Let's dive into a fun exercise an exercise that you can do to visualize your ideal week. What is that, we find that trying to visualize your ideal Day is a little bit difficult because if you are working them either 80 of your time is spent at work. And if you are in the weekend, and you have a lot of time for hobbies, but if you're looking at a week, a week includes a weekend, and includes your work days, so you will have a little bit more of time to plan, a little bit of activities to nurture every ingredient. So we have a couple of examples here. The first example that you see is a working mom. We just had a client and this was her idea week.
She had specific responsibilities that she needed to take care of. And then she used different colors. As you can see, there is like a light blue and that's a part time work that she's doing. And then she does that on Tuesdays and Thursdays mornings and then Wednesday evenings and then she has another different tasks with different Call us alone the week. So this is great, because the first thing that that she did was, let's put the things that you have to do every week, permanently there. Once those things are in, then we can start seeing, okay, what kind of work were you planning on doing?
When are you available, and now you can start creating doubt week. And if you understand yourself, and you know that you need to exercise maybe three times a week, then we can make our best to try and incorporate that in your schedule to either in the morning or in the evening. If you really need a lot of family time, we have to make sure that maybe in the weekend, you'll get there. So once you understand yourself, we are trying to create these to fit your specific needs. Another example that we have here is a person who works nine to five. Again, the first thing that we did is nine to five, you are at work, if you need to commute you have to account for that time, right?
And then whatever time is left, that's when we can start getting creative about Okay, what do you need to do during the week Do you have any other responsibilities? What kind of activities? Would you want to go to the gym? Do you need to cook meals? Do you need to go to a specific group or activity that you like doing? And then what are you doing on the weekend.
So doing this exercise is really helpful because first helps you become aware of what's happening, the things that you have to do, and the amount of time left that you have. And also, it's a great exercise for you to see what realistically you can include in your week. And then if you can't include everything that you want, that's when you have to prioritize. And I think it's a very powerful exercise that will give you a lot of control is not going to be perfect from day one. But again, it's a system that you will need to tweak but it's a really powerful exercise. We invite you to print the thing that we have at that's below and then try to put in there your idea week.
I can share with you that when Samantha brought this exercise to me, it took me a couple of weeks to do it. The first time that I was kind of upset, and I didn't understand why, but she was also upset with me because I was upset and, and I told her like, just give me a little bit of time because I don't know why I can't do this exercise, I was having a really hard time. And I realized that my problem was that I didn't want to commit to a lot of things, I didn't really know a lot. So I was forcing myself to get out of my comfort zone. But after I did the exercise, I think it was really good. And again, it's not going to be perfect, and it's going to be changing every week, but you are aiming for something.
And that's what's important. You are trying to aim for something that you really love. If you get 60% of that it's better than if you get 40% or if you don't know anything. So that's why I think is really important to have a target because once you have a target, you can aim to something and that's going to help you have a way better week. So I hope you enjoyed this exercise and we will see you in the next video.
