I am going to be sharing about designing your ideal month and designing your ideal week.

All right, let's dig into planning like a CEO.

First of all, I want to share a few of my overall views on having a calendar and planning.

I think that your calendar is very important. And whether or not you use an electronic

calendar or a paper calendar or some combination, your calendar needs to be with you at all times.

So for me, it is optimal to use Google Calendar. I keep everything on my Google Calendar and that way I can access it. My daughter can access it. My

husband can access it and my assistant can access it. So I have five of us at this time accessing

my calendar. So, okay, a personal calendar versus a business calendar. I hear some of you ask

this question and some of you

keep two separate calendars and that's absolutely your choice. For me, I find it the best thing to

have one calendar. My life is all in one calendar. So it's a combination of business and personal.

And that works out really well for our family. A couple tips, if you have anyone else

managing your calendar for you or adding things onto your calendar, it's essential that you keep

it up to date. So if I have an assistant booking things for me onto my calendar, she needs to

know whether or not I am available. So I literally put everything on my

calendar. I've also started scheduling in self-care and essential things like eating lunch. I know a lot of

you forget to eat lunch. I do too. And if I don't schedule lunch in, I will either one forget

to eat, work through eating time, or my assistant will schedule

appointments during lunchtime.

So it's been really helpful to put everything on my calendar.

I put driving time on my calendar.

I put where I'm driving.
