Does anyone enjoy being busy? I know I don’t, but I will do what I need to keep sane, during those busy days. I own multiple businesses and there are some things I do to help crush those busy days that I may have. Stay tuned because some of these ideas may help you in your own life!
Wake up early
Do you want to know how I crush a busy day? I wake up early. This has been a key component in helping me keep things in order in my day. I wake up around 5 AM and start the coffee pot. From there I get in a little exercise and start breakfast. If you have a lot to get done in a day, try waking up early and see how that helps you get your day moving easier.
Start the Work Day with a Plan
The first thing I do for work is write my lists! I use a happy planner to tack the main life things, as well as important client tasks. I also use a bullet journal to organize my day by task and by time! I love using both of these types of planners because they let me be a little creative (hello fun stickers and colorful markers), and totally organized!
Eat healthy throughout the day
I know we all have our moments, but eating healthy really does help you. When you eat a healthier snack, rather than grabbing junk, you’re going to function better. When I eat complete junk, I am sluggish and don’t feel well. Eating healthy has been a major way I crush those busy days.
Take a deep breath
What is the point in being busy if you don’t take time to enjoy life? I make it a point every day to stop what I’m doing, take a deep breath, and enjoy life. My pups and hubby deserve me at my very best. If I’m always on the go and not stopping to enjoy life, then I’m not doing my best.
Focus on Your “Why”
When I have a busy day, I really try and focus on my why. Why am I doing this? Is it helping me get to where I am? Focusing on my why throughout those busy days really does help me get through. Give it a try!

Stock up on ZonePerfect® protein bars
Have you ever wanted something quick and easy to grab while on the go? I like to keep ZonePerfect® protein bars on hand. These have been little life savers for my busy life. I have learned that these bars can also help me stay focused and on track. Instead of grabbing something unhealthy, I can grab one of these. More protein is always a good thing, especially when you’re busy and trying to focus. With these bars, I can have the energy to take on the day and I don’t think I can ask for anything more from a delicious protein bar. I pair mine with some fruit to help make my snack time or meal time even more complete. My favorite is the Chocolate Peanut Butter ones and I get mine at Walmart, so be sure to grab your own ZonePerfect® protein bars the next time you are there!
Look at all these yummy bars you can pick up at Walmart.
- ZonePerfect® Cinnamon Roll, 5ct
- ZonePerfect® Fudge Graham, 5ct
- ZonePerfect® Chocolate Mint, 5ct
- ZonePerfect® Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough, 5ct
- ZonePerfect® Dark Chocolate Almond, 5ct
With juggling everything in my life (businesses, family, pets, etc.), I can celebrate Little Wins™. I can stick the ZonePerfect® protein bars in my purse or eat it while I’m going out the door. Crush a busy day and Celebrate Little Wins in your life every chance you get!

ZonePerfect bars are perfect for grabbing and taking with you on the good. There is no reason to have to resort to unhealthy snacks. Can I just say I am obsessed with your planner! So pretty! Thank you for offering those stickers. I feel like I would be inspired to use my planner if it looked so pretty.
Lisa Favre says
First and foremost, those printable stickers are just so cute! I am huge on agendas and organizing my time, so those are printables that I truly do appreciate. ZonePerfect seems like an interesting snack – especially when I’m busy. So I’ll definitely have to try it out.
Censie Sawyer says
Great tips. I am totally going to use those stickers. Now that I work from home full time I really have to stay focused. I use a planner every day and make a ton of lists. That is what helps me crush it!
Jenn says
These are great tips. I really could use the stickers. That is a good idea. I often have trouble focusing and remembering tasks. I am so easily distracted. I know that making lists works for me. I would be a mess without my lists.
Melanie says
Your planner looks a lot like mine. I have so many appointments jotted down and stickers that it is crazy. We definitely have to celebrate those little ones when we can.
Kimberly @ Berly's Kitchen says
Wow! You must be super organized. 🙂 I really like your planner and the printable stickers. It’s great that you are able to find time to exercise and eat healthy! Zone Perfect definitely comes in handy. By the way, I didn’t know they made a cinnamon roll flavor. Yum!!
NYC Single Mom says

Cacinda says
I love the printable! It’s great for all planners and can fit each person’s needs! I am always looking for new bars to try and they look delicious to try! I need to grab a few!
liz Cleland says
I am all about some organization, a little pick me up bar and Walmart! I could get so much done if those are all I had to worry about in a day! Lovely stationary too
Bites for Foodies says
I’m such a typeA person and it amazes how I still don’t have a planner like this one!! I could sit and look at these all day when I’m in the store. I think I’m secretly scared that if I buy I’m going to become obsessed!
Ali Rost says
I live and die by my planner. Over the years I’ve tried online versions, but always come back to my pen and paper version. For me, when it comes to getting things done, the Pomodoro Technique has been invaluable. I set my timer for 25 minutes and do nothing else but the task in front of me. Then I take a 5 minute break. It’s amazing what I’m able to get accomplished when I truly focus! x
