The begging question

What does everyone’s daily routing look like? I’m up at 4:15am, admin, gym, editing, work, work, work until sometimes late into the night. Making lunches and dinner can seem daunting with a crazy (self inflicted) schedule. Yet I can’t stop doing this to myself. Ever since opening my company it’s been the same. Do you have a job that you’re not able to just drop belt at 4:30pm and head home? Plumbing is challenging as you often have someone’s heat or water off so there’s no bouncing til your done. Time management is definitely not my greatest skill, how the hell does one survive?! Or fix this insanity?! I’m tired! But, I do holiday a lot for extended periods as I have to remove myself from home to actually decompress so theirs is a light at the end of the tunnel at least.

I've found with having a routine the only consistent thing through different seasons of my life is I have to be flexible! I try to stick to a routine but inevitably everyday looks different and life gets in the way of my ideal routine. For me, if I can have a consistent night routine (going to bed around the same time, journaling, etc.) and a consistent morning routine (gym, shower, breakfast, etc.), I'm more equipped to handle the busyness of the day!

I'm up between 4:30 and 5 most days. I edit, invoice, respond to emails, etc then meet the crew onsite about 8 (they are there about 7:30) and work with them as long as they need me, shoot content, come home and off load coards, then head to the gym, then come back and edit off and on until bed time

I find that as long as I stay in motion, I don't get behind.

Here's something that has help me. Think of shedule and work load like a sine wave.......why is it some weeks everything lands and other weeks are easy? During the "easy" weeks, borrow from the future and try and make the peaks and valleys in the sine wave less dramatic.

So on an easy Sunday, I'll often ask Nicki (my wife), what can we take from the future, either later this week or later in the month and do it now or get started now

What’s a great way to run the weeks. I think I’m going to try this!
