Nuggets to get you through November…

nuggetsoflearning • November 2, 2020

We have one month of lockdown come Thursday, so what does your November look like?

Map out your month by using the number 4, as we have 4 weeks to focus on:-

Plan 4 weekends – create special meals/home cinema night/family Zoom calls/cocktails
Select 4 people you wish to connect with this month
Focus on 4 work goals – that will make the biggest difference
Identify 4 big exercise routines
Read 4 books (one a week)
Think of 4 house projects that have been outstanding for a while
4 ways to relax or simply 4 ways to be on your own

Traditionally monthly planning would ask you to think about the following as well as your Power of 4:-

Note any special dates (any Birthdays etc…)
Check your project list
Meal planning and shopping lists
Schedule your household chores
Bills to be paid
Schedule time for you

The other way to check whether you are on track, is to use Stephen Covey’s Habit 7 from the book 7 Habits of Highly Effective People – Sharpen the saw. He says to ensure that we are functioning on all cylinders think of your mind/body/heart and soul. So for the month of November map it out using this key:-

Mind – what activities this month will grow your mind, reading, learning and acquiring knowledge
Body – how much exercise will you do this month, and have you created a ritual or a routine to make sure it happens
Heart – Who will you connect with this month? on a one to one basis outside or virtually
Soul- What do you need to do to find space? – silence/meditation/outside/nature
