This week, I only put 2 items on my "goals for the week" list:
1. outlining my talk
I am doing a talk on 8 August and while I've spoken on the topic "Empowering women" many times before, I need to condense some things, do a proper outline and decide exactly what I want to cover this time. I also customise to the specific group so that needs to be also taken into account.
2. writing one chapter of my new e-book
I have done only 1 out of 5 chapters and I need to get cracking. As with everything else, it is the starting. Once I sit still and write the first 15 - 20 mins, I'm hooked and I can write for hours.
When I get a bit stuck, I tell myself, "what would I do if I were coaching myself?"
So today, I am going to (1) reward myself with reading blogs for 10 minutes AFTER I have written at least 30 minutes, and I will keep doing that until the chapter is done. Then (2) I am blogging it for accountability.
Those two things usually work for me!
Go visit 5 minutes for mom for more great tackles. And while you’re surfing, say hi to a blogger today!

Accountability does it for me with Tackle-it-Tuesday! If I post I'm going to do something...I will work my tail off to get it done & post the results!
Good luck today with your tackles!
Good luck on your tackle! I've always been impressed with people who can write coherently. lol...
Insentive is good, but the real reward will be the actual accomplishment!! That is a pretty big tackle!
