I hope you enjoyed this clean with me "office edition" and a look at how my Q 1 went and what I'm planning to do in Q2 of 2019. Are you planning quarterly? Or do you prefer to plan monthly/yearly? Let me know in the comments!
Your office is amazing! So many pretty things. This made me anxious to get my work space cleaned up and ready to go. My Kanban is set and I'm excited to start Q2. Your system is amazing and has helped me learn how to evaluate my goals and to reach them without negative self-talk when I don't get everything done. You look wonderful and so happy for you! Thanks so much for all you do!
Office looks great, but you should plan on what is really essential and what you really want for your baby girl. I have an almost 10 year old a 5 year old and baby will be 1 on August. Baby was supposed to be born on August 20, ended up planning a Csection for August 1(after they realised due date needed to be moved because his growth) and he was born August 2. We had some clothes as tgey are all boys but we had no furniture etc. So we kinda had to rush and buy everything as we found it. Hope your dates and pregnancy continue smoothly and you don't suffer the anxiety of loosing almost a month to get prepared because the due date was moved.
Oh my goodness, Nilda! that is a good point! I hadn't even thought about what might happen if the baby comes early. Very good idea to at least have everything settled as soon as we can, just in case.
Amazing - I especially love that furniture. And remember that baby “only” needs a place to sleep, dry clothes, and diapers when they arrive ... so be easy on yourself 😉
This video was so soothing to watch! Your voice is pleasant to listen to, and I feel like I’m checking in on a friend when I watch your videos. So glad you’re feeling better. I’m rooting for a smooth move and birth! I’m planning quarterly, thanks to HB90. This is my 3rd quarter and so far I’ve only managed to accomplish a lot toward one of my 3 each quarter. That has been partly because I’m working on starting a new business, and I found each quarter that as the plan evolves, I am more dedicated to one goal or that the others became slightly obsolete. I’m forgiving myself for that and just starting over for Q2.
Your videos are so helpful. I too had a crappy Q1 but unfortunately I do not have the justifiable reasons that you have. That being said, I've been using your HB90 system for 2 quarters now and really love it. I just bought the Q2 template and am looking forward to resetting and getting stuck in to Q2.
I love the dresser storage you're working around near the 8:00 minute mark. Would love to get something with shallow drawers like that one day for myself.
Sarra, tip for the move. Take your time (un)packing. Make sure you don't carry to heavy too, it's all bad for babyand you. I am right now 37 weeks pregnant and we only moved three weeks ago and I noticed I did way too much. I am still recovering from it and we barely own anything so we were able to move our stuff to the new house in 1 day. Take your time, have lots of breaks and make others do the work. It will certainly be better for your pregnancy. Best of luck!
Thanks for showing the before and after LOL. I hope there's a shower in your future! I'm putting my Kanban and qt stuff together today. After watching the WomenCreate summit last week I'm motivated again. Then there's Camp Nano to hopefully finish Book 2. Just make sure you rest. If you're drinking a lot, make sure to get your sugar numbers on your next doc appt. REST! Hugs and Blessings! ~Angela
Thank you so much Kelly!! And good point about the blood sugar. I had GD with my son, so I actually have been monitoring my blood sugar at home since the beginning. (It's very common issue with PCOS) So far everything looks good, but I know the danger zone is coming up, so I will definitely keep monitoring it! Sounds like you are doing great! It's wonderful to hear!
I love how cute your office is! I hope I can find that rug, it matches my bedroom! I tend to plan more monthly, but I’m mostly starting really planning this year. Thank you for sharing!
I too have moved house a few months ago in December 2018, and I have my first office space and craft area for working from home, it's great. I am following your 90 Days Planning with a Kanban board, and didn't get much done last quarter, But! ready set up for quarter 2. I am not a writer, I do Internet Marketing with plans to create my own product to promote in quarter 3.
Love this. I started using Kanban board last month and I am loving it. Thank you so much for sharing it. I keep my "doing" tasks for each week on the lower part of my iMac. I am loving the visual element.
Putting it out there that you are going to find your perfect place. I enjoyed this video a lot. Ended up cleaning up my desk. Congratulations on your pregnancy. I live in a share house and my office is a tiny desk at edge of my room. I used to have my own office, but I also love some aspects of both. Have a great Q2
Thank you so much! I am trying to keep that in my head! It always works out! And the perfect place will open up for us. Thank you for the positive reminder! I've shared an office with my husband or just claimed a corner of a room for most of my writing life, but I have enjoyed having my own space this past year and a half. I think I just have to trust that it will work out for the best wherever we go!
OMG! I gasped at your wall calendar and the washi tape. I've been using highlighters to mark the dates on my wall calendar. Now I'm gonna use washi!!! Why do I love that stuff so?? ...And then I saw your washi collection and realized that I really, truly don't have that much ;-p
I bought the HB90 planner today! =) I have way too much love for my Happy Planner to stray too far from it, but I'm happy to incorporate your ideals into my planner.
I am a HP user and you can totally use your HB90 planner pages in it if you print it a certain way. Play around with your printer settings. I printed 2 pages on 1 sheet as landscape, messed with the margins, and which pages to print together, then cut the excess and punched the pages with my disc puncher. Where there's a will there's a way! 💚💙💜
As always, thank you so much for these videos! You're my favorite RUclipsr and I just love watching you plan and be productive. I'm using a Kanban board now for the 3rd quarter and loving it. This time, I bought galaxy/planet sticky notes (I'm a sci-fi author) and I cannot wait to start moving down my sticky planets :-)
I think I am going crazy lol. I'm pretty sure I didn't dream up you having a video about the super structure plot building with the pages you made with the examples of " the disturbance, the care package, the q factor, lights out, etc" I just can't find the video. If you have a moment and know what video I'm talking about, could you please point me in the right direction. It's the same blank pages you used in the pouring series, but you never used them unless I'm losing my mind. That is a possibility. Lol thank you in advance. You're amazing!!
The fourth goal is just personal goals, so not usually business related and not necessarily time constrained on a 90 day plan. It's stuff like personal habits I am cultivating (daily meditation or yoga), books I'm reading, and right now, lists of packing tasks for our upcoming move.
I could watch you do anything! Unrelated question, how many books did you have out in e-book format only before you started doing them in print as well?
Thank you Nikki! That's so sweet to say! And I was sooo behind on paperbacks. Embarrassingly so! I didn't get any paperbacks done until about 3 years into my career when I wanted to have some for some book signings. I still don't even have everything in paperback! I really need to make it a priority, but I mostly have been really delayed on getting them done. Most of my books just went into paperback last year.
Heart Breathings also, I will be the first to sign up for your publishing course and will do my best to get others signed up. If you do the affiliate thingie let me know. Regardless, will do what I can.
Heey. Move some of ur furniture♥ organize ur chest of drawers in a L-Shaped design. 1 against the wall n 2 righy next to each other by the window where ur desk is. Then push ur desk to the other window. This way ur furniture will hv 1 flow through-out. Place the rug in the middle of the room to balance it all out.
Your office is lovely. Sounds like you will miss your office a lot. I'm happy for you that you are feeling so much better. In an ideal world you'd have few things to move, pregnancy would be a breeze and all of those Disney things. So what if you put everything in boxes, move, and discover you didn't need half of it. So long as you label all of your boxes you can dejunk when life is a little more normal. Life is what happens while we make plans. Drinking more water is good. Just chat with your doctor and check that you aren't experiencing a form of diabetes in pregnancy. It's more common than I thought. Love your work. 💜🦉🇦🇺
If you posted this or someone asked please forgive me.... where did you get the clear plastic holder that you have your washi tape in? Also, where did you get your clear plastic shelf that your computer monitor sits on? Congratulations on your pregnancy. I hope you are feeling better now. Blessings!
Hi Sara. You're looking great and happy. Just a thought to help alieve some of your guys stress... Why don't you set up a baby registry that you can share on your blog or here on youtube and let the people who really want to help you out give them a way to do so? I know I'm not the only one who would love to send you something for you special little girl. Take it easy and thank you for the inspiration and the help you've given so many people.
Hey! Enjoy your videos! Gorgeous office! I'm looking for a good office chair and unfortunately bought one that is so uncomfy. Where did you get your office chair? Hugs & Love From South Carolina. Thanks!
I believe this chair was from Target! I just recently moved this one down into my office, and I moved my more heavy-duty ergonomic chair to my gaming computer upstairs, because my husband and I have been playing final fantasy in the evenings, and I just needed the support! This green is one nice, though, because I like to sit cross-legged, but it doesn't offer as much back support!
Great question! The steps are usually the same, and I could reuse the post its if I wanted to do it that way. I'm often switching up the colors on the board, though, and I've been writing the specific book title on the post it lately, so in that case not reusable. But they easily could be a few times probably before they lost stickiness. Would save time!
Well maybe in terms of the Kanban board unproductive but the body has been at work! I also had a very scaled back work schedule while pregnant with baby, I was not prepared to be So Tired all the time.
We can't stay. The owners are moving back in. Buying a house as a self-employed person is a long and tedious process and we still own a home in another state, so it's just not the best time for that either. Thanks for your concern though

This is wonderful, Raven. And I love the name Maura!
Amazing - I especially love that furniture. And remember that baby “only” needs a place to sleep, dry clothes, and diapers when they arrive ... so be easy on yourself 😉
I wish I had an office like this! I'm still living with my parents and I hate working in the room that I also live and sleep. Great video! 😍😍😍😍😍
Oooo, I really like that post-it note system you have going on there.
Congratulations 😊 on your bundle of joy
Happy that you finally feel better with pregnancy :) Best of Luck with all your plans :) You look beautiful and happy, thrilled to see that :)

Thank you and congrats on your pregnancy! We have hired movers for the actual move, but it's more the packing and unpacking that I'm concerned about!!
I'm so glad that I found your channel! Your organisation makes me so happy :)
The “before” clip of your office looks very familiar 😂 loved this video! Here’s to hoping this inspires me to give my office a little TLC!
Haha, I swear it gets like this way too fast! Thanks for commenting, Mandi Lynn! Love your channel!

Good job, Sarah! So therapeutic
I’m so excited for you. Enjoy every moment even the stressful ones. ❤️

I think you are incredible! Thank you, and slow down and embrace this season of life.
"You're kicking me Smalls" 😂😂🤣😂🤣😂 That shirt killed me. Thank you for this video! I have my HB90 Kanban board up and I'm ready to go! 💚💙💜
haha, thank you Melissa! Hehe. I love it, too!
Don't be too hard on yourself. You're making a human.

NEVER ENOUGH!!! hahah
Love your process...And your office! HB90 tames my random scattered-ness and helps with focus and direction,- exactly as advertised! ✨Thank you !
Thank you Tami! It means so much to me to hear when it's working for others! yay!
That shirt is sooo adorable! And I love your glasses! They look so cute! Hugs on the move. I moved at nine months and it was soooo hard!
Love love your office! You are gonna rock Q2! Woot woot!! Love the kanban board- You have motivated me to clean my office now!!
So cute I like your clear drawers with washi tape in them.
awww your baby bump!!!!
😍😍😍
I bought the HB90 planner today! =) I have way too much love for my Happy Planner to stray too far from it, but I'm happy to incorporate your ideals into my planner.

This time, I bought galaxy/planet sticky notes (I'm a sci-fi author) and I cannot wait to start moving down my sticky planets :-)
Oh my gosh, so cute! I want to see a pic when you get them set up!
I think I am going crazy lol. I'm pretty sure I didn't dream up you having a video about the super structure plot building with the pages you made with the examples of " the disturbance, the care package, the q factor, lights out, etc" I just can't find the video.

I love your office! Sending you all the good vibes :)
I love your channel...so inspirational! 💜
Your office is goals! Quick q- what is in your 4th goal column?
The fourth goal is just personal goals, so not usually business related and not necessarily time constrained on a 90 day plan. It's stuff like personal habits I am cultivating (daily meditation or yoga), books I'm reading, and right now, lists of packing tasks for our upcoming move.
Heart Breathings love that! I think I’m going to incorporate this into my 90day planning too
Yay! I was hoping we would get to see the baby bump.
Great video. Motivated me to work on my study. Ps -LOVE your tattoo!
That was fun! Thanks for sharing.
August 26th is my birthday! i love your office!
Yay!! Maybe I'll have her on your bday!!!
I love your office, and you look beautiful! :-)
It just reminds me to clean up some time after I get out of work 😌.....mines WAY worse!!! AAHH!!!!
Love your black cabinets. Where did you get them?
They are from Home Depot! They are part of the Martha Stewart crafting furniture collection!
These washi drawers are fantastic! Where did you get those?
Aren't they pretty! I got them at Michaels! They stack on top of each other, which is great. I kind of want to get more, haha.
I love this!
I could watch you do anything! Unrelated question, how many books did you have out in e-book format only before you started doing them in print as well?
Thank you Nikki! That's so sweet to say! And I was sooo behind on paperbacks. Embarrassingly so!

Heart Breathings actually, I think that’s really a smart way of spending your time, attention, and resources.

Oh my, this is so very sweet!!!! I really appreciate this offer. I'm sincerely touched!
good idea!!
Can you do a video about making your own stickers?
Hey! Enjoy your videos! Gorgeous office! I'm looking for a good office chair and unfortunately bought one that is so uncomfy. Where did you get your office chair? Hugs & Love From South Carolina. Thanks!

When you set up your Kanban board, do you do the same steps for every book? And do you reuse the same post it notes?

What is your drink? I don't recognize the can and I'm just nosy!
It's just Harris Teeter brand seltzer water! Ever since I gave up sugar, seltzer water is my version of soda, haha.
Where did you get your flat file drawers from? I’ve been looking for some to add to my office.
This furniture is all part of the Martha Stewart craft furniture collection! I think I got it from home Depot
Heart Breathings thank you for responding! I’ll be checking it out soon!
I did not know you was with child. Such a cute little belly.
What a lot of stress and worry at a time when your so busy why didn’t u just stay there another year or buy your forever home?
We can't stay. The owners are moving back in. Buying a house as a self-employed person is a long and tedious process and we still own a home in another state, so it's just not the best time for that either. Thanks for your concern though
