Like everyone else, I look forward to every weekend so I can do the things I enjoy doing and catch up on stuff I’ve been putting off. The problem is that I always have a long list of things to do, like finishing a book, spending a few hours writing my own, brainstorming ideas for our blog, and more.
But there's so little time to fit everything into just 48 hours. People who are better at managing their time would probably scoff at me—two full days is plenty to get things done. I often read about writers waking up before dawn, and coffee in hand, using the quiet morning hours to work on their books. Others kick-start their day with a gym session, a jog or yoga before diving into their to-do lists. What you need is a strong will and determination.
This weekend, I plan to dedicate some time to researching ways to optimise social media, especially Instagram, to expand our blog’s reach and engagement. My son, a digital marketing professional, has shared some valuable ideas which I’m excited to explore. Last week, we created an account for our blog on Pinterest, and it’s already getting attention.
Meanwhile, here are some engaging ideas for the weekend.
Take the family to the local museum, go on a heritage walk or visit art galleries and book exhibitions.
Visit quaint cafes, unique neighbourhoods or traditional bazaars.
Plan last-minute getaways somewhere nearby. Short trips can be the perfect escape.
Invite friends over for a get-together and a board game night.
If you’re inclined, you can declutter your digital life. Organise your email inbox, delete unused apps and photos, and rearrange your desktop or phone folders. I suspect that most of us don't have the time or inclination for this on workdays.
