CoSchedule isn’t technically a productivity tool, but it’s still incredibly useful + time saving. Here’s the bullet points in case you don’t have time to watch the video: Price: $10/month Social media editorial calendar plugin for WordPress What that actually means: it lets you schedule social media updates, corresponding to a particular post, from within […]
Priorities. We all need them. But people have a really hard time setting them – we have so many things tugging at our attention and energy that it can be incredibly hard to figure out what’s worthwhile and what’s not. During the latest live round of Rock Your Systems, I taught the participants an exercise […]
I don’t know about you, but I never get all my planning done in the first week of January. Usually I take the whole month to plan, and this year? I want to make sure I’m building a solid foundation that takes into account everything (not just number-based business or income goals, like I have […]
I didn’t grow up knowing I was pretty. Which is weird, because I remember being told it. I remember hearing it from my family, and family friends, and occasionally a teacher or two here and there (in an appropriate way, not in a woah-creepy way).

(This was originally published in May 2013, in a slightly edited form at Kelly Diels’s blog as a guest post; I’d like to collect most of my writing into one spot on the internet, so I’m reposting this and some other pieces. It’s also worth noting I’m not on medication any more which is a […]
Shock: January kinda got away from me. Probably due to any number of factors (I’m guessing mostly a huge switch-up in routine!), I didn’t get this post done in anywhere near the timeframe I’d originally imagined. So now I’m combining the looking ahead at 2014 post + the January recap post; I want to do […]
Ages and ages ago, I saw a paper planner that really piqued my curiosity – I believe it was on Gala Darling‘s site. And then, I promptly forgot about it for a few years until I started wondering the other day if they were still in business, as I looked at planning tools for 2014…and […]
