Get it done day 1st May 2025

Is it time to move some tasks from to do to done? Then a Get it done day is just what you need.

Are you doing everything other than the ‘thing’?

I came across this in an email from James Clear but the credit really belongs to ‘Loopy’

“Things that aren’t doing the thing:

• Preparing to do the thing isn’t doing the thing.
• Scheduling time to do the thing isn’t doing the thing.
• Making a to-do list for the thing isn’t doing the thing.
• Telling people you’re going to do the thing isn’t doing the thing.
• Messaging friends who may or may not be doing the thing isn’t doing the thing.
• Writing a banger tweet about how you’re going to do the thing isn’t doing the thing.
• Hating on yourself for not doing the thing isn’t doing the thing.
• Hating on other people who have done the thing isn’t doing the thing.
• Hating on the obstacles in the way of doing the thing isn’t doing the thing.
• Fantasizing about all of the adoration you’ll receive once you do the thing isn’t doing the thing.
• Reading about how to do the thing isn’t doing the thing.
• Reading about how other people did the thing isn’t doing the thing.
• Reading this essay isn’t doing the thing.

The only thing that is doing the thing is doing the thing.”

If you need help to do the ‘thing’ join us for a Get it done day. We don’t just talk and plan we get things done.

The get it done day’s structure

We start with an intention setting call at 9.30, check in with calls at 12.00 and 2.30 and finish the day with a celebration of success call at 5.00. Each call allows you to report progress and get advice, opinions or ideas.

We’ve had people develop training courses, talks, presentations and marketing material. Others have worked on tax returns, planning documents and blogs. The choice is yours. Some work on routine tasks others work on business development.

The people who achieve most are the ones who make all the calls but if that doesn’t work for you, you are welcome to skip a call or join us for just a part of the day.

Free to members

Get it done days are a member benefit for Fabulous Networkers, but non-members are welcome to sample one free of charge after which each event costs £10.

Numbers are limited to 10 so we can give everyone the support they want without spending all day talking. These sessions always take place on the same link, so members often drop in without booking if space is available.

N.B. Occasionally we change the timing of calls to suit attendees so if you are planning to join us, especially for later calls it’s a good idea to let me know (glenda@fabulousnetworking.co.uk) and on the rare occasions when no-one is booked for the first call it might not happen if you don’t tell me you’re coming.
