My Workspace!
This weeks blog post is gonna be a little insight to my workspace.
Every Monday I sit at my desk and get all the things done, so this is what it looks like.
My workspace is by no means Pinterest worthy, but hopefully one day it will get there. I keep my desk very minimal and then have inspiration and the things I love the most hanging on the wall. There is also lots of organization and everything has its own place.
So as you can see there is a lot going on, but I love it. I try to keep the top of the desk clean and minimal, so I don’t get overwhelmed.
The desk, chair, and peg board are from IKEA (links are down below). Most of the organization on top of the desk is from TJ MAXX and Tuesday Morning. Mainly because it’s cheaper and super cute. I love home decor so much!! As for the cork board that was from the dollar spot at Target and then the picture frame is from Ikea as well. I love personalizing my desk, since I am doing work which isn’t always fun I think by having pictures of the ones I love makes things a little more happy. I love taking polaroids and having them on the cork board, I love having special memories attached to them. I do have a ton of pictures with Murph (my puppy) but I mean cmon he’s totally cute and i’m obsessed!
I have all of my go to notebooks and planner in the magazine holder and then all my pens, markers, and pencils in the holder on the right of the desk. Everything else is inside the desk, but I don’t use those things daily. Daily tasks are marking things off of my weekly to do list and checking emails and setting up any meetings or going to them if scheduled.
My main work days are Mondays and Wednesdays. I do all social media for my church, so that work is all done on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Saturdays. But for my own business I do work on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. Not always is this my workspace, I do go to local coffee shops and sometimes I babysit so those tend to be my workspace as well, but when I work from my desk I feel more comfortable.
I typically wake up around 6:30-7:30 a.m. and get my day started by making coffee and breakfast for me and my cute pup. After that we head back to my room and get a roll of the to do list. I mainly plan out my week and see when I need to get things done. This week for an example is pretty chill, last week I had met with my senior reps to plan their first styled shoot. So this week I am scheduling their shoot and booking the studio we will be using. I am heading out to Dallas with my boyfriend and so I had to make a packing list & grocery list for the trip, since we don’t want to spend a ton of money on fast food and junk. Other than planning for that, I just figured out times I will be coaching at my Crossfit gym. Also, this week I am planning out a trip possibly for the winter/fall and budgeting for my senior rep team.
That is kinda a break down into this week, there is so much more that I have to do, but those are the key to do’s I have to get done. Every week is about the same schedule and the to do’s just change by week. Every week I make a new blog post for the following week and there is always something to be done for this next year of seniors!! I started making a “Guide for EMP Seniors” so when seniors book with me, they have a guide they can refer to when going through their senior pictures process. I have made so many changes for seniors, just in the way I do things to make their experience 100x better! I am super excited for that even though it is still summer.
I will have links to some of the items on my desk if you are interested!
