It can be if we plan…I remember this song from the Rolling Stones (more than a few years ago). The Rolling Stones say we can be free if we plan. As painful as planning can be, the results of not planning are much worse. 

In our crazy, busy lives we have little time to dawdle. We have tasks to be completed (family, work, and volunteer) and often feel overwhelmed. Try looking ahead to determine what’s due and when. Perhaps the items closest to being due are the most unappetizing and are the ones we push out. Those are the ones we need to complete first to help us move on to the ones we certainly enjoy as dessert! 

In the March 4^th Public Image Forum learn more about planning using a simple calendar and a more sophisticated workflow. Hopefully, these tools will provide you with more time for what you want to do in your downtime!
