Summary
My "party trick" is being able to know what you're thinking; I've been doing it for over a decade. My obsession is figuring out how families and homes work. How to make visible the invisible work so ultimately we can spend more time with family and make more memories.
If I stay at least 10 days ahead, I'll have a buffer. If you have a buffer, then it takes A LOT for you to get behind the 8 ball again. Here are the things you need to be thinking about that will happen in the next 10 days.
-
Halloween: candy inventory and costumes
-
Fall Events: pumpkin patch, festivals, trunk or treat, etc.
-
Daylight Savings Time: changing clocks and circadian rhythms
-
Election Day: how and when you will vote
As a business owner, I think about how these events will impact my employees.
The more you are the leader, the Household Manager, the CEO and COO of your home - you get to decide what YOU want. You get to ask yourself: "What do I want?"
How do I know what's coming next? I know because I observe my own life, look a couple of weeks into the future, and then I move backwards. I'm obsessive about what is coming next, what is coming next, what is coming next. Always.

| 0:00.0 | Today's mailbag comes to us from Adele. Thank you for a great planning day. |
| 0:04.8 | Fall planning day gives me the most clarity of the work that I'm supposed to actually do during |
| 0:10.6 | this period. Shared spaces in the winter would be the second more clear area. The work we were |
| 0:16.8 | doing this summer seemed more vague as paper is much more personal. I now feel I have a solid idea |
| 0:24.0 | of the four planning sessions as to how I want to spend my time and focus. Thank you. |
| 0:32.0 | Do you have an organized 365 success story? If so, we would love to hear about it. |
| 0:37.9 | Please send us an email at customer service at organized 365 and tell us how you have taken |
| 0:43.9 | back your home, your paper, and your life with organized 365. |
| 0:56.1 | Welcome to the organized 365 podcast. I'm your host, professional organizer, productivity expert |
| 1:03.3 | and motivational speaker Lisa Woodruff. This podcast will help you embrace progress over perfection |
| 1:10.6 | and create lasting functional organizing in your home. I have so much to share with you, |
| 1:16.5 | so let's get started. I was thinking the other day about how I often say that my |
| 1:26.0 | hearty trick is being able to know what you're thinking. I've been doing this for over a decade |
| 1:33.6 | now. My whole entire life, my obsession is figuring out how families in homes work, |
| 1:42.4 | making visibility and visible work, operationalizing it, making more productive so we can have more |
| 1:49.2 | time to do what we want to do, which for me is always spend more time with your family and make |
| 1:53.5 | more memories. I was thinking about the podcast that I'm going to record for the end of the year, |
| 1:59.8 | and I was thinking about this idea that when I play out the podcast I always sit there and I think |
| 2:04.6 | like, okay, what would people need to hear this week of the year? Then I layer on what's going on |
| 2:11.8 | in the world and what is going on in media and what is popular right now because the same message, |
| 2:21.2 | if you went back through the October and November for the last nine years of the podcast, |
| 2:25.8 | they're all pretty similar. September, October is always a more really into productivity. |
