How to do everything

Posted on 24 May 2010

It’s Monday night, and so far all is quiet. It’s been a long time since my last real blog post because, almost a year ago, my baby girl was born. In this year of madness, I’ve needed time management skills like never before, and I’ve certainly taken them to new heights, managing to get far more done that I thought possible.

So, then, why haven’t I been writing? It’s not a lack of passion. It’s not lack of time – other mothers have written several books during nap times.

So what is it?

I simply decided that, for a period, I wanted to do other things. I don’t have to do everything. In fact, I can’t possibly do everything I want to; at least, not all right now. So it’s very important to choose what I DO want to do with my time, right now. There will be other times when I can do other things, but right now there are only 24 hours in the day, and it’s up to me what I do with them.

I read a wonderful affirmation recently: “I have all the time in the world”. It’s true. I have all the time there is: it’s up to me to choose what best to do with it.
