My job isn't hectic, doesn't need too much work. There are days that i do plan for a daily activity when it is only needed. For example, when i have a meeting. The day before the meeting i make a memo or note of to-do-list for that day. And i do also have daily plan when i have seminars to attend. But then in the usual day, i just go with the flow.

that's good. at least your work does not control your daily routine. that's a healthy routine to follow.

I usually have my day planned out with my housework and my Bible study and prayer time, and also for my exercise time. I try to get this through and done with before my husband gets home so I can spend as much time as I can with him.

I usually plan my business day but the rest of my life is pretty much on the fly. We don't go out a whole lot and prefer to stay in doors this time of year, instead of freezing our buns off out side. In the summer time we are a little more stuctured and make plans to do things, just not so much in the winter time.

yeah, i heard it's been very cold these days in some countries. i guess during these days, it's nice to just stay home and relax.

My daily activities are always the same. make bottles Clean up the house and sometimes pick up my partner from work. every friday we go out shopping. and every weekend we go and see my partners parent. so you could say i plan ahead. But some days i just get up and go out. as i am sick of being at home all day everyday.

yeah, when everyday is always routinary, it gets pretty boring sometimes. being a bit spontaneous wouldn't hurt. thanks.

I like to have a plan. If I don't have a plan I end up doing nothing. (like right now for example!) I am a stay at home mom so if I don't plan my days I have no structure at all. I don't ever have to be somewhere at a set time. No deadlines, no goals. Just me and the kids. If I want something productive out of my day I need to plan it. Ashley

I usually plan my day and work hard to implement my plan.Its easy to get a plan and chart it out but it is really difficult to implement the plan for the best.

i agree, it's sometimes easier to implement something if you plan things out ahead. but sometimes, it can be fun to be spontaneous in some things.

By nature, I tend to prefer things to be more flexible and spontaneous. I'm one of those people who starts feeling constricted and overbooked if I schedule too many things in advance. I want the freedom to take a road trip, sleep in, decide I want to reorganize an entire room and just do it, or spend a day writing now and then. Life doesn't always work like that though. I tend to end up scheduling some of my "free time" with social activities and chores, but leaving some days and times open to do whatever I want. At work, I pretty much have to schedule everything down to the minute whether I want to or not in order to keep on top of everything.

i can relate. i'm pretty much the same. i don't really plan my day. but sometimes there is a need to especially when there are important things to do.

I usually like to have at least some of my day planned out as it gives me motivation to get out of bed in the morning and gives me something positive to thing about when I get up. If I know a friend is coming round, I don't have to plan the whole day as knowing I'm going to be doing something is good enough.

"it gives memotivation to get out of bed in the morning" that's a nice thought. thanks for sharing.
