Day 6: Organizing Spaces and Finding New Angles
Today was all about organization and optimization—tidying up both physical spaces and workflows while balancing family time. While not everything on my list was completed, it felt good to make progress on key tasks and spend quality time with my family.
Tasks for the Day:
Airtable Audit: Update and refine my project management system to better integrate it with the accountability sessions.
Office Cleanup & Second Camera Angle Setup: Declutter the space and explore options for adding a permanent B-cam setup.
Organize Downstairs Gym Area: Sort through camping gear and create a dedicated space for everything.
Write a Blog Post for a Client: A creative task I planned to tackle either at the start or end of the day.
Results:
What Got Done:
Gym Area Organization: Fully cleaned and organized the downstairs gym space and camping gear without getting sidetracked—a big win for the day.
Office Cleanup & Camera Setup: Made good progress cleaning the office and tested potential setups for a second camera angle. While I’m not entirely happy with the angle, it works for now. Considering a top-down rig with the Kessler Shuttle Dolly Mini for future use.
Family Time: Spent meaningful time with my daughter, prioritizing her as she’s on her winter break.
What Didn’t Get Done:
Airtable Audit: Didn’t dive into this during the day but plan to tackle it tonight, as it’s a task I often enjoy doing in the evenings.
Blog Post for Client: This task was deprioritized due to time constraints and will roll over to another day.
Lessons from Day 6:
Avoiding Task Hijacking: Cleaning can often lead to a snowball effect, but I stayed focused and completed the gym organization without letting it expand into unrelated tasks.
Compromise on Camera Setup: Sometimes “good enough” has to suffice, especially when working within a tight space. Future adjustments can refine the setup further.
Prioritizing Family Time: Recognizing what can wait and what truly matters—like spending time with my daughter—made today feel balanced and rewarding.
Overall, today was a productive day with a good mix of work and family time. The progress made in organizing spaces feels great, and I’m looking forward to building on that momentum tomorrow.
