Crisis mode doesn’t fix anything
Wednesday, January 23rd, 2008Woohoo, I think I like the look of my new blog. Now, to get some posts made!
Once again, I find myself pondering the huge number of Really Important Things That I Need to Do, And Right Now. Clean the floors, prepare the next girl scout meeting, sell cookies, help the kids with homework, cub scout activities, piano lessons, UIL Music Memory contest, work on this web site, work on the Stitchery Mall web site, buy groceries, pay bills, plan menus, exercise… If I dropped everything to concentrate on any one of them for a whole day or two, then I could really feel some progress - and that’s good, right? But then everything else would REALLY go to pot, and they’re important too (else they wouldn’t be on that RITTINDARN list)
Operating in Crisis Mode just sticks a band-aid on one thing, or maybe two. It doesn’t really help, though. So once more, I’m re-committing to baby-stepping my way through everything, and doing a little bit of everything every day.
Oh yeah, and I’m giving up my puzzle site until after 8 PM. *sigh* There, I said it out loud. Now I have to do it! LOL!
So how about you? Are you having trouble getting out of crisis mode, too? Is there a precious time-waster that you need to give up or limit?
