The second step of my Get Sh*t Done Method is “Plan Your Timing”. As a special needs teacher and mom of four, you betcha that I whip out that timer often to get sh*t done — both at work and at home! Using a timer boosts my focus and efficiency as a busy working mom. It also marjorly helps to reduce my overwhelm and plus I feel accomplished by the end of the day! I can’t wait for you to listen to this episode of the podcast this week so you can feel the same. Let’s get sh*t done, mama!
