When everything blows up

Oh, hi friends!
Things don’t always go according to plan.
Wait, gotta revise that.
Most things don’t go according to plan.
We know this from years of experience. Your job disappears. You get a stomach cramp mid-race. Your favorite team loses a game. (I love the Mets now.)
Knowing that, we should be a little more prepared.
Knowing that, we should be a little more realistic rather than optimistic.
But knowing that we won’t be, and maybe don’t want to be, then how about we simply agree to take it one day a time?

There are riches at your feet!
“It sounds cliche, but your time management goal shouldn’t be to figure out how to do more, but instead to figure out how to want less.”
Did…did you just see my brain explode?
Never have I clicked a link so fast as this one: “You Don’t Have A Time Management Problem — You Just Think You Do” which should tell you something, and the idea above by Josh Spector crystallized something: At a certain point you might literally be doing too much. (I’m thinking about the same 5-6 things I keep moving from day to day on my agenda without ever touching them. I want to do them, but am I being realistic and actually planning on how — or better yet — why I need to do them?)
Today I want to do a little less, but do the things I am doing really well.
(Um, thanks for walking me through that!! Hope you relate!)

The Olive Garden Never Ending Pasta Pass goes on sale today — are you ready?
In honor of this special occasion, I unearthed this little somethin' my amazing actor brother Eric and I made a few years ago. Enjoy, our three-minute short, “Breadsticks.”
