Ahhhhh!!!  We could all use a little more margin, am I right?

Welcome to Everyday Happiness where we create lasting happiness, in 2 minutes a day,  through my signature method of Intentional Margins® (creating harmony between your to-dos and your priorities), happiness science, and musings about life. 

I'm your host Katie Jefcoat and the last 2 years have given me an opportunity to reflect on what matters, where the kids are in the age and stage of life and how we show up.  

Saying no to almost everything was also a time to reflect on what I, personally, want to return to as 2022 is looking more and more open during the current global pandemic.  

I’m a master at creating margin in my life.  I mean, I created the concept Intentional Margins® as a way to show others how using the margins of your day, of your life, have the biggest impact on your fulfilment.  And aren’t we all trying to live a fulfilled life? That’s such a loaded question.  It’s easy to say, of course, but it’s hard to actually do it.  Especially without a plan, a guide, a way to see clearly what we should be saying yes to and what we need to say no to.  

Intentional Margins® has become a movement, where people get to identify what matters most to them, what lights their hair on fire, what is a priority and then, be intentional about fitting that into their day, their week, their year.  

For example, if spending quality time with my partner is a priority and the way we decide to do that is a weekend away, we need to get that on the calendar.  Maybe it’s date night, that also needs to go on the calendar.  It’s where we get to enjoy the best parts of life, because we all know the todo list will be there and if you are like me, it’s easy to try to fit in one more thing.  Especially if we don’t have real protected time on the calendar, like date night.  

Of course, this could be anything from knitting to calling a friend.  It’s whatever you need, in this season of life. 

So in 2022, I invite you to identify your margin and what you want to do with that margin, what are your highest priorities in this season, and explore how that will make you feel.  It’s a super exciting time.  

And, of course, if you are open to it, I’d love to hear how you are creating Intentional Margins®, so post on social and tag us or send us a DM.
