I am SO glad to meet someone else who is "not a planner person" and who struggles with organization & deadlines and such. Thank you! Amazing how we still manage to get things done in our own idiosyncratic ways, isn't it?!
This is great for me and my daughter,cause she takes after me for needing visual reminders. Moving the chores when done is so satisfying idea. Keep up the good work.
Thank you for being so honest about not being a planner! So many YT mommies seem so perfect! It's awful for us mommies who suck at planning! Love the info!
I think that 15 minute morning routine is so key! Well said! Once that habit is established it doesn't even feel like something you have to schedule in. :)
If I plan things at night that helps a ton. I write in my family planner that's sectioned off by meal planning, grocery lists, my daughter preschool curriculum and family monthly calendar. Also, If my kids bring a date home from school, I have to write it down as soon as they bring it home then I generally won't forget because I look at my schedule at night. I need to do that EVERY night!
I love your honesty. I am using Cozi app and my husband and I love it. Ever since we got this application on our phone (I'm not a tech person, more a writing things down person) we have been more synchronized and been able to accomplish tasks together. It is accessible from any device so if I leave my phone at home, I can always check out his phone. Also, when you are setting up your appointments you have the option of setting up a reminder as well so I am always sure to set the reminder at a moment that I know I will be able to plan the appointment into the next day or into the next week. I hope this helps. Also, after I have like 10 to do lists lying around, I always make sure to consolidate the list and remove duplicates into the "To do" LIst section of Cozi. I am able to throw the lists always after reviewing them and mark things off knowing that I have been able to tackle a few items since the last time I looked at my list.
oh and I love the clock idea. I think I'll implement that for my boys so they can organize their day and manage their time better too.... brilliant Cass!
wow i love that idea. i needed this. i work five jobs and i am worse then u at time management. and im a minimalist. do this works for me. you have no idea how much i needed this this morning. thank you so much. love your channel. it helps me with my OCPD and ADD. so thanks again. smile always.
I am horrible at time management, without the alarms on my phone, which I use from 5a.m. to 11p.m. Daily, I would fail at life. I love the clock idea for my grandchildren though. I am totally doing this. Thank you so much!
You have a wonderfully personable way of presenting your ideas/solutions. I especially like the board idea: In progress,etc. That is how I work also. I wanted to compliment you also on your appearance also, you look healthier and glow now. You kept my attention, without being "perfect", and that's hard to do. I work outside the home and care -take my mom's home and so I'm very busy and I have a limited attention span. Your tips are helpful and practical
OMG!!!!! AMEN! I am the exact same way with time management! I am OCD when I use my planner, but I find myself only filling it out (color coded with tape, for individual things, for our BIG, active family) maybe, 4 times a year... It's pitiful. I watch you every chance I get! I love watching and taking your tips!
i recently came across your videos just by chance. i have to say its so refreshing to aee someone whos REAL and not fake and whom pretends to be all prim proper and perfect at time management etc etc...so refreshing ans youre quite funny too so keep up the good work :) i look forward to pcking up some tips from u :)
You rock girl! Thanks for this, I'm the same way. planners aren't my thing either, I need a visionary board for day to day tasks. I need to see what I have to do out in the open and then work from the easiest to thr hardest this way I feel like I get more done. Then when I lay my children down for a nap I them call to make dr. appointments and do thr mopping sweeping, dusting and washing down windows and mirrors ect. I also set a timer and give myself certain times to get things done in when I'm up this way I am also getting my cardiovascular in as I work and clean my home... I also make sure to make it a little fun for me and by sitting thr timer I try to beat my old times, the things that we do to keep ourselves entertained as a stay at home mom, last but not least since I know how much time that I have before thr girls wake up from their naps, I know that by setting a timer and getting things done into time zones, I also know that I have such and such a time for my shower and I bust butt trying to be able to jump in and relax a little and I also know that if I get things done 10 extra minutes early that I have that much times to relax in the water or to shave my legs ect. but this is what works for me. love this video.
Love the clock thing! I've never seen that before. My oldest just started Kindergarten and my youngest is in her 1st year of preschool so I don't yet know what my clock should look like, but I'll have to keep that in mind and try to keep track. I also love your permanent list at the end of the video. I might have to copy it, lol!
I put in my weekly calendar the time I have to leave the house for doctors appointments. Also on my wall calendar for the whole family. Then I set a timer to go off at that time in the morning. Kathy B.
I love the clock idea. I like planners but I'll not use it when for weeks at at time because my routines are pretty well established. I feel like I'm being wasteful. I'm going to try a bullet journal for its flexibility.
Thank you thank you thank you. I just recently became a stay at home mom and your videos have been sooooo helpful. You are a rockstar. I'm trying to find the courage to vlog buttttttt I think I'll leave that to pro's such as yourself. Again thank for always sharing these amazing gifts of inspiration. 😄
Omg! I'm so glad I found you because I'm horrible with time management, keeping my house together and very visual! I ordered your book and can't WAIT to finally find what works for me! Blessings!
Hello gorgeous! I always appreciate your honesty and creativity! I am a planner and journal junkie but love the idea of the large to do list with sticky notes. 💓 Laura
I loved your post it board. I am visual, too, and that would work great for me. I wanted to mention something I saw a while back that is so simple but I love... try peeling your post it notes from the side instead of pulling them from the bottom, it will keep them from sticking up like that and they will be flat!! :) Loved the clock idea!
I came here from Happilyahousewives video! Im still trying to find a planning system to! I can't find a planner, that has room for daily to dos and time slots that start before 6am and ends at least 11pm! But i love your to do list! I think i'll give it a go! Loved this video! I have subscribed, and am excited to binge watch!
Great ideas ,thanks..I notice the 21 item toss on your weekly list.would you mind filming them.loved it when we watched you race about your home with bags on your arm.such inspiring fun to watch.
I take a picture of the appointment cards for doctors or events. I am always forgetting about my planner and I always misplace everything but my phone.
Great tips. I'm a very visual person, too. If I don't see it on the calendar or fridge, I forget about it. If I'm helping my kids with homework, I need to read something for myself, rather than have them read it to me. (The first part of your video when you were talking about not being good at planners reminded me of Emmet's speech in the Lego Movie about not being qualified to lead the others. lol)
Thank you for sharing and being real! I feel like less if a freak knowing I'm not the only o e who struggles this way. Thank you thank you! God Bless you!
Cass I've tried so many planners too and they just weren't working for me but in our dollar type store I found a mid yr academic day on a page planner it's just a bit bigger than a phone it's so easy to carry around and jot down my to do list and appointments I'm loving it all my fancy planners were either to big or bulky so they'd get left at home so when you need it it was a home this little planner is ideal for me happy I got it for less than 2 dollars one euro fifty cents you can't go wrong!
Thank you soooooo much for sharing all this great info I totally need stuff like this so I can manage my time! I definitely needed help in this area lol.So I loved this video thank you so much hope y'all have a great weekend bye for now 😀
I have to have something visually in front of me for me to remember but I still utilize my planner to really map out my week and month. I set a time each week to meal plan and see what appointments I have plus I decorate my planner so it doesn't feel like such a chore. I then take a picture of my planner with my phone so I can look at it on my phone without having to scramble for my planner.
I do best with a weekly printout with Outlook. I post it on the wall & write in what comes up but try to add regular events on the computer on Sun night.
I tried an organizer but 1) I would forget to actually look in it and 2) I'd lose it. I got a few white boards and cork boards from the dollar store and put them in my kitchen so I see it multiple times a day and it works so much better.
HI love your honesty! 😂 I suck the most at time management as well. I tried that planner thing too. . . I just had to learn to use my phone but yes I still struggle with remembering to set the alarm ahead as well. Kids going back to school helped get me back on track. I love your ideas I may have to try them. I'm very visual so maybe the action to do system will work for me?
Hi Cass, I just left Sam's channel great collab! You are so right...you must know what works for you in order to be and stay organized. I am totally a planner girl...don't think I would survive with out her...yes my planner is a (her)...I call her the boss 😄. I so love that clock idea!
Love this Cass! you are my spirit animal. ;-) I missed this in my feed probably because I saw time manage ment and I went "ewwwwww!!!!" LOL. I think getting it as criticism over the years " has poor time management skills" has turned it into a cuss word. Not into planners. The simple fact I need to open it is a big problem for me. Outta site outta mind. I write everything on my calendar. Starting to color code by people now because since school started became a bit crazy. Will definitely try to incorporate some of the methods that work for you. Love all the visuals you use.!!!
also, plan the night before. i forget my calendar. you may want to try cozi callendar. and flylady.net has a version of cozi. cozi is an app and online. you can include reminders as you schedule either email and device based. This is useful to me because I get distracted getting ready and run late. I use device notifications on my tablet at a loud beep.
I discovered it at work, that planning before I left work helped me to tidy up and have the next day's work ready to go. So it made sense to apply it at home. But at that point my planner/diary stayed put after diligently filling it in for January. So my mind would be racing with everything to do that day before my feet hit the floor. And my kids wondered why I was a grumpy bum in the morning. I bought the "right" diary in July/August and while I refer to it a little more frequently I still struggle with saving myself time in being a good planner. If I know what day of the week it is I'm doing well. Love the clock and the to do list. Humidity here makes sticky notes look like square confetti attacked the floor. 🙁
Interesting never seen that clock idea before. I tend to write my to-do list the night before, because I'll forget everything in the morning or be to groggy or be too overwhelmed on how to prioiritize them. I sometimes use a planner, but the majority of the time I just keep writing to-do lists and keep lists on my Google Keep.
Im currently a stay at home dad with a 5yo small guy and 2 yo princess. I am actually not an average guy who doesnt care much about time and cleaning but having kids who are all over the place all the time with their clutters is very challenging. I couldn't even touch my review materials for my nclex exam. I meed a more structured time table.
You're looking awesome Cass. Congratulations!!! I wanted to suggest the app "Trello". It's the same system you're using but on the phone. You can also set reminders with the app and best of all, it's free. I use it and I love it.
I am redoing my office and I am going to try these tips!! My housewife life has changed dramatically recently so I'm looking for new organization ideas :)
Hi, OMG you are describing me.. I love it seeing how I can change my attempts at being organised and copy you. One thing I am using the sticky note system, but mine keep falling off, do you have a brand that you have found is really good and restickabe or has a good temporarily adhesive
I'm totally a planner person, but it doesn't necessarily mean that those items will be done LOL. It's mainly for keeping track of important dates. I also have a separate planner for the household finances. My memory is not the best, so I need to record these items somewhere, and I don't like using my phone to plan. But remember, Cass, you're a person just like us. You already know the important things that need to be done with your kids and household. Don't be so hard on yourself! :-)
Hi Cas!! You're looking Great!! But yea I'm a visual person for me it's out of sight and out of mind. Tried everything planners and binders I don't look at it everyday. I'm So Bad I need help in that department. But Thank You for sharing your ideas love your videos.😉👍
I have ADHD and planners do not work. For work I keep a large calendar on my desk for visual reminders. I set alarms and alerts in my calendar. I have to do that as soon as I know I have to do something. If not, it won’t happen. I take pictures of flyers etc because I miss details when reading them.
I am not a planner person either. I tried it and didn't help me. However I like to mark down important dates on the calendar on my fridge it works for me. 👍
The post it board is suuuuuch a great idea!!! My time management is not that great. I can be organized but I have a hard time paying attention to the actual time 😩
Classic example of different things working for different people. That board would never work for me, I have this amazing ability to block unwanted things from my view and I can definitely see myself blocking this board. A planner on the other hand? I can't live without it. Honestly though I used to be really bad about using my planner but I forced myself to set aside a few minutes each day to not only write in it but mark things of as well. It took way to long to get the hang of it but I did and will never go back. I'm working on my morning and night cleaning routines now.
I am a stay at home mom, with only my husbands income but I was looking to start bringing in some extra income but I have no desire to get a job outside of home. Since I will be with my daughter & homeschooling.. Do you have any idea what jobs I could do as a stay at home mom/wife
This is the freakin best hahaha I love this! I am so similar, and these tips seem like things I could ACTUALLY do! Thanks so much for doing this video! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Do you know any bloggers who can share tips to keep twins from turning the house upside down? That's my BIGGEST challenge. They take out ALL their toys and spread them over the home in minutes. 😖. I spend a lot of energy and time RE-doing what I already did the night before
Gricelda Leon my house was cleaner when mine was younger bc I made picking up and age appropriate chores fun. I think the basket idea is a good idea bc at home rotation sometimes won't work I made sure mine knew what room the toys stayed in and when they are done u just have them grab a basket (one for each w name or color coordinated) to pick up their mess like a game of who can do it the fastest lol it worked for me until they get older they figure out that its not fun...at the end of the day have a prize bag I did one for cleanest room and best behavior if they are both good they can both get a sticker or candy or both :)
Gricelda Leon A good idea is to tell them it's snack time (or whatever they like a lot) then say until you pickup the toys (you might have to show them where/how a few times) They will then be motivated to clean and it is fun!
Gricelda Leon And only clean when the day is over. Why clean all day when you can play with them! It is going to be messy anyways and teach them to help by what I said in the other post. It will get easier. I have a twin sister Jenny who cleaned up after me for years poor thang! I feel bad about it now. Good Luck!
I am SO glad to meet someone else who is "not a planner person" and who struggles with organization & deadlines and such. Thank you! Amazing how we still manage to get things done in our own idiosyncratic ways, isn't it?!

I've tried the planner thing to and I really do best with making new list through the day or for each day. I like the 3 tier board!
I am such a visual person also! I LOVED your tips!! The clock GENIUS!!!! Great tips Cas!!
I feel your pain with time management. Great tips. ❤️
i recently came across your videos just by chance. i have to say its so refreshing to aee someone whos REAL and not fake and whom pretends to be all prim proper and perfect at time management etc etc...so refreshing ans youre quite funny too so keep up the good work :)
i look forward to pcking up some tips from u :)
You rock girl! Thanks for this, I'm the same way. planners aren't my thing either, I need a visionary board for day to day tasks.

I SUCK at being a planner person too. But what I do is put it in my calendar and put an alert for the day before. Good luck Mama!
Great tips! I love the board idea with the movable sticky notes. Great video and you look great!
I Love the visual to-do board! It will be great for the family. I forget about my to-do list on my phone all the time.
I put in my weekly calendar the time I have to leave the house for doctors appointments. Also on my wall calendar for the whole family.

Love the white board and sticky note idea!!!
Thank you for sharing and being so honest!!!! loved it!!!
I love the clock idea. I like planners but I'll not use it when for weeks at at time because my routines are pretty well established. I feel like I'm being wasteful. I'm going to try a bullet journal for its flexibility.

I can't play Samantha video, says private.
Hi, OMG you are describing me.. I love it seeing how I can change my attempts at being organised and copy you. One thing I am using the sticky note system, but mine keep falling off, do you have a brand that you have found is really good and restickabe or has a good temporarily adhesive
look into "bullet journal" ... might help the planner situation :) ... it's been a life changer for me
great collaboration. both videos are fabulous.😍
I am just like you ... lol... I am horrible in getting things done . I will try to do this . thanks for sharing .
Great as always! Wonderful tips! Thanks!!
Great job. I love the colors of your couch and pillows. :-)
You’re so funny! First video I’ve watched on your channel, thanks for the tips!
I'm totally a planner person, but it doesn't necessarily mean that those items will be done LOL. It's mainly for keeping track of important dates. I also have a separate planner for the household finances. My memory is not the best, so I need to record these items somewhere, and I don't like using my phone to plan. But remember, Cass, you're a person just like us. You already know the important things that need to be done with your kids and household. Don't be so hard on yourself! :-)
Omg I love this yeah I’ve hundreds of productive apps that have not worked out 🤣 think I will try this
Hi Cas!! You're looking Great!! But yea I'm a visual person for me it's out of sight and out of mind. Tried everything planners and binders I don't look at it everyday. I'm So Bad I need help in that department. But Thank You for sharing your ideas love your videos.😉👍
I have ADHD and planners do not work. For work I keep a large calendar on my desk for visual reminders. I set alarms and alerts in my calendar. I have to do that as soon as I know I have to do something. If not, it won’t happen. I take pictures of flyers etc because I miss details when reading them.
I just found your channel and let me just say, I can totally relate to u! New subbie
I am not a planner person either. I tried it and didn't help me. However I like to mark down important dates on the calendar on my fridge it works for me. 👍
I have a bullet journal. It is not fancy, it is not colorful, but it WORKS for me!
The post it board is suuuuuch a great idea!!! My time management is not that great. I can be organized but I have a hard time paying attention to the actual time 😩
Looks like your doing good in the weight loss! Keep going Cass!!!
"You have a doctors appointment RIGHT FRICKIN NOW!!!!" - oh I laughed so hard! That is so me! 😆
love your videos!!
How did you color the clock times
As always great stuff😀
not watched for a while , you are looking so slim! Well done!
Classic example of different things working for different people. That board would never work for me, I have this amazing ability to block unwanted things from my view and I can definitely see myself blocking this board. A planner on the other hand? I can't live without it. Honestly though I used to be really bad about using my planner but I forced myself to set aside a few minutes each day to not only write in it but mark things of as well. It took way to long to get the hang of it but I did and will never go back. I'm working on my morning and night cleaning routines now.
I tried bullet journal.... now i dont know where it is.....
lol...So me!
I am a stay at home mom, with only my husbands income but I was looking to start bringing in some extra income but I have no desire to get a job outside of home. Since I will be with my daughter & homeschooling.. Do you have any idea what jobs I could do as a stay at home mom/wife
This is the freakin best hahaha I love this! I am so similar, and these tips seem like things I could ACTUALLY do! Thanks so much for doing this video! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Ok ok ok I took you tips and made a schedule for myself for today and set alarms in my phone for each one and it WORKED!!!!! Thank you!!
Wow you look great Cass!!
What is "all out of" on your fridge
thanks cas! great as usual :)
Do you know any bloggers who can share tips to keep twins from turning the house upside down? That's my BIGGEST challenge. They take out ALL their toys and spread them over the home in minutes. 😖. I spend a lot of energy and time RE-doing what I already did the night before
Toy rotation is a life saver!
Gricelda Leon my house was cleaner when mine was younger bc I made picking up and age appropriate chores fun. I think the basket idea is a good idea bc at home rotation sometimes won't work I made sure mine knew what room the toys stayed in and when they are done u just have them grab a basket (one for each w name or color coordinated) to pick up their mess like a game of who can do it the fastest lol it worked for me until they get older they figure out that its not fun...at the end of the day have a prize bag I did one for cleanest room and best behavior if they are both good they can both get a sticker or candy or both :)
Gricelda Leon
A good idea is to tell them it's snack time (or whatever they like a lot) then say until you pickup the toys (you might have to show them where/how a few times) They will then be motivated to clean and it is fun!
Gricelda Leon
And only clean when the day is over. Why clean all day when you can play with them! It is going to be messy anyways and teach them to help by what I said in the other post. It will get easier. I have a twin sister Jenny who cleaned up after me for years poor thang! I feel bad about it now. Good Luck!
