Helen, I absolutely love your videos; they really inspire me. I wish I had a fraction of your enthusiasm, motivation and organisational skills. I had so many plans for my reading and writing when I was off work for the festive break, but wasn’t very successful. I felt I just needed to rest, so I did, but still felt guilty. I did however manage to achieve one goal which was to submit some of my writing to a competition, so I was quite chuffed about that. I think I need to adopt your method of setting goals, and then breaking them down into tasks, that way I might not feel so overwhelmed about how to make start on a particular project or idea.

Shona, I’ve had a lot of rest over the last few weeks. A lot more than anticipated. And that’s fine. Nothing to feel guilty about. Honestly. We all need rest. Well done on your submission, that’s fantastic!

Could not hear the snoring - and also greatly appreciated the cute peek at the pups snuggled together under your desk. 💜 Thank you so very much for sharing - I too was (still am a bit) feeling SO overwhelmed with what plan for this month for my own projects. I've only just now felt like dipping a toe in. Suspect I'll follow my intuition of keeping things slow & easy - just like you talked about.

Definitely slow and easy. One step at a time.

My year didn’t start until this week! I always need that first week of January as like “a vacation from vacation” 😅 even though I’ve been back to work since Christmas week (I only get Christmas and New Year’s Day off) but just took time from planning and writing to rest that part of my brain. Glad to see you’re back at your desk, too! Let’s do this, 2024!! Happy New Year! 💖✨🔮💫

Thank you for sharing this. 😊 Also happy to see some of the cleaning, it gives a down to earth feeling. I sometimes get frustrated when I watch vlogs from writers: seeing them sitting at cosy, stylish, clean desks, writing - planning - decorating their planners..while I'm looking at dustballs in the corner and try to gather my thoughts. And I wonder, how do those people organise their daily life? In the meantime my dog has diarrhea and needs to go outside every half hour, my cat decides it's a good moment to vomit on the carpet and my husband is grumpy because I didn't get his favourite Schweppes at the supermarket.... I like your calm attitude....and your doggies 🙂

Haha my cat does exactly the same! And there’s dog hairs all over my office chair - I always manage to get them captured on camera which bothers me but if it gives the down to earth feeling I’ll stop worrying about it. 😂 Thank you!

Not even finished this video and want to say thank you so much for this!!! Love your desk area and love that you show the “mess” that has to be cleaned up. I’m the same way with stacks of books and parcel paper everywhere!!!! Thank you again! Loved every minute of this!

Happy New Year, Helen. I've not managed to do anything much at all so far this year. I don't have to write until next month but still havent done my newsletter which I usually send out at the beginning of each month. I'm glad I'm not the only one finding it difficult to get going.

Definitely not the only one! I've had another day of not doing much today :)
