Slow Down!

 After sending my daily email yesterday I was absolutely horrified by what I had sent out. Not the content, however the sloppy manner in which I had sent it.

Misspelled words,citing wrong things and missing letters.

I felt stupid, and very disappointed in myself.

I understand that it really was no big deal.

I just hold myself to a higher standard than that.

I also know that when I get that sloppy in one area of my life,there is bound to be a spill over into other areas as well.

Getting sloppy is as contagious as the plague!

When I don't pay attention to the details of getting little things like grammar and spelling correct, more important things like my diet and my appearance end up in the same malaise.

The carry over may effect my attitude and concentration behind the wheel.

My finances can also easily burgeon out of control.

Trust me, it does not take long for clutter to become chaos. 

Thankfully, red flags popped up all around me when I saw what I had written.

Bells,whistles, alarms, sirens and flashing lights could not have alerted me any more than what I read.

All of this is easily rectified.....SLOW DOWN!

Slow down and pay attention David.

Something may be brewing under the surface that I am unaware of. 

That's fine. I'll deal with it when and if it surfaces. In the meantime SLOW DOWN and pay attention. 

Pay attention to the details. 

Handle (don't sweat) the small stuff.

Be alert.

Be observant.

Pay attention and most of all slow down.

Whew.....glad I got that off of my chest!
