Why have I not been doing dishes or laundry for an almost unhealthy period of time?
Because, I am focused on doing the important things that I need to do, inevitably letting the non-important things slide a tiny bit.
Don't worry ladies, I will clean soon!
**You sometimes have to let the little things go by the wayside in order to enable the really big, really good things to happen.**
I have been focusing on getting my new life in Rochester together (yes, I am back to Rochester!) and all of the other responsibilities that I am now charged with as an "adult" just out of college. I feel really motivated now that I just realized my life is in my own hands, and my "future" is a bit closer than I used to think. Frankly, it's time to rock and roll.
So, how do you focus on what is most important in crazy times while still finding time for yourself to recuperate?
Do not respond to emails that are not important to you. Do not check social networking websites (unless that is your stress relief). Do not feel like you have to respond to every message you receive from someone. You can always do it later.
Slam through your most important work with incredible quality, care and accuracy. Take on your to do list with a vengeance.
Stop watching the evening news and instead get stuff done.
Your time is your most important asset. Guard it closely and use it well.
Make sure to maintain your social life. This is vital in slowing the invevitable gray hairs that can come from a demanding lifestyle.
And, keep non-essential work items short, but still create work that is genuine and that you can be proud of. Like this article for example ... ;-)
Once you are able to free up your life from the daily monotonous and pointless tasks, you can start to do the things that you really love, the things that really make a difference in your life and in the lives of others.
