I’ve talked with some people (shout out @Jess Lloyd and @Jen Bessire!) about what struggles they had organization-wise. It seemed like routines was a big theme, so I thought I’d share what I do: I bought a back pocket journal because I like physically writing Here’s my format: - Date - Time block - Balance - Review Date and time blocks are pretty self explanatory, so I’ll go into Balance and Review Balance lists three priorities for the day Review lets me rate my day on how present I was, if I was able to express myself, and how stable I was (mentally, emotionally, etc) I also date the following pages so I can journal a bit throughout my day. I find when I do that, I tend to have better days Here’s a pic. Hope this helps!

What are some things that you struggle with that you’d like to solve? For example, do you struggle with routines? Focus on tasks? Desk clutter? Just trying to get a sense of what’s stressing you all out

I’m writing this on a flight to Las Vegas for my uncles 70th birthday My mom and I started talking about the ECOSystem, and I decided to use an example in the plane to ex(plane) it I used the seatbelt buckle symbol as an example. This is what I came up with: 🟣 Soul: the intention is to keep passengers safe 🔵 Direction: the goal is to communicate to passengers to stay seated 🟢 Creative: the communication is expressed in a way that represents a seat buckle - (An alternative could be the explicit words “please keep seatbelt fastened”, so the symbol is a creative choice) 🟡 Performance: The person in charge of turning the symbol on and off likely has an indicator that the light is on 🟠 Conservation: There are likely a certain amount of wires that are used to power the lights and how much electricity the lights require to function, which are both resources needed 🔴 Operation: This is the electricity actually moving through the circuitry to the light. The actual function of the whole thing ⚪️ Observation: this is the role we’re playing in being aware of the system. The observer is also involved in the process This is just a fun exercise I like to do to understand the ECOSystem better. What are your thoughts? ⬇️

Hi all! I recently got some really good advice to start getting into automation (Zapier, Make, n8n, etc) to help small businesses to organized (shout out @Przemek Rochon) Up until I got that advice, I really had no idea how to deliver the logic/paradigm of the ECOSystem. But this feels like the direction I should go Just keeping you all updated Let me know if you’d like me to share what I’m learning Thanks! :)
