648 - Planning for the next 120 Days
Organize 365® Podcast
We’re spending all this time invisibly planning. I desire for it to be more visible. For home, I have always planned in these trimesters, 120 day chunks. You can hear all about it in ep. 132. I call these chunks summer, fall, and winter. When the PhD is finished (hopefully in Dec.) I will have planned 9 chunks. Each chunk of time starts with this natural break in the hustle of life and gives us these organic bursts of energy to declutter, organize, and reset. It became very clear to me the energy of each season during this PhD journey. What did I plan? How did it go? And how am I leaving...

There are 3 types of responses to what’s going on.

info_outlineOk now it’s time for Swiss Cheese Organizing Family Edition, this Friday, February 28th @ Noon EST! It’d mean a lot to have you attend live but there will be a replay. By attending live you will have the opportunity to ask any questions. Swiss Cheese Organizing in any home or business is ineffective. Just like I taught in the business edition webinar, the order in which you organize is way more important than the time you invest in organizing. And even more so with children under foot. Children provide a very unpredictable variable to life and how long your spaces stay organized.
I’m going to teach you to organize your summer organizing efforts. Get your kids spaces set (like age appropriate toys and clothes) and your summer calendar set so you can have a little fun too. Once the replay of the webinar is available, the Summer Planning Guide will be available too. It’s a grid I used to use to see all of summer in one snapshot. I will be offering a video to take you through setting up your Summer Planning Guide too. That way, once school starts again, you’ll be able to focus on your household organizing.
You can access everything at Organize365.com/summer2025. What’s everything? Sign up to attend this webinar plus see what all is being offered this summer for planning and organizing in Organize 365®! I’m talking to parents, homeowners, business professionals, teachers, military men and women. Start planning now with the Swiss Cheese Organizing Family Edition, don’t forget to sign up!
