GETTIN’ IT DONE: FIRST STEP TO A CLEAR MIND

12/12/2016

Do you ever sit down to complete a task and find you can’t focus long enough to get started, let alone complete it? One distraction after the next- “I’ll just do this quickly” or jot this down before I forget. Well let me tell you, I use to be the Queen of this and ultimately became the cause of my own stress. I’ve since come up with a few tools to help myself be more productive.

I call it my GETTIN’ IT DONE process. I encourage you to take this process and make it your own, maybe add a swear word or two to the name if it makes you feel better. Here is the first step of the process and I know it might sound silly, but just trust me and give it a try before you knock it.

BRAIN DUMP

Let me tell you, a Brain Dump really is a wonderful thing, and so, so simple to do.

Step 1: Grab your favourite notebook or even just a piece of paper (go ahead, I’ll wait….)

Step 2: Write down anything and everything that comes to mind. BUT WAIT!
Before you start, there are just a few guidelines to remember:

  • No Editing– whatever comes to mind! Don’t worry about spelling or grammar. Do you speak multiple languages? Don’t hold back, write in all of them if you wish!
  • No Organizing– I know this will bother some of you, and trust me at first I struggled with this but the less you organize now, the more you will write down and the more effective this exercise will be
  • No Idea is a Stupid One– seriously though; if it’s on your mind get it on the paper.

That’s basically it for the Brain Dump. Having all your thoughts, to do’s, reminders and such on paper clears your mind and allows you to reorganize your priorities and focus on the task at hand!

I know it sounds too simple to even work, but I can promise you it’s worked for me! Once you’ve completed this, move on to the next step: Organize it.

Send me a snapshot of your Brain Dump using the #GettinItDoneBizStyle tag!

I know, I know.. that's not really breaking news.. I know, I know.. that's not really breaking news... It's actually something people dread talking about. 

Everyone assumes they have lots of time to worry about it later, but life can be unpredictable. ⏳

We can't change the inevitable, but we can ensure that when tragedy strikes, money won't be an additional issue. 

I promise you, insurance talk doesn't need to be scary! :) 

If you're unsure what kind of coverage you have in place, or have questions about it in general let's set up a time to chat! 

P.s My services are free of charge!
It’s been a while since I’ve done a little int It’s been a while since I’ve done a little intro post. 

So, hey! I’m Amanda-Marie, or AMS, or AmandaMarieBiz. 

I’m a thirty-something, Kingston local who loves black coffee, cool mornings and a good book. 

A few other facts:

I’ve been to every province in the country except PEI. 

When I was 8 I recorded an album with a kids choir called Zucchini Alley - 🎵

I live gluten & dairy free due to Hashimoto’s - Have any good recipes? Send them my way!! 

I’m a financial agent, which I know for some of you sounds boring but I love it! I have the opportunity to provide education & resources to all Canadians. We make sure that no family is left behind. 

I run a networking group for women professionals in the YGK called The Bliss Network Exchange. We have the BEST members.

We have a huge mission of no family left behind. I We have a huge mission of no family left behind.
In order to make that happen, we need more people who want to help people. 

If you’re open to new opportunities, let’s chat & see if we’re a good fit!
A few weeks ago I had the opportunity to go speak A few weeks ago I had the opportunity to go speak to a group of incredible students at SLC. 

Together they formed the SLC Investing and Trading Club which is a student run organization focused on financial literacy! 

I waked them through the basic and yet fundamental principles we support everyday Canadian’s with.  Many were shocked at how much they learned and how simple it can be. 

Money and finances don’t have to be a scary topic! In fact it can be quite freeing knowing you have the right plan in place to protect yourself and your family. 

I’m so grateful that I was asked to chat with this group and even more grateful that I get to run a business that supports people in this way every single day. 🖤
