C and I were able to get into the Focus course at work at the last minute. This course teaches you not only how to put together the Franklin Covey planner they give you but how to use it. A lot of the tips relate to 7 Habit which I took when I went through LDP (Leadership Development Program) a work.
In addition to the kit and binder, we received a Franklin Covey planner and coupon to trade the kit and/or the binder at the Franklin Covey store. I kept my pages and bought an orange binder…yummy!
For the class we filled in our values and also worked on setting goals. I set a goal to open an etsy shop of Blythe dresses by November 1st. This goes with my value of Creativity. I haven’t sold anything I’ve made since wow Jr. High maybe so I am a bit nervous. But this is one of those things that I’ve talked about for years and never done. I am trying to change that about myself. It may not fix the situation I am in this year but it can go towards fixing me. And I’m starting to like me so I think fixing would be nice.
My new role at work (stepping down as a manager and going back to being a team lead in the technical area I have a lot of experience/skill in…long drama-filled story) is changing soon so I look forward to using my new planner and skills to organize a bit better. I have a planner now but it is mostly just meetings and lists and notes with no priorities so I just try and do everything…ugh. I need to live in quadrant 2!!!
