Send us more pictures of you all enjoying winter please… CC enjoying X-mas!

It's about to be a new year, many are asking about the new gym, a nutrition challenge and what changes will 2011 bring to Verve.  Well here is what we know.  Yes to a nutrition challenge in January, that one was easy!

Moving date is still to be determined.  As soon as we have a REAL date, we will do two things.  First, we'll let everyone know and send out a mass e-mail with directions so you don't get lost on your first class.  We are also going to be asking for help sometime in the next week to two weeks.  There are four major projects we need help with; putting up the new pull-up structure, laying and taping the new flooring, moving the equipment from old to new and cleaning up the old gym.  We will post sign-up sheets and of course, food and beverages will be provided for the slave labor.  More to come, but for now here is a sneak peek:

Can you find Anna, and which red do you like better

Those of you that know me, know that I have struggled with organization since coming out of the womb. I am not one to be beaten, so I continue to test, try and implement the next greatest thing that will make my life seamless.  Here are a few musts I've picked up over the years from various sources as I embark on 2011, determined to be organized and thus live an amazing stress free life or at least I'll die trying!  Hopefully these will help you in your world too. 

  • Keep nothing in your head, you are unreliable.
  • Write down all your to do's or stresses on paper before you go to bed.  Keep a notebook by the bed if you get that stressed.
  • Check your calendar every morning.
  • Have a prep day before the start of your week for: food, laundry, and getting rid of the previous weeks leftovers (I don't mean food folks).
  • You must have an inbox and that inbox must be processed at least weekly.
  • Reserve one day a week for FUN, whatever that means to you. 
  • If you're reading it, take action on it.  Trash it, act on it or file it. 
  • It takes 5 seconds to put something away, so just do it.
  • Making your bed in the morning makes you more productive for the rest of the day.
  • Clean out your files at least once a year.
  • Pay someone to do the things you won't.
  • Have a vision and a plan otherwise you plan to do nothing and go nowhere.
  • Have a routine for those things important to you and put that routine in your calendar as a reminder.  Routine is not your enemy but rather your ticket to freedom.
  • You must have lists, but they too must be organized.  I'm testing the old five list system; projects, calendar, next action, waiting for and someday/maybe.  I'll let you know how it works.  These lists must also be used and reviewed at least weekly or they are pointless.
  • Drinking water instead of sixteen cups of coffee makes you not only more productive but also more creative.
  • Make love, sleep, friends and fitness on the list of important things that you make time for.
