Options...

I have a strong sense at the moment that I am chasing myself around in circles. I am on holidays and I had planned on working  on streamlining things in my life but at the moment because I have been researching lots of different things that I havent had time to do before; I have actually created more OPTIONS for myself!

In seeking to minimize I wonder how it is that the time I would need to do all these things got multiplied so easily? I mean after all there are only so many hours in the day and even then there are things we must do as a priority and also there are clearly limits to our physical bodies which exist in time and space!

I think options are a great thing, I always want options. Ask my friends and family. Whenever its possible to have an option rather than one choice I will always look for it and then mull over it... Options means you have choice, you can work out what is best for you but sometimes when you have too many options it means  you could end up wasting a lot of time trying to figure things out.

So as you may know I had been away on holidays for a week in the country. Of course I over packed because I liked to have plenty of options. I took my own Doona so that I could even have the option of my bedding and more warmth. I took a whole bag full of books with me 'just in case', and my beautiful friend joked with me... 'one book is enough!'.  Of course the God's honest truth is that I just couldn't fit in all my options, I barely read any book and perhaps even less than normal! I took all my painting gear so that I might get some time to put paint to canvas but when it got down to it I wouldnt have time to do that properly either.

I wonder if I will learn a lesson eventually and hone what it is that I want to do? What is the most valuable and work on that and do some quality time on it rather than flitting from one thing to another like a honey bee that has too many flowers to choose from!

You have to work out if you are helping or hindering yourself! Are your options enhancing your life or are they spreading you way to thin so make any time or any option count for the most good!

Maybe its time to chop the list down an 'option' or two! =)

~Time Management & The Hundreds and Thousands of Life~

Life is hectic, its fast, its full of all sorts of things that we need and that we don’t need! I need to cull somethings out of my life so that I am not running all the time.

~Little Things Add Up!~

My life is just a bit crazy busy, it never seems to stop in one way or another and I need to do something about it. I am a detailed person so I like all the detailed things about life, my life and our life, but perhaps I don’t have time for all the details anymore.

I need to do some culling and when you look at that, its often hard to imagine what to cull and if you really can or want to cull something. I mean I’m not going to stop doing art or writing or doing the shopping for that matter… all essentials to me!

Anyway I came up with something this morning… there are things I am always trying to squeeze in, one of them is some daily emails I receive and I hardly ever read them. I dont have time but they are on my list in one way because I see them every morning on my computer.

Today I decided to unsubscribe from them both. My friend gets them and it they are good she will forward them to me, then I will make the time. But in the meantime that will be one less thing demanding my attention and the precious time I have.

So that is the first thing to go. I’m praying Dear Lord that you will show me lots of other little things that can go to take the pressure off me in lots of little ways!

We can have a whole bowl of sweets but perhaps we should just pick out our favourite ones so we don’t get sick!

Stay tuned for more on this!
