Write it Down! PR Planning Secrets

Social PR Secrets by Lisa Buyer

Do you want to increase your chances of meeting your goals by 42%? Write it down!

What does your 2022 plan look like? Do you even have a written plan?

Whether you are a personal or business brand, we all need a plan.

This ‘plan’ is specifically designed for not just the year - it is your plan for each month, week, day, and hour.

It needs to be in writing.

A plan is on a real piece of paper, using a pen or pencil, one that you love.

The paper is part of a notebook you open up each day and write in like it’s your job (because it is).

There is an art and science of keeping a notebook, journal, planner. In this episode, I talk about my method to my madness of keeping a daily notebook, my past year in review, and how I am planning for 2022.

What does your planner look like? Is it digital or physical?

PR Disruptor Lessons by Ai Addyson

Try to not get overwhelmed by even the simplest of tasks, don't force yourself to do it any way but ask yourself what's the root cause so you can address the elephant in the room.

Example Affirmations

• I am exactly where I am supposed to be
• Feeling so thankful

Analysis Paralysis to Avoid

• Don’t want to write something and mess it up
• Need to just do it
• If you write it down you might actually make it happen - you are afraid of success - this is called self-sabotage.

What you can do RIGHT NOW to successfully disrupt 2022?
