Crafting Your Creative Blueprint for 2025

Have you ever found yourself stuck on a project, once burning with passion, now collecting dust? Oh, trust me, I’ve been there! It's like one of those long-back-burner projects that feels overwhelming to restart. As the new year rolled in with shiny new resolutions, excitement was a bit M.I.A for me. On Boxing Day, my planning session ended in NOTHING. But here's where things get interesting—I thought maybe, just maybe this is where AI could help. Let’s jump into how I turned 2025 into the Year of Finishing.

Here at Creative Life in Motion Podcast, where happiness isn’t a destination—it’s in the journey. Today, it’s all about planning for success in 2025. Grab your pens, friends, and let’s spill some secrets I’ve picked up along the way—and I promise, they’re actionable. More than just talking about scheduling and tracking, I’ll share how I crafted a plan using perplexity to guide my next book.

Breaking Free from Overwhelm

In 2024, like many of us, I fell into the "over-plan trap." Too many goals, too little time! But here’s the deal: sometimes it’s not about giving up; it’s about reassessing and trimming down. So, 2025 is my Year of Finishing. I’m focusing on trackable, actionable success without judgment and with plenty of self-kindness.

Goodbye Over-planning, Hello Focus!

Three topics unplugged my overwhelming list: Mind, Purpose, and Body. Less is more, I discovered. Cutting out social media’s endless scroll freed up my brain space. Considering a year-long break from Facebook and Instagram? It's under consideration.

I realized showing up is only half the battle. Planning and executing are what result in actual progress. And yes, cutting the noise meant limiting mentors. Pick a couple, focus there, and become your own guide. What would Future You do? Stick to the plan!

Reigniting the Writing Flame

Two unfinished books sat on my desk, sighing heavily. While planning is crucial, half the struggle is executing. So, I whipped out my trusty spreadsheet and had perplexity step in. Perplexity listened, recalibrated my schedule, and asked the right questions, making planning personal. After all, one size does not fit all when it comes to creativity!

Adjusting my calendar helped move things from "plan" to "process," allowing unexpected moments to play along. This year, I've mapped it out with cross-platform reminders to keep me accountable. And the results? Watch this space—I’ll be documenting the journey.

A Journey, Not Just a Destination

Perplexity became an unexpected ally in my creative journey, surprising me with fresh clarity. So, if you're feeling overwhelmed about projects, give it a whirl. It's not just about the tools; it's about highlighting the steps needed to move forward.
