    Today I am sharing how I get things done with simple habits that work! Lately I have felt a little overwhelmed with everything going on in life. Luckily I have some easy routines and habits that I do every day to keep me on track even when life gets a little crazy. Whether it's starting the day with a quick plan or dedicating just five minutes to a task, I’ve learned that the key to productivity is building momentum with habits that I can stick to. Thank you so much for joining me today! I hope you have a wonderful week =)

    my one habit is making my bed. Was a nurse for years and its just part of every morning, no matter what mess or what happens in the day, to walk into the bedroom with a nicely made bed always feels good!

    @marciajenkins819 หลายเดือนก่อน +5

    I don’t like clutter around me, but I sometimes have a project or two going on which causes piles to go through. I try not to let these projects go on for days. Daily: I clean up as I go when cooking, and leave kitchen (prep areas and stove) clean. Go through mail right away. Fold and put away laundry right out of dryer. Put things where they belong.

    With 4 kids I have different types of baskets for "clean" and "dirty " clothes. This way every knows by looking at the basket that the clothes are in whether they are dirty and require washing or whether they are clean and need putting away.

    A load of laundry start to finish 6 days a week. Dishes done and kitchen clean up every day. Thirty minutes of cleaning/decluttering of another area.. Thirty minutes of reading. Life is easy when these are done.

    Things I do every single day - dishes, I don't have a dishwasher and don't want one. Make my bed and scoop out both litter boxes. Take care of inside and outside pets, feeding and fresh water.
    You seem to get a lot done, but you have more going on with young kids, a husband, business, etc.

    Shannon I really like your videos. I feel like I have learned alot from you. The 2 things I tried to do everyday is to make sure the kitchen is kept clean and clothes are washed, dried and put away. I had knee replacement a month ago and it was really hard not to be able to do things and rely on my husband. I'm finally getting back to doing more things. Dianna

    Since I’ve started earnestly on this decluttering journey since July and I’m still shocked at what I willingly let go of, I have hoarder tendencies, my home is looking more like someone cares, I’m doing 1 load a washing a day instead of leaving it till the end of the week. Even doing my tea dishes every night is so much easier than leaving them, all of a sudden you have pile of dishes the next day and don’t want to face them. I’m really enjoying my decluttered and don’t want to see it refilled with clutter

  • @bex438
    @bex438 หลายเดือนก่อน +7

    Hey Shannon, I think it's really great that you've been milling your own bread. I've been making no knead homemade bread for a few months now & when I had my dough spill over at the beginning it was because the dough was a little too wet, which also results in a moister loaf. It looked great though & if it tastes good then it really doesn't matter ❤️

    • @shannontorrens1
      @shannontorrens1  หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Thank you for pointing that out! I think that is what happened. In this case, do you just add more flour?

    • @rebeccasaunders2657
      @rebeccasaunders2657 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      Hey Shannon, you're very welcome, yes that's what I did & it seemed to work. I just try & make sure the amount of flour I use is correct as I think my scales were out when that happened & also that I don't add too much water to the flour/yeast mix. Ideally you want the dough to not be too sloppy or sticky, be able to easily handle tit & not feel like it's too wet to pick up out of a bowl. I'm no expert but I make bread every couple of days & it's really easy & always comes out great! I hope this helps 👍😊

  • @arlineswardson6012
    @arlineswardson6012 หลายเดือนก่อน +7

    #1 habit is “just do the dishes “. Learned this from Dana. Also, I like to measure flour by grams for baked things because I find that measuring with standard cups can vary in weight and not be consistent. I tweak my recipes and make a note so that they come out the same each time. I don’t make bread but for muffins, waffles and other baked things, I find it really helpful. Thanks for the video, Shannon!💕
