WRAPPING UP CHRISTMAS
Schedule time to wrap gifts, address cards etc. Don’t leave things until the last minute. Wrapping a gift in November will probably mean two people are surprised when it’s opened in December. If you don’t like those kind of surprises, stick a note on the outside of the package so you’ll know what’s inside.
HIGH TECH CHRISTMAS
Take advantage of technology. Put your Christmas card list on a database and run off labels. Consider designing your own cards.
KEEP RECORDS
Keep a section of your idea journal, ruled with appropriate columns, where you can jot down what you receive from others. It can be embarrassing having to thank people for their “beautiful gift” when you have no idea what it was that you received, if anything.
CHRISTMAS FOLLOW-UP FILE
Make a follow-up file where you can put things such as articles or Christmas ideas that you can review a few months before next Christmas.
TIMELY QUOTE
"Besides the noble art of getting things done, there is the noble art of leaving things undone. The wisdom of life consists in the elimination of non-essentials." - Lin Yu Tang
Study Time
Use your prime time when you’re at your mental and physical peak. This is usually early in the morning and again early in the evening.
