working more, but SURPRISE, I have decided to take some extra time off from work to do more personal and family-related things. I want to have the flexibility to do whatever my energy is in, allowing myself the freedom to do all these things in whatever order and be even better prepared for my next school semester.
Here are some of the things I plan to take care of during my break:
- Reorganize the storage rooms
- Clean out the family room and toys
- Move into an outside living
- Personal organizing – closet, bathroom, purse, car, supplements, and personal care
- Stock the house for the next four months
- Deep cleaning
- Catching up on podcasts
- Listen to audiobooks
- Sunday Basket® deep dive
- Binder updates
- Photo printing
- Puzzles and TV watching with Greg
- Fun family outings
