Resource: My Magical GAANT Chart
Turn big, squishy goals into specific tasks and timelines
In 2023, I got serious about incorporating more writing into my work and life.
However, I quickly found that longing to do something and actually making it real require two very different states of being....
The longing state involves dreams, visions, and creativity.
The "make it real" state involves grit, gumption, and GAANT charts.
Lord, I do love a good GAANT chart.
I'm sharing my "Writing Launch Plan" GAANT chart here for anyone curious about how I'm working to make this dream a reality. This magical spreadsheet keeps my head on straight. It tells me what's most important to prioritize now and next, and what can wait for an even later time.
Dreams don't come true overnight. I'm taking it day by day, doing what I can, when I can.
I hope this tool helps you transport your big fuzzy dreams to the land of the concrete.
P.S. I did not create this GAANT chart template from scratch. I came across it a long, long time ago in an internet galaxy far, far away and that is all I can remember. Credit and gratitude goes to some anonymous soul out there.
Ooooooooohhhhhh that GAANT girl!
Thanks for letting us see behind the curtain!!
