Summary

It’s time for the last three planning days Organize 365® will offer this year. You are probably thinking “Oh, come on! How much more could we plan the holidays?” So much more! So many layers to planning!!

Holiday Blitz Mini Planning Day

Think of the Holiday Blitz Mini Planning Day like a taste of what we do in the Planning Days for Home and the Friday Workbox®. You will download the workbook and join the webinar. I start with having you think, what do you want the holidays to look like for YOU? Why are you doing what you are doing? Do you like the things you are doing for the holidays? Are there traditions or tasks others enjoy doing that you don’t? Could they take them over? You are going to decide if you can adjust expectations, do housework less frequently during this time, how you want to spend this time during the holidays. Where do you have room to accomplish all your goals for the holidays and have fun? My words for the Holiday Blitz Mini Planning Day are Projects and Play!! And how can you monopolize on Black Friday to keep your supply chain stocked while saving money?

The Sunday Basket® is a system that hopefully you have used and have seen the time savings on a weekly basis. And you know it’s a replicable system to run your home and delay decision making. But by this time, your Sunday Basket® is bursting at the seams so it’s time to get the Holiday Blitz Bundle, a Hunter Green Sunday Basket® and Sapphire Blue Sunday Basket® and a set of Rainbow 1.0 Slash Pockets, to set aside paperwork for 2025 and keep holiday actionable papers at the forefront to execute the holidays the way you want to.

Friday Workbox® Planning Day

With the year winding down, all critical work should be done by November 21st because people are going to start mentally checking out. So with that in mind, no meetings are going to be terribly productive so take the time to plan 2025…the first quarter, anyway. Scratch the itch to plan by attending Friday Workbox® Planning Day on December 6th. I have recorded new videos that you can start watching as soon as you get signed up to prepare for this planning day. Prep your calendars, revisit all your administration work in the green slash pockets, update any systems to start 2025 feeling prepared to be ultra productive.

Home Planning Day Prep & Home Planning Day

We will have Home Planning Day Prep on December 27th. The first hour you will process through your holiday basket which we will transition to a tax basket. And you will combine the sapphire basket back to your regular Sunday Basket®. And all the archive papers will go into your The Paper Solution® Binders, keeping them up to date.

The 4 hour live webinar for Home Planning Day is on Saturday, December 28th. We will be planning the next 120 days, 4 months of your household manager responsibilities, your small business. Lots of new videos for this planning day, too! Joey even put together a playlist so you can get started watching videos and listening to the podcast just as soon as you are registered.

I try to be your economic forecaster, giving awareness to upcoming events that may catch you off guard otherwise. Each 120 days that we plan for in Home Planning Day have different energies. Think of any Golden Windows you may have coming up. Is this the time to plan on a meaty project? You will ask yourself, what are the advantages and limitations of the current season of life that you are in? We spend a lot of time analyzing your time! Breaking it down and looking at multiple ways you could be using it. You will create routines for morning, afternoon and evening for Monday through Friday and for the weekend. Our Saturday and Sunday energy is different, too!

Won’t you join me in my maze of planning days?

0:00.0	Today's mailbag comes to us from Leah. I needed a new way and it just made sense to me when I would hear Lisa's process. Now that I have it, I am beginning to understand its true power and the piece that comes with it. I am only six weeks in on my Sunday basket and I know that I am not using it to its full potential yet.
0:22.6	I am trying not to put pressure on myself to understand it all yet, but let it reveal itself as I use
0:29.4	it. Do you have an Organized 365 success story? If so, we would love to hear about it. Please send us an
0:37.3	email at Customer Service at Organized 365 and tell us how you have taken
0:42.4	back your home, your paper, and your life with Organized 365.
0:53.6	Welcome to the Organized 365 podcast. I'm your host, professional organizer, productivity expert, and motivational speaker Lisa Woodruff. This podcast will help you embrace progress over perfection and create lasting functional organizing in your home. I have so much
1:13.4	to share with you, so let's get started. Well, our 10-week productivity series has come to an end,
1:21.7	but the culmination of all those productivity habits is a person who plans, who plans effortlessly, often,
1:30.9	plans for all kinds of things.
1:33.2	And so I want to talk about how really, starting tomorrow, we will be kicking off at Organized
1:38.0	365, our last three planning events of 2024, and how these three planning events really help you end 2020 for strong,
1:48.0	healthy, enjoying your life and really set you up for success going into 2025. It may seem like a lot
1:55.3	and it is a lot. But once you are a productive person, you just tend to plan and stack on your planning and you
2:03.4	have these amazing results. So anyway, it's time to start our end of the year planning. I'm going to
2:09.4	walk you through what I do from now until the end of the year and how you can follow along and adopt
2:14.8	some of these principles as well. Some of you have been following
2:17.7	for a long time and so you already do all of these things and you know how much extra bandwidth
2:23.0	you have and reduce cognitive load you have because you do the planning the way that organized
2:27.2	365 does planning. If you don't, I understand it seems weird. I am a lot. You'll really like the
2:33.7	podcasts that are coming up after this
2:35.3	because this year I found out that I, even though as much as I have the binders and I try to keep up
2:40.8	on all of my household management, there are quite a few really big things that I found out this
