Sunday Scaries, Get Fucked.

I do 15 things every Sunday to start my week off right.

When I do the fifteen things, the week goes smoothly. When I do not do the fifteen things, my week goes off the rails. I've done enough A/B testing on this to know that the weeks that start with this knockout punch of a list are more present, productive, and peaceful. 

If you're here, you're probably looking to increase those things for yourself as well. 

15 Things is Too Many Things 

Nah. You do way more than that most days. You just don't count it all up like this. This list, in its entirety, takes about two hours if I'm not absolutely screwing around. And if you're subscribing to The Sursie you're not the kind of person who wants to screw around anymore. 

So. Here are MY 15 things. I made a lil graphic for you if you want to download it, but I am also including a button to click if you'd like to make a copy of this and edit it for yourself. I find that having the list established keeps me from using brain space to try to remember all the things that have to get done each week. 

I'm also going to include a list in this newsletter because I learned a long time ago that the more ways I can deliver information to people, the more people are going to be able to get something from it. But if you strongly prefer one way or another--do you mind hitting REPLY and telling me which one it is and why? I value your opinion! 

Make A Copy & Edit 

1. Scrub pet food and water bowls
2. Scrub water cups and bottles
3. Scrub lunchboxes
4. Clean out backpacks
5. Clean out cars
6. Prep dog treats for freezer
7. Update freezer, fridge, and pantry inventory
8. Meal plan for the week for ALL meals including packed lunches
9. Start grocery order for Tuesday pickup
10. Look ahead at upcoming tasks/birthdays/errands/fundraisers/etc & schedule
11. Plan workouts & schedule
12. Write all the lunch notes for the lunchboxes
13. Everything shower
14. Charge everything, every single thing, all of it charge it charge the things
15. Pick out outfits for the week including workout clothes

I invite you try to this. If not this Sunday, then next.

If your week isn't notably better because you've done the prep work, then you've lost nothing but a couple hours on a Sunday morning. ANDDDDD, you get to be self-righteous and smug about it, which--cmon, that's one of life's greatest pleasures, no?

If it is notably better, though...maybe you could forward this email to a friend? I'm trying to help as many folks as possible with this stuff.
