NordenBladet – Today I have bought myself a new calendar memo „2018″ and had to admit that my notebooks expand year after year. There was a time when I wondered what do people need 2x A4 calendar memos for, those that boldly display the entire week – and today I find myself thinking that this is exactly what I need. I managed to acquire a slightly smaller version (yet huge!) and hope to get by with it during 2018. I find it pleasant when everything is in ink, black and white – I am very conservative from this aspect – I like to see things on paper. I like it when I can quickly scribble down the useful notes, turn the pages and hear the sound of it.
The event planner is my great friend! I downright like my memo book – nice and big with green leather cover, voluminous friend. Keeps in mind all that it has to! Haha… I have spent many an hour rewriting the notes from all the separate pieces of paper and the corners of pages to the proper place and copy the important memos from the previous notebook. Yet now it is done and I have the synopsis of the coming year in front of my eyes. Regarding the memo book I came up with several ideas:
1. Since the classic reader of NordenBladet is a 45+ wealthy and successful Scandinavian woman and the typical OHMYGOSSIP-pages reader is a 32-48 years of age adventurous woman with higher education, then the following year I would like to come up with a special planner journal for a business and travel minded woman. This would be a voluminous, solid, quality, reliable piled-with-information friend for the year 2019. I have an abundance of exciting ideas that no planner journal in this world yet includes!
2. Via the NordenBladet pages bring together the Scandinavian events’ organisers and the readers. At the moment I am working on a system in the NordenBladet.com environment to effectively attain that goal. Whenever you come up with great ideas and suggestions, drop me an email, while your opinion, dear reader, is most important for me in this process!
I have filled in the slots in the schedule very tightly, at times even with double events, so that it would take a decision which one to prefer or whether to authorize someone to assist me in some duties. NordenBladet and OHMYGOSSIP sites are attending various worldwide fairs and conferences and since we network with very many tourism bureaus and tourism ministries and reflect on various travel destinations and the cultural events in those countries, then a large proportion of the time is swallowed by travel. Apart from travelling and conveying news abroad a substantial amount in my personal planner is reserved for secondments in Estonia-Finland-Sweden, a lot of meetings with cooperation partners and advertising clients.
In addition to NordenBladet and OHMYGOSSIP sites I am manager of 8 world scale prominent figure social media content + my other stream/project social media and that of my talented daughter violinist Estella Elisheva alongside with her performances schedule and contributing productions – running all of this takes a lot of time, effort, brainstrorming and working on finding advanced solutions. Non of this could be done properly without a decent notebook. The one I have bought is decent — but I have the idea that would make the decent planner journal into a perfect one!!! — until this day I have not found anything like that from any corner of the world! They say that good ideas emerge from committed labour and the evolution of affairs and that’s how it is!
Oh yes, and then also home, household and other enterprises and important events. It’s pleasant, I feel life bubbling and there is something new and exciting for every day! Many of the days include the to-do lists designed by myself, reminding me to commence subsequent negotiations and introduce fresh collabrative productions, create and develop new networks!
From 2017 on I have more deeply involved also Estella Elisheva in NordenBladet, OHMYGOSSIP and OHMYGOSSIPteen work schedule, she has accompanied me to many press trips, workshops and fairs – she is fully efficient and I want her to see from early age what is going on in the world. Despite being just 11 years of age many of the suggestions originating from her have been great and successful and have broadened her own horizons. Thus in her year 2018 I am planning several common secondments for us, visits to fairs, travelling abroad, besides her violin performing events.
May our 2018 planner journals be piled with exciting events and accomplishments and let my idea about an ideal calendar memo 2019 for an active and successful woman be realized!
Hugs to you!
