Hello, hello! A few months ago I decided to push university aside for the semester and focus on expanding my business: I am currently taking excellent courses on small business (focusing on marketing and law) and also running my photography business. Somehow, days slip by far too easily and blogging, even when I crave sitting down with a steaming cup of peppermint tea and pouring my thoughts out in a blog post, gets pushed to the bottom of my to-do list (but I'm absolutely, 100% determined to improve and prioritise!). In what ways have you struggled making time for things which should be a priority but somehow slip to the bottom of your to-do list?
On another note, recently I had the joy and privilege to be featured on Our Creative Life, a website featuring creative artists from around the world. I'm very excited to share with you all my post on being productive + seven tips to enhance your productivity... here's a sneak peek:
"If not now, when? If not here, where? Push yourself harder, further deeper into your work and passion. Seemingly mundane, insignificant acts lead to significant results. Wake up early to do devotions over scrolling through Facebook for twenty minutes, work on an art project or walk outside instead of watching TV, read an inspirational book over texting friends. As hard as it can be to build momentum and routine in your creative passion or hobbies, it is essential. Like pushing and jumping onto a merry-go-round, beginning is the hardest part of any endeavor, but once momentum is built, no one can stop you: You’re flying." ... continued. Read my seven hints and tips here and I'd love to know you thoughts and ideas on what improves productivity. :)
Have a lovely rest of your week and I'll be back (very) soon!

Ohh thank youuu! :) It's not quite a book (hint hint has to do with a magazine ;) but nonetheless I am soo excited to share soon! xxx
DeleteI think the reason blogging gets bumped down on my to-do list is because there are really no concrete consequences when I don't blog, as much as I may want to. School has deadlines, I have to show up at work, my family has things they need from me, and as much as I love blogging it's easy to push it aside and instead do more immediately pressing activities.
ReplyDeleteSo, incredibly true; thank for sharing your thoughts! <3
