Pursuing a PhD 14: Reclaiming My Home Plans During Break


Listen Later

Proactive versus Reactive

Listen in 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 be sharing 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 additional 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 outside living
  • Personal organizing - closet, bathroom, purse, car, supplements, and personal care
  • Stock the house for the next 4 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

I am in a season where I am running really fast and I love it! What season are you in and how are you planning for these areas of your life?
