I have had a successful week and please tell me how you are getting on if you are doing the Autumn Reset. There is a comment box below. So the one thing I wanted to completed was my courses I was doing. I did one in life coaching and then counselling and have now been completed and it is good feeling and so I can focus on the other areas, like my next book of a series I am creating called mum and me. My first one has already been published and so here is a link if you’d like to check it out: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Mum-Me-Gucci-Tits-Virtue/dp/B0BGNF4LNF

I want to complete the first draft of the second book and sort out my bedroom. Yesterday, I did film a quick declutter of my closet and getting rid of items and what I want to keep and feels good to say good bye to stuff and the clutter is going.

I am using my mornings to focus on my book and reading to help get it together and going through the first book and going to do a bit more plotting and using my notes to help build my story and it is taking shape.

What one thing can you do each today that will help you stay on track?

So I have a weekly planner on Notion but you can us a piece of a blank paper and with open with a calendar in front of you to work out the time you have to spare. If you do the school run mark this down, along with appointments and travel, and what gaps do you have. I remember watching Sunday brunch ( a UK TV programme on Sunday’s on Channel 4) they had Tom Fletcher from McFly sister, Carrie and she writes her books on the train to work and what time of the day do you have the most energy? I find it is the mornings.

I use google calendar and to block schedule.

What’s your main focus to reach the outcome in doing this years autumn reset?

So why are the areas you want to complete important to you in completing?

For me it is having the items that make me feel happy and have a good more productive space where I can write and want to get back into crafting and so the more I can sort out the more I can have a space to do my crafting, writing and sleep in.

I like to have a space to have a cup of tea beside my bed and a mirror and just make it a perfect nest for me and not have too much on the floor and not feel so closed in.

I want to eventually do everything in the shed and workout there and this will take time, because we have had the outside and roof sorted and cleaned and decluttered in there, but still needs to be decorated and made so it not cold being in there.

Do what you can and set your goals for it and reflect.

So I hope you are getting on alright and will be back with more blogs and am filming for it on my vlog channel: https://www.youtube.com/@typicallondongal

Please subscribe to this blog and also my Youtube channels for more content and inspiration in growing a life that you want and have a great weekend.

Many thanks for reading,

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.

Many thanks for reading,

Autumn Reset: Reflecting on my life 2024 the beginning of a new reset to get tasks completed and my hopes

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

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.

Many thanks for reading,
