I hadn't until today either. Of course I have heard of her but not being a TV viewer I wasn't aware of her program for mentoring SHE's (Sidetracked Home Executives).
I think that is probably all of us to some extent or other. I am certainly not the worst home executive but I still generally suffer from CHAOS (Can't Have Anyone Over Syndrome).
So today I met Flylady .
You should too.
She will start you off with polishing your sink and tying your shoe laces and continue by sending heaps of emails every day with baby steps and pep talks until you have mastered the routine of FLYing (Finally Loving Yourself).Yes there will be advertising spiel but you can easily delete that and stick with all the good stuff.
Apparently it normally takes 21 days to learn a habit but with Flylady it will take 28 days. I'm not sure on the after-that time but I think the encouragement continues in the form of monthly and weekly zone tackling.
It all sounds great and easy because she stresses baby steps. Just 15 minutes or even 3 lots of 5 minutes are all that is required for most things. That is the sort of help I need because sufferers of depression often find it hard to be motivated and that is what you get from a mentor. (Of course, if you are a rebel it is probably a waste of your time because you know you don't like being told what to do and so won't.)
I have already polished my sink. I'm just not sure about the shoes - I'm really a barefoot person - but she says they are totally important. Maybe thongs?!!
