Creating a Schedule

So I have my goal (I've decided to play checkers ((refer to previous blog))), which is finding myself as an artist.  Now I need to form a game plan.

Keeping a consistent, yet flexible, schedule is a great way to motivate yourself and stay on track.  I always have so many ideas and want to do so much,  but when I do not set an actually plan sometimes nothing (or little bits of everything) gets done.  If you are serious about obtaining your goal, get a planner or even a sheet of paper, and write down your schedule.  Being able to physically see your schedule written down as opposed to holding it in your head will help you remember what to do and in what particular order.

I have my own little mint planner (loving that color so much right now) that I try to write everything down, so not only do I know what I want to do, but I have a record of what I have previously done so I remember my days better.  For my path of discovering myself, and growing up, I have decided I will try to follow this general schedule, until I form an even more solid one:

Sunday
open for finding opportunities or working on my own projects

Monday - Thursday
 wake up at 7am
morning routine
(write blog on Monday and Thursday)
work 4-6 hrs.
break
 work on designs

Friday 
wake up at 7am
morning routine
work 2-4 hrs.
break
personal project

Saturday 
work
open rest of the day

This is my schedule I have set for myself for now.  Let's see if I can keep it or when I can improve it.  Remember, if you are trying to discipline yourself more and get the most out of your day, setting a schedule can be beneficial.  Also, life happens, and everyday will not be according to plan, so try to work around it and get ahead of projects if you know something is coming up.  You can always switch times and activities around until you figure out what works best.  It's your schedule.
