Life is so complicated. From paying the bills to making the grade at work we are constantly judged by ourselves and others. In this world it is helpful to break all your stress down into smaller, bite-sized chunks. I find it useful to categorize my “do-list” into three categories. For my blogs that make money, I use the CAN acronym standing for “Circulation, Analytics, and Net.”
This has proven extremely effective in reducing stress and keeping me focused. At my teaching job, I have broken down my weekly tasks into another acronym: MAP, “Measure, Assemble, and Plan.” It’s acronyms like this that can turn great ideas and locations into franchise opportunities, even in a public school classroom! Remember you are inspiring the future and that’s an awesome opportunity. What is causing you stress today? Why not get a yellow pad out and create three columns. You’re the expert, the only limitation is in your mind.
