  • 186 | How to Reduce Procrastination with a Trigger Task

     Do you ever find yourself building a nice routine, but then you never seem to have the motivation to actually complete it? When we build routines, it’s important to keep them simple and concise so they aren’t overwhelming, but there is also one thing you should be aware of. Your trigger task. Using a trigger task is like hacking your mind to reduce procrastination and actually get things done.

    So let’s talk about it!

  • 185 | 4 Reasons You Need a Budget Routine

    Have you thought about a budget routine and wondered whether it would be helpful or more stressful?

    In our first years of marriage, my husband and I had been introduced to budgeting and had several people in our lives following Dave Ramsey’s 7 Baby Steps program to get out of debt. I always rejected the idea thinking that we didn’t have enough money to budget, it would be too restrictive, and it would cause more stress trying to keep it organized. And my husband felt the same way. We avoided it until our finances had become so stressful that my husband came to me one day, after years and years of struggling, and said, “I think we need to try it.” And for some reason, all my worries went away and I agreed to try.

    We started budgeting in March 2018, very much in debt, but ready to dig ourselves out and try to grab hold of that financial freedom we were hearing about. We have learned a lot in the last seven years of budgeting and I want to share four reasons why I would recommend that everyone has a budget routine.

    Let's get to it!

  • 180 | Key Habit Shifts to Keep a Tidy Home

    If you find that you clean your home and it immediately starts getting messy afterwards, you’re going to feel like it’s an endless divide of clean versus messy with no in-between. You will feel like you either need to be constantly cleaning in order for your home to feel presentable or you must simply accept living in a pigsty. But it doesn’t have to be one or the other. We can actually create small intentional habits (that also take minimal time) to keep our homes tidy throughout the day without too much effort. It doesn’t take much effort, but it does take intentionality. 

    Today I want to share a few key habit shifts to focus on to keep a tidy home without feeling like you have to choose between constant cleaning or living in a mess.

  • 179 | 21 List Ideas to Organize Your Mind Using Google Keep

    Do you know the feeling of multiple thoughts rushing into your head at random times and thinking, “I need to remember that later”? Then we get busy and forget all about it until something triggers our memory, but then we can’t remember what we were supposed to remember!

    Our brains can only hold onto so much information and the more we try to keep everything in our minds, the more decision fatigue and overwhelm we start to feel just trying to manage it all in our heads. In order to prevent this from happening, I love using Google Keep as a tool to keep me organized as those thoughts pop up! Today I want to share 20 list ideas to keep in Google Keep to keep you organized, too!

  • 177 | Simplify Your Grocery List + How to Stop Wasting Time Rewriting the Same Grocery List Over and Over

    Do you find that every time you sit down to write your grocery list, you are repeating the work over and over? Sure, some of the items might be different, but most of your list contains the same items that were on the list last week.

    One of the ways we can get time back in our days is to recognize when we are repeating steps and simplifying the process so we can streamline our time. A simple way to make your meal planning routine easier is to use a free tool called Google Keep to organize your grocery shopping. Let me walk you through how I use it and maybe it can help you save time, too!
