____ 1. Working in bursts. No matter what I'm working on, I like using something called the Pomodoro technique. This technique was developed by Francesco Cirillo, an Italian entrepreneur. Originally created as a study habit (he was a college student in the late 80s), this technique helped maximize his productivity and reduce feelings of burnout. It works beautifully! The premise is that you focus working in short, intensely focused bursts...and then follow with a brief break to recover and start over...or start something else if you finished the task you were originally working on. I generally work in 20 to 30 minute bursts, and then give myself a seven-minute break to do something relaxing that gives my mind and body a rest.

____ 2. The sun on a cold winter's day. Even though it has been blustery cold where I live, there is something so satisfying to me about the sun shining. When it's overcast this time of year, I find myself longing for those bright rays... and when they're shining, I take time to enjoy and appreciate them.

____ 3. Organization under the kitchen and bathroom sinks. It's very easy for the storage areas under sinks to get super messy and overfilled with cleaning products. Weed out these areas of anything that doesn't belong and use up the cleaning products you have before you buy more. Dish soap and dishwasher tabs or liquid, an all-purpose cleaner with disinfectant, a glass cleaner, and one or two specialized cleaners (like glass top stove cleaner, or copper cleaner for pots) will likely fulfill most cleaning needs for most families in these rooms. I like storing these types of items in a good quality storage caddy in the cabinets beneath the sinks. This particular one is great because it has a handle, which means I can easily transport it to other rooms if needed. For more details on this item, visit:
