RE: Are you really “too busy”?

in #life6 years ago

I love this. You could have written this for me. I run a business, I want to be a "present" father, I am building an essential oils business, I have vounteered to be an event director for parkrun building a local event from the ground up, and committed to running a marathon in a few months time..... Sounds like a lot, but in any given moment I can really only do 1 thing. Create a schedule & calm the f*&^ down.... There's still plenty of time for social media & netflix.... so I can't be completely overwhelmed! When I practice being present, and content (that's something I've been working on llately), it all seems to come together. And yeah, sometimes I'm not as good as I could be in terms of communication with people, but that's ok... It's something I'm prepared to be a little slack at to make sure I hit my priority tasks.

Good post, as always @tressareid

It sounds like you've got lots going on and are keeping busy. Busy is good as long as it's making you feel the way you want to feel at the end of the day. Even some levels of overwhelm are a good thing, as long as we can hone back in and always be aware of what exactly is consuming out time and energy.

I wish you success in theses big things you've got going on, self awareness is where it's at. :)
