“Beware the barrenness of a busy
life.” - Socrates
“Take time for all things. Great haste makes great waste.” - Benjamin Franklin
Ever notice how there is time to do things over when it did
not seem there was time to do them right to start with? And it seems the norm that when we have to
go back and correct something it is much more difficult than doing it right to
start with. When we rush hither and yon
trying to be all things to all people we are usually not much to anyone,
ourselves included. Alternately, if we
are doing work just to be doing something and find ourselves doing meaningless
tasks just to avoid clearing other issues out of our mind, we need to remind
ourselves we are better off “doing nothing at all.” Multi-tasking might look good on paper, but
typically falls short in overall efficiency.
Time spent in awareness and at peace with ourselves is our most precious
time. Quietly focusing on one task, just
the one immediately in front of us, helps overcome procrastination and can stop
us from obsessing about other things that are bothering us. And, if that one task we focus on is to sit
quietly and be fully aware right now, that is something in itself.
Today, may I remember that my time is my life.
Have a great Friday !!
