The question on everyone\u2019s lips was not about her lecture on writing but, <em>\u2018How does she do it?<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Sarah\u2019s example set me thinking about time. How do you find the time in order to do all the things you want to do?

Be present.<\/h2>\n<p>Stop thinking about the next job and focus on the thing you are doing. True concentration gets the job done. Time often becomes meaningless if you are totally focused on what you are doing.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>2. Make an action plan.<\/h2>\n<p>Get the jumble of thoughts out of your head and down on paper.\u00a0 Write down your problems perceived or otherwise then write down all the possible solutions to your problems. Writing down all of your worries will diminish your stress.\u00a0 Reducing the amount of time you spend on worrying will claw back some of your time.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>3.

Remind yourself that \u2018Done is good enough\u2019.<\/h2>\n<p>Perfectionists often don\u2019t create and share their gifts because they spend too much time worrying about imperfection. That\u2019s a big time waster. Their focus on detail means they are unable to see the overall picture and when the job is done.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>5.

Question more and prioritize.<\/h2>\n<p>People often spend more time worrying about what they have to do instead of doing what they want. Decide what is true for you only then will you fully connect and commit to the job ahead. This is like treating your time like your money.
