Yesterday, I posted about the importance of keeping a schedule. I later received an e-mail asking me how specific the schedule should be. My answer: as specific as necessary to make it work for you. If you feel that you need the discipline to plan out every moment of your day, then by all means do so. The important thing is that your schedule succeeds in keeping you on task and helps you to accomplish your goals. While I do have a set time for my daily goals, I keep my schedule flexible enough so that I can rearrange things and times if need be.
Below is my schedule at the current moment in time. It is continuously open for review and modification:
5:00 a.m. Wake up. Morning Meditation.
6:00 a.m. – Coffee, check email, read blogs.
7:00 a.m.- Exercise (aerobics, or bike ride). Shower
8:00 a.m.- Get ready for day. Check e-mail again, post blogs, journal. Eat breakfast.
9:30 a.m.- Check e-mail again before shutting it down. Begin fiction writing, Continue with occasional breaks until harp practice.
11:00 a.m. Harp Practice
12:30 p.m. – Lunch
1:30 p.m.- Quick check of e-mail. Work on at least one section of Courseware.
3:30 p.m. – Work on Spanish Lessons.
4:30 p.m. – Check e-mail, Web. Work on/finish up any other pending projects. If none, I’m done for the day!
6:30 p.m. – Dinner
Rest of evening: Free time for reading, study, social events or whatever.
Schedule can be adjusted for errands or appointments. Sometimes, my bicycle rides can run long so everything will get pushed back an hour or so.
