I think I’m more likely to start with the tadpoles than the frogs.

I’m a morning person so I don’t really need to do much the night before to prepare for the next day. I wake up really early and have plenty of time to get things done. The hardest part if waking my daughter up – she’s little but loves to sleep.

That is so true about morning setting the tone for your day. I just wish my head wouldn't feel as heavy some mornings, as I age I really notice my greater morning sluggishness. Have any advice for that? (Maybe don't get older?) Jannie´s last blog post..Thankful Unveiling

hi Avani, thanks a lot for stopping by! I like your blog too. For me, I have to set my to-do list the first thing I arrive office. Yet, it’s never completed by the end of the day.

@Sarah: Have you tried tadalist? I have heard lot of people recommend that one. I vouch for paper pen approach

@Urban Panther: Sound asleep by 10, wow! What time do you wake up ?

@Lance: Yeah, the lesser stuff we have to do in morning, the better it is. You know, a lot of people in India do not eat food from last night. Have to make fresh food everyday.

@Marelisa: One magazine at a time, that’s the way to go.

@Cath: Eat that frog has been on my to-read list since a long time. I found ‘eat that frog’ concept useful enough. Wonder what other treasures will I find inside.

Hi Avani – Eat that Frog is an amazingly helpful book. And preparing for the following day, the evening before, really works well. You just feel less stressed in the morning – it makes life a whole heap easier.

Hi Avani: I’ve been breaking tasks down from frogs to tadpoles and it has helped me tremendously. Instead of thinking: I’ll declutter my magazines when I have a couple of hours to spare, I just take pick up a magazine as I leave the house and go through it when I’m waiting in line or at the dentist’s office. Then I cut out anything I want to keep and throw away the rest. I’m finally getting this task done

If there are things I can do the night before, I will - like get lunches ready, for instance. That's then one less thing to do in the morning. Lance´s last blog post..With Many Thanks, We Dance

Re: asks you to set an alarm for 10 pm every night. I am sound asleep by 10 p.m. *smile* However, it's not a bad idea actually. I'll just set my alarm for earlier. There are definitely things I can do before I go to bed that would help getting going the next day. One thing I have discovered, is that I must exercise before I get home from work. Otherwise, it just ain't gonna happen. So, I joined a gym right beside work and I go work out every day at lunch time. This is working much better!
