Hooray! I have been blocked, but after class this weekend, I think I know the problem. I don’t have a plan! Dr. Apte, my Ayurvedic doctor and teacher, says that actual work doesn’t take that much time, it’s the planning of the work that takes time. aHAH!

Think about it. Making dinner is easier if you already have the ingredients and know what you are going to make, right? So why not make a plan on Sunday and create a grocery list of things you will need for the week. Ta-da! So easy. NOT to mention, it is economical. We often go out to lunch not because it’s extra tasty, but because we don’t have anything ready to grab from home.

Also, what about packing your gym bag at night so you don’t forget your socks (or worse, shoes!) the next day. Plan out your vacation – I started saving a certain amount per week now so that I have money for India next December.

I have also committed to writing 4 posts a week (holy crud I actually wrote that down. That means I have to stick to it) starting next Monday. I am going to make a design plan and a posting schedule. That way, I know what I am writing about and it will be certain that the whole darn thing has flow. Yeah!

Also, it’s a great idea to make a list at the end of the work day (vata time), so that when you arrive the next morning (kapha time) you can just follow the list.

It also takes anxiety away. Just look at the list or the plan! The answers are there for you. Plan now and you won’t have to worry later!
