This past weekend, I was at home doing some random chores that I we all have to do on occasion. As I rushed around from room to room, task to task, I had this thought…
“Why am I in such a hurry? I have about 30 minutes of stuff to do and the rest of the day is absolutely empty. I need to enjoy the moment.”
If you’re anything like me, you always feel like you’re in a hurry,
That you must hurry to finish this task so that you can rush to get to that one.
You feel like your success/failure is based on accomplishing your tasks or calendar appointments for the day.
Let me encourage you,
no matter where you find your self stuck in a to-do world,
Forget the to do list on occasion
Whether you’re a…
- Stay at home parent.
- A pastor.
- A teacher.
- A student.
- A business man or woman.
- A manager.
- An accountant.
- A teller.
- A custodian.
- A cashier.
Whatever you are, forget the to do list and enjoy the mission.
Remember why you do what you do.
Take time to be in the moment.
Take time just to take time.
Forget the to-do list.
Remember to live.
