Today I went to Morden Hall in Morden in London and it has a lovely shop and a lovely cafe. So to work on getting things done is to find out what is your favourite time of day where you have the most energy? For me it is the morning and where is your favourite place to go to help get things done.

This morning in Morden Hall Cafe. Working on my book and video scripts and ideas.

I spent time in the Morden Hall Cafe writing notes for my books and working on my other channels and video ideas and watching a bit of Youtube. I love working in coffee shops and cafes. There were other people doing the same and just so good to be in a place that energizers you and tomorrow I am off to see a School, as part of this reset is to find a secondary school for my son, for next year.

I checked out my closet in Epsom that needs to be sorted out and have a idea of empty another storage cube bin and my corner unit and this is going to happen on Thursday and today finished another question of my counselling course that I want to complete by the end of this years Autumn Reset.

Some maybe a night owl and like to work later in the evening, which I was doing for a while, but I like the mornings, so do a reset and on a day and time that suits you and works around your daily schedule to get tasks completed by the end of October 2024.

It so good to find a time you know you won’t feel the massive slump and not be bothered but that you are excited to do the tasks that will help you get the outcome you want. Like working on my bedroom in Epsom will give me more space to hang my clothes and not have everything all over the place and it does no good being the way it is, so doing it when I know I will gladly get it done. This is how you commit and move on to the next projects and areas of your life you want to focus on. changing your home be the what you have dreamed of and same with finishing a book or a course.

So lets continue and my first week went as good as it could as I had a my a sick child, who is now better and got what I could, get done, but not putting too much pressure on myself.

If you like to share your first week of this years reset then please lets encourage one another. You can use the comment section below, and please subscribe then you’ll never miss a blog.

Autumn Reset: Week 1 When there are things you really don’t want to do

So today I had a tidy up. I tidied my clothes and going through my clothes for the laundry that is in the guest room in Epsom and is one area of my home in Epsom, that I want to do a makeover on have begun to decide where I am going to start first.

This morning I completed another chapter of my book series that I want to work on to complete the first draft during this yearly reset that I do each year and the other area that I want to add is in my sons bedroom. At the moment he has a TV unit that has pictures on it, but also stores some of his clothes so my son can find what he wants to wear and an outfit when not in school, without difficulty. Room and spaces to me have to be functional. Like example having my sons clothes set up each day do when he comes from school can go to his room and change, without having search around and is there waiting for him.

His uniform is kept in his built in closet in his bedroom and also want to organize his books.

You will find when doing a reset and changing spaces, that there are other areas that crop up and needs work on and want my sons room to be suitable for my son, to have some easy access for him to find his clothes and pick them up and with books too.

His toys are downstairs in a cupboard and has easy access, and sorting out the shed found some toys that he has rediscovered and the shed will eventually be where I will be crafting at the moment not practical as it will be cold in there and so may need to put these plans on hold but I can still sort it all out and so yes so many obstacles but means I can focus on finding a secondary school for my son. One area I am sorting and work on my book and complete my counselling course.

So there are jobs that I have been putting off and made excuses but I am done with that habit and I want a room which is clutter free and is nest not just a room, so no matter I can still declutter and so second week going to make some changes that I know can be done and have less to sort out, once the shed is ready to be used as a craft room.

Autumn Reset: Week 1 Not Planning Too Far Ahead

I am someone who likes to plan, but have to rein myself in, to remind myself to focus on each day and what I can do today. My son been ill has reminded me to do that.

So focus on one thing you can do today that will help you tomorrow, like having time to make a nice cooked breakfast to begin your day, before doing your reset tasks.

Today my focus was to take care of my son, by making sure he has his antibiotics, he was going to go back to School tomorrow, but due to the antibiotics he has been taking, has an upset tummy and so will start to sort out the guest room and the shed I want to clean up, as it has been refurbished with a new roof and doors, is once my son returns to school which I hope is next week, to be cleaned up, so I can take my craft products, out of the guest room, to be moved into the shed.

When my son has been at home this week I have worked on my book and this morning I was awake early and got up to work on it with other tasks and been struggling to get up early the last few days and once my son is okay can do more and so if you want to join me in this yearly reset programme and you don’t miss a post please subscribe.

So I will see what tomorrow brings and if I can continue to work on the different areas of my life, to organize and work towards their completion, then I will and see how my son is, so he is well again and then I can do more to complete the projects I want to get done, for this years Autumn reset.

Please share your first week if you have joined me and lets cheer each other along as we add our wellbeing and for me it is all about, having the life I dream of, which is to teach and help others as much as I can, by developing my projects to make sure they are helpful and that you love being part of my community I am building to help others live their dreams.

Live you life and believe that what you dream of is possible.

Autumn Reset: What you would like to focus on in joining me in this reset programme

So it is week 1 and I have laid out what areas I want to work on for this years Autumn Reset, using my printable (please check out my blog: autumn 2024 and it is free to download).

To get started I wrote down What I want to focus on?

In asking this and looking at my list I can workout, what is truly is important to me and what will once the most important tasks are completed, like booking my son to see the dentist, will then give me room to work on the next items that I would like to complete, example: I want to work on my next book, of my book series I am putting together, and complete the first draft.

This week has been challenging because my son has been off school due to a Chest Infection and so been working on my book, and today contacted the dentist and just focusing a few areas at a time, can really help to work on the next part on the print out, breaking it down.

So the first thing I need to do about the Dentist is to contact them to arrange an appointment, then go to the appointment. I split my tasks up that I want to complete. I split the up in Home, Work and Play. So booking the dentist is under home, working on my book, goes under work and not really got anything under play but this could be fitness, meeting with friends once a week, trying out different restaurants in London for example, and gives you the outcome you want.

It is all about what will give you joy and building the life you want, being the person you want to become.

So lets work together and please share what areas/tasks you want to complete for the Autumn Reset. You can leave a comment below.

Hello this is the first day of my Autumn Reset and will helping you to reset and help to finish areas of your life that need completing.

Please see my last blog that had my Autumn Reset free printable Autumn Reset starts tomorrow

I have begun to feel in first page of what I want to complete and then will be deciding what are the main things for me to do, and what can be completed on another time and will go through my Notion of my goals and plans for 2024 and 2025 and what is top priority.

So what is a reset?

It is where you pull yourself back and restart and the Academic year is when I like to get things complete before the following year and make way for other projects I want to do and get back into planning and sorting things out for the rest of the year. This is what it for me means and get back into the school routine and set new goals and help build my habits to organise my life and means decluttering and changing your food, home and routine for the autumn season, ready for the winter.

So I have begun making a list and this week was challenging as my son was home from school with a Chest Infection and so if you can’t join in straight away then please don’t worry you can start when it is a good time for you, I just wanted to help you as I do a reset each year and found it helpful and hope you do too.

You don’t have to fill in all of the printable but as you start and begin to get those tasks completed and use the pages where I have put week 1 to decide where you’d like to begin and reflect on each week and log what you have done so far and spend time go through what would be the easiest to ones where you feel may need more time on. This is where it is good to use the page of printable of breaking your tasks up once you have decided on the areas/tasks are mostly important to you to complete.

Please subscribe as I will posting on a two to three day basis for this programme and then you won’t miss a post and will be filming too on my vlog channel: https://www.youtube.com/@typicallondongal

Yes it is now Autumn and that means school is back on. Does that feel you with dread? 

This would be me, but now, now I am more present in mind, have had the best summer I have had so far in my life and had some really good days out, had time for myself too and really been a lot of fun.

If there was one thing you would like to do in the summer, then jot it down, and save it.

This is a picture of my son stroking a cat we often see in Southpark Gardens in Wimbledon and perfect good to play in all year round.

I have written a few posts about the Summer holidays: https://mydailythougthsandfeelings.blogspot.com/2024/07/enjoying-summer-holidays-2024.html

https://mydailythougthsandfeelings.blogspot.com/2024/08/enjoying-summer-holidays-2024.html

https://mydailythougthsandfeelings.blogspot.com/2024/08/unplanned-walk-summer-holidays-2024.html

I have vlogged too, which will be published soon, on my vlog Youtube Channel, Typical London Gal Carrie Holmes

Altering habits has helped, like not stopping in as I was having two days indoors, but I actually found that this left me feeling restless and feel better, when I have been out. i was anxious about taking Henry Swimming, because it was a different gym, but was really good fun and having time to watch a series on the TV and taking breaks from my laptop and not being near my phone all of the time, helped.

It is the end of my Summer Project 2024 programme and on the 10th of September is when my Autumn Reset will begin, getting parts of my life sorted out and projects finished, like my book that I am having proof read is done, a first draft of another book done and I have been doing a Counselling course and will be completing and sorting out my room in Epsom, and when the shed is finished in the garden will give it a good clean and give it a bit of make over and use it for my crafting as I want to get back into scrapbooking again and other crafting products I want to do.

I really hope you all had good summer and you enjoyed the holidays and we may still have good weather as sometimes summer can last a lot longer, we hope, as I have loved being in shorts and not having to wear so much to keep warm.
