There Are Two Types of People —Which One Are You?

 

I’ve heard it said that there are two types of people in the world—those who set goals and go after them, and those who just sit at home and let life pass them by.

And while there might be something to that, I don’t think it is quite that simple—especially for women!

Because the reality is that given all those tasks we have to do just to stay afloat—things like take care of our families and our homes, get dinner on the table, keep our finances in check, keep up at work, manage multiple schedules, stay on top of pick-ups and drop-offs and all those things we’ve committed to—finding the time to “go after it” can feel like a pipe dream.

In fact, so many women that I talk to, on a daily and weekly basis, feel like they are drowning, just barely keeping their heads above water. They say things like, “I’d love to do XYZ, but I just can’t. It’s impossible.”

But what if it wasn’t impossible?

What if there was a way to truly “go after it,” and still keep track of all those other things that had to be done too, to set and accomplish BIG goals without losing sight of the little things?

 

That’s exactly what the Living Well Planner® was designed to do.

You see, as a mom AND a small business owner, a person who cares about taking care of things at home AND about going after those big dreams, I couldn’t find a planner that would help me do both. When I really started looking, I realized that there were work planners and blog planners and goal planners, as well as home planners and budget planners and mom planners, but no WHOLE LIFE planners.

And I refused to accept the idea that caring about your home life AND achieving big goals and dreams are mutually exclusive.

Why can’t we, as women, do both?

And so, since I couldn’t find the planner that let me do both, I decided to create it instead! A planner that would help me organize my time, manage my finances, plan my meals, keep track of projects, and help me CRUSH my goals, all in one place.

Since 2015, it has done that for me, and thousands of other women too.

 

The Living Well Planner® provided me with the opportunity to actually make and keep my goals, for the first time EVER! With 4 kids, hubs, and a dog, life is crazy, but my planner is my little sanity-check each day. –Nichole Hall

 

 

I have wanted a bakery since I was 16 when I worked in one. I am 48 and by the end of 2018 I will have one! Do it Scared®! And the Crush It formula have given me enough courage to do it. I wouldn’t have made this decision without the Crushing It™ plan giving me courage to do so. –Darlene Mast

 

As a perfectionist, my biggest challenge tends to be allowing myself to make the planner messy. I’ve switched to the Living Well Planner®, and it REALLY helped me to hear Ruth in a video say: it’s supposed to be used and messy and dog-eared. Somehow, that made me feel free to make mistakes and give myself grace. 🙂 –Angie Doster

And it can definitely do the same for you.

 

 

It IS possible to crush your goals and create a life you love, even in the midst of a never-ending stream of responsibilities.

  • So true. Planners can make life so much easier to keep up on. I used to use a monthly calendar, but these planners are fantastic.

  • I agree. As a mom, squeezing time in for myself is always a challenge. Mainly Bc we’re military and my twins are active (but different sports). I’ve axyually started planning three weeks ago, on scheduling “me time.”

  • You can continue make of your planning how many stage you can easily cross with it and what are the more technical help you can get with it http://myspades.org . If you have this kind of the easy query and not sure where will be your answer about it then you have to look for the play spades free online.

  • Can’t wait to get mine! I’ve been told I’m a planner snob but I disagree, I just haven’t found the right one yet. Here’s to hoping this is my last planner tryout!
