I've had a several discussions over the past few days about time. It seems we all complain at one time or another about the lack of time in a day. Brooke said she wishes life would slow down for a bit. Kendra loves to talk about how life goes by faster the older she gets. My friend's dad said today to enjoy life one day at a time or it passes you by. Dad says if we had more time in a day, we'd still complain about not having enough time! At times I do wish life was simple, like when we were kids. All we worried about was not having enough time to play outside while the sun was out. Recess was never long enough, and summer was way too short for my liking. I'm feeling overwhelmed because I have so much I need to get done, yet the day goes by so fast I rarely get anything on my "to-do" list accomplished. I've decided there are a few things I can do without to allow myself more time each day:
- Don't get ready in the morning: no shower, no make up, no hair, no ironing, no making my bed, no packing my lunch. Just get up and go!
- Avoid using the bathroom 1000 times a day. Okay, I really don't go often, but think of how much time I could save not going at all!
- Never sleep. This one hurts me to say, but really, think of all I can get done in the 5-8 hours I sleep every night!
I know it's impossible to eliminate any of these steps from my life! I just need to evaluate my priorities...if I even have any...and start focusing on the things I consider important and get them done. If anyone has any advice, please share it...if you have any time!
