Deciding,
choosing and planning
“I have learned over the years that when one's mind is made
up, this diminishes fear; knowing what must be done does away
with fear.”
~ Rosa Parks
Part of the reason many of us are so stressed and overwhelmed
lately, is because we haven't made the choices, decisions and
plans. We have so much we want to do, but don't take the time
to choose what is best for us.
We have an illusion that we can have the perfect body, work 40
or 50 hours, spend lots of time with friends and family, write
a book in the evening, keep a spotless home, have a constantly
passionate marriage, volunteer at church and school, keep up with
all the TV shows and books, and feel perfectly centered at all
times.
I hate to break it to you, but you can't do everything you want
and certainly not at the same time.
So how do we decide what to do?
