@@LorellaPlanBeeOrchardandFarm YES its so easy to get lost in all the projects on a homestead or farm... we are two years in and really just building everything because this property was abandoned for years so there was nothing but messes to clean up lol.

[@LorellaPlanBeeOrchardandFarm]

@@BaileyHillsFarm it gets better! Projects get completed and you’ll start seeing the fruit of your labor before you know it.

[@melissadean7471]

I love the list idea. First thing tomorrow for me is clean out the chicken coop!

[@LorellaPlanBeeOrchardandFarm]

Yuck. Yes definitely a dreaded task. Did you get it done?

Love this video. I, too am a list maker and love feeling productive but can lack motivation sometimes. You have some great points to help me get and stay motivated.

[@LorellaPlanBeeOrchardandFarm]

Thanks, I’m so glad you found it helpful.

It is so hard to believe that you've been a homesteader for such a short time. You have so much knowledge already. I never tire of your videos and am always excited when I see you have a new one. My garden suffered this year also because of health reasons. but God willing I will have next year. We are never promised tomorrow but I always dream to improve. Keep teaching Lorella, you have a gift.

[@LorellaPlanBeeOrchardandFarm]

Thanks Suzie, such a kind thing to say. ☺️ We WILL have better gardens next year. We can do it!

[@rustictraditionshomestead]

Love this vid! I spend time often dreaming and planning what I want to have.

[@LorellaPlanBeeOrchardandFarm]

Yes dreaming is an important part of life. Sometimes we get so caught up in the day to day we forget to dream.

[@missourigirl4101]

Lorella this video is inspiring and very insightful. Thanks for sharing your ideas, successes and failures.

[@LorellaPlanBeeOrchardandFarm]

You’re so welcome.☺️

I lived on a community farm in west lothion scotland,i milked cows by hand sitting on a stool ,we drank the milk by putting a filter into a large jug ,i milked goats too that was in 1983 to 1984.

[@LorellaPlanBeeOrchardandFarm]

Wow, that’s really interesting!

[@mollyedwards7494]

This is how I milk our goats. My grandparents had a large jersey farm and they milked this way growing up. No fancy milking machines.

[@theresasumner8943]

I definitely needed this message today ,, thank you 🙏

[@LorellaPlanBeeOrchardandFarm]

You are so welcome and I'm glad it was helpful.

Hey, Lorella, ooh I love you when you're in motivational mode! I saw one of your first videos and you were talking about not bothering what is behind you, just concentrate on getting the job in front of you done. Love it. Thank you for all the hints and tips. I have lost my mojo just now. I need to get outside and tidy and cover the beds ready for winter so my goal is to get out there one or two times this week, depending when the lovely Welsh rain - you know ALL about that - gives up a little. Last week I wrote my to do lists, I live my life by lists as it works for me. I decided to write one for the poly tunnel(pt), one for the polyhouse (ph) and one for outside as this made it easier to break down the tasks. One job from the ph may lead to getting one in the pt done, ie re potting something from the ph that I'm leaving in the pt over winter - win win! This I hope will deal with me feeling anxious about not knowing where to start, losing sleep and really aiming to get this outside stuff done so that in a couple of weeks I can concentrate on thing for the festive season - which I LOVE, thank you again for this video.xx

[@LorellaPlanBeeOrchardandFarm]

Breaking down tasks really does help! Let me know how it goes. I like that you are staying with jobs that can snowball into other jobs. Good thinking.

[@livingthegoodlifeinwales]

@@LorellaPlanBeeOrchardandFarm Hi! I just came inside, after being out for 3/4 of an hour before the rain! I emptied some compost bags that were used for now finished courgettes and put that on the pt beds, more to do but happy so far. I also took up some failed turnips and used the leaves to compost down after I'd started weeding one of the beds, thanks to @acrehomestead for that tip, I think Becky used squash leaves. Happy with what I did. Hope you're having a good day. ❤️

[@LorellaPlanBeeOrchardandFarm]

@@livingthegoodlifeinwales yay! Very productive! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@NobleHomestead]

Yep, overwhelmed. This video was much needed right now. I LOVE you! It IS all so worth it. WooHOO! None if my projects get done in a day, lol Managable steps are KEY. Things get done in shifts around here, too. Dream on, dreamer. I'm right there with ya! Haven't even begun to show you what cool craziness we've been up to.

[@LorellaPlanBeeOrchardandFarm]

I love all the tentrr stuff you’re doing and am wondering His I can incorporate that into my farm.

[@NobleHomestead]

@@LorellaPlanBeeOrchardandFarm You'll have to come test drive my camps ;) You are always welcome to a night on us. Come visit in Spring!

[@MamaGrows]

My favorite tip was to remember sucesses.

[@LorellaPlanBeeOrchardandFarm]

Thanks Kathleen!

[@alisonvanwyk4348]

I love the way you think , I take my hat off to you . I so agree with doing the thing you like least first otherwise it becomes a barrier to doing other things 🙃🙂

[@LorellaPlanBeeOrchardandFarm]

It really does help! Today's first up is mucking out the chicken coop. Ugh.

[@troxycat]

Well I certainly needed this today. About to head out and work on a compost bin and clean the quail run in the icy rain, needed a little inspiration! 😆

[@LorellaPlanBeeOrchardandFarm]

Glad it was helpful! Icy rain is the worst. 🥶

[@pixelupdates7041]

The two hardest things for me are the overwhelming expenses of doing this and doing everything on my own literally everything I have absolutely no help whatsoever

[@LorellaPlanBeeOrchardandFarm]

It is so overwhelming. Sometimes I’ve had to let things go and focus on fewer areas.

[@debbiestrang7774]

Binge Jesus 🙏🏼 Amen

[@LorellaPlanBeeOrchardandFarm]

I love this hoodie. It’s one of the shirts from The Chosen.

[@carolinegray3150]

Give your self ten or fifteen minutes breaks.

[@LorellaPlanBeeOrchardandFarm]

Yes!! That is a fantastic tip!

[@carolinegray3150]
