Back to the Balls...

I talked a few days ago about the importance of knowing how many balls you can juggle consistently. Since then... I have been dropping balls all over the place. Some of them rolled across the living floor and went thump, thump, thump down the stairs, some of them rolled way in to the corner and joined the dust bunnies and some of them just lay smack bang in the middle of the living room floor. I always have one ball in the air, now I would like to add in the rest to see what is optimum or to explore if one ball is all I can juggle. Before we explore all that lets take away the mystery and identify the balls:
  1. 6:30 AM morning meditation
  2. 8:30 PM evening meditation
  3. Transitional activity (5:30 PM from work to play time)
  4. Marketing my upcoming events
  5. Spinning 2-3 times per week (Mon, Wed, Sat)
  6. Yoga/Pilates/Stretching 1 -2 times per week
  7. Focusing on strategy 25 steps to expanding my biz
  8. My group Momentum (teleconferences, newsletter, events)
  9. Breaking Thru to Success - 90 day program (promoting and running)
  10. Women's Success Circles - (promoting and running)
  11. Personal foundation Sundays and regularly check in with progress
  12. Speaking and booking speaking
  13. Blogging
  14. Systems for my biz
  15. Business expenses and budgeting

15 balls and I am sure there are a few laying around I forgot. Out of all these balls which ones am I consistent with 90 % of the time?

  • Blogging

Hmmm... I think it is time to prioritize. What are the next three balls I would like to be consistent with in order of importance?

  1. 6:30 AM morning mediation
  2. Transitional activity (5:30 PM from work to play time)
  3. Spinning 2-3 times per week (Mon, Wed, Sat)

Steps to picking them up

  • Set alarm clock
  • Review work schedule and identify where it ends
  • Make a list of transitional activities
  • Plan B and C for optimum spinning schedule
  • Put out clothes the night before
  • Go to bed at 10 PM

I am also going to create a chart to track my juggling and review it daily.
