As a procrastinator I have lots of good ideas but rarely actually get around to doing them. I have found that writing lists helps me a lot. I have decided to do a boot fair next weekend so I really need to get my backside in gear and get on with making things and sorting out what to sell. One of the problems I have is that in the past I have got rid of things and then thought later 'Why did I do that? I could use that right now'. I am not a hoarder, more the opposite as I hate clutter, but I need to let go of things without regretting it at a later time.
On my list of things today to do are
1. untarnish the silver plated spoons I bought at a charity shop and price them up
2. Iron and mend the vintage aprons and list them on ebay
3. Do two loads of washing (I have to put things like this on my list to remind me that I have other stuff that needs doing to as I get sidetracked easily!)
4. Sort out the Christmas decorations that I have started making and get pictures of them on my facebook page Feltylicious.
5. Confirm my bank account on paypal.
6. Label up the penny pot as an 'own home fund' for all that spare change and to remind us all why we are scrimping
Lists help me feel like I have achieved something at the end of the day and I enjoy ticking them off as it motivates me to do the next one. Silly I know, but it works for me :)
Anyway off to do number one and will check back in later.
Have a good afternoon x
