You’re Not Too Busy!

There’s a lot to do these days. I’ve heard from so many people that they feel overwhelmed juggling so many things. In fact, over the past couple of weeks, when I’ve asked people how they are, the most common response I’ve gotten is “busy”. With the end of summer vacations, getting kids back to the routine of school (in person or remote) and the often busier pace of work in the fall, it can feel like we just don’t have any time. Thing is though, we all have the same amount of time each day: 24 hours. And although it can feel like our time is ‘not our own’, it really is. We can consciously — and deliberately — choose how to spend it! And the first step is simply saying to yourself, “I’m going to create time today — even just five minutes — for the people who are important to me…and who I’m important to!” Then, actually schedule time on your calendars, close your computer and put down your phone, and give your undivided attention to your loved one or friend! (Pets count too!) As I always say…work is work. And it’s never going to say ‘I love you.’ Your family and friends will! So create time for them today!
