Welcome to Blogmas 2025! We will be publishing a new blog post Monday-Thursday for the next 3 weeks leading up to the end of term (18th December 2025)
PLUS we are giving you the opportunity to be entered into our annual Blogmas Bingo giveaway – See more information here!
Step 1: Identify which tasks or projects have the biggest impact the longer they sit untouched
- are delays causing a hold up in something being finished?
- are you potentially missing an opportunity – such as a timebound offer or sign up deadline?
- is the anxiety of leaving a task or project untouched having an impact on you in terms of mental load?
- what is the potential consequence if a task or project is left untouched for a few days or until January?
Step 2: Consider taking small action of some high impact tasks or projects
- could you give a task or project just enough attention to keep them in good stead?
- are there small actions that keep something moving and free up mental bandwidth?
- for example – sending a holding email or sharing a partial draft document
Step 3: Decide how to tackle tasks or projects – avalanche or snowball?
- Avalanche – tackle the highest impact task or project first – for tasks or projects that are time-sensitive or mentally draining
- Snowball – tackle the lowest impact task or project first – for quick, easy wins to help build momentum and confidence
Step 4: Commit
- once you have chosen your tasks or projects and method of completion – stick to your plan and take action. Then re-consider your priorities again tomorrow 🙂
