I find having monthly goals a great way to stay motivated and organised. However having an active toddler on my hands, has meant this post has been in drafts for almost 15 days..ekk bad blogger! Plus I have so many projects and organisations I’m attached too, I found I needed to break them down in to more manageable and achievable goals, as I wasn’t completing them and found it hard to stay on track.

I love a list! I am forever writing them and have loads of notepads around the house. I like the idea of shiny new ones though, maybe that’s what I need to get focused! X via #KCACOLS

thank you for inspiring post – I’ve got so many goals in my head but just need to get them in to a clearer format so that I can make more progress! I saw a gorgeous blogging planner on line recently but can’t remember where – am off for a hunt #bigpinklink

My pleasure I hope it helped inspire you. I know what you mean about a clear format, that’s what I’m hoping to achieve with my blog links! When you remember the online planner, let me know please X

I love a to-do list! Some good advice given to me: don’t cross out what you have gotten done, use a highlighter on it instead. Looks nicer and somehow adds to your sense of accomplishment! Re growing your twitter followers, find an account you really like, and follow lots of the people who follow it, because they are likely to be like minded to you and to follow you back, then you’ll have a stable of followers who like what you like and you’ll create a nice community for yourself 🙂 #kcacols

Oh I love that idea, I often create a tick box, as I feel more reward that crossing it out! But I love highlighters so I might try that too. Thanks for the sound twitter advise, I’ll be looking later. Thanks for commenting X

Oooooh, lush new notepads. I am a stationary junkie too. My daughter has inherited my love and is never without a notebook and pen. You sound unbelievably busy, I’m scared to write it all down as my to do list would look similar and be too scary. I do need to though!! Thanks for linking up, and good luck ticking off! #bigpinklink

Stationary junkie, I like that title, guilty of course. I think I also inherited this lovefrom my mum, who has some beautiful notepads and pens! It was quite scary getting it all down, but I feel they are achievable goals so I can do it or at least try! See you next week when I’ll have an update. X

I love notepads too. However, have been restricting myself to get too many, just in case it’s really a lot.

Thanks Becky, I’m quite pleased with my Twitter activity and now moving onto Instagram.

It is really useful to make lists for everything you need to remember. I use my notepad from my iphone and I write everything there. It is the easiest way for me. Although I still find it very difficult to manage my time. Life is not easy when you have kids! Good luck with the birthday party. My daughters love Peppa Pig, especially my little one. She is obsessed with her. She demands to watch it all the time, lol. Thanks so much for sharing this at #KCACOLS. It is great having you for the first time. I hope that you like it. I always remind people that joins us for the first time to check the rules as it makes easier to understand the linky. It would be lovely if you could join us again this Sat 2nd April that the linky is back after a week off, 🙂 xx
