"It is amazing what you can accomplish if you do not care who gets the credit."
~ Harry S Truman
Today was supposed to be my Day of Doing Nothing day. Sweat pants and a hoodie and me and my computer.
That was going to be my agenda. Some writing then some course work, then some lunch and then back to my studies.
It's almost noon now and I am just getting around to writing.
On top of everything else,out of the blue, I got a phone call from a dear high school buddy who is traveling through the area so I will jump out in a few minutes to grab a cup of coffee and catch up with him a bit.
Max and I will do lunch (some left overs in the fridge) and then swap out the light bulbs in the family room (we did the kitchen and dining area yesterday) when I get back.
Amazing what some new lighting can do to a room!
My new plan is to be able to spend the latter part of my afternoon at my desk listening to my course on coaching. If I have time, I will also listen to a bit more of my course on Mindfulness.
It s becoming painfully obvious to me that I have yet to get a handle on my time management. Or more precisely my ME management in regards to that particular resource.
I am getting better at it.
In the past, losing the morning as I did today would have led to me abandoning any hopes of accomplishing what I had set out to do in the first place.
Today,it just means making adjustments to the amount of free time that I have left and just how much I can hope to get done in it.
That's a far cry from throwing the proverbial baby out with the bath water.
It's called progress!
More importantly,it's a win for the home team!
Shabbat Shalom!
