Default 30 Day Challenge: DEVELOPING A BETTER ME!!!!

I have struggled with organization for the longest time. If am not the most disorganized person on the face of the earth, then there is someone out there with a serious problem...

WORK ETHIC AND ORGANIZATION

I am a lecturer by profession and wish to get myself more organized. this means proper preparation of teaching material before the lecture, quality research, adequate planning of my lecturers, designing an efficient record keeping and filing system, getting to class on time, covering the course syllabus within the provided time frame (10- 15 weeks) and meeting ALL deadlines. AArgh!!! so much work! but am prepared to change my current deplorable state of affairs.


BEING GRATEFUL

Instead of seeing the glass half empty, i will for the next 30 days commit to seeing it half full and being grateful for everything that happens to me. This also means ignoring the negative and playing up the positive.

I will be grateful for all that I have (+ve/-ve) and for that which I want but not yet have.

BEING PLEASANT

I don't strike many as pleasant...am actually considered UNapproachable by many. I wish to wear a more relaxed and approachable countenance, smile more and learn to be easy around people. I wish to drop my overly judgmental nature and enjoy life more!!!!!


Be CONSCIOUSLY present to my son.

I tend to parent by remote control...because of my busy schedule, I'll not have much time for my son but the little time I have, I want to spend it consciously. This means leaving work at the office, fixing healthy meals for him, playing ball, taking him out on the weekends, helping with homework and supplementary reading the works. Kids grow up too fast..DONT want him growing up and not knowing jack about him.... he's a very huge part of why I live....I love you baby.



I'll keep a log of progress as I go along and update here after every few days.

I NEED ALL THE ENCOURAGEMENT IN THE WORLD....
