Pressing the Pause Button
Balance in Daily Life
Today, I have a bunch of tasks waiting for my attention:
- Doing the laundry
- Cleaning the windows
- Painting a wall
- Vacuuming the rooms
The list grows as I think about it further. But today, I choose to halt my thoughts on everything that needs to be done.
But today…
Today, I press the Pause button.
The weeks fly by faster than I can keep up. There are days when it feels like I’m clinging onto a runaway train.
So, I purchased a calendar this year to keep track of everything happening, where and when. It helps me feel like I have some control over My Time, making it feel like it’s not slipping away so quickly.
But most importantly, I use the calendar to schedule some Me Time.
I realized that if I carve out Time for myself amidst everything else, there is a bigger chance that I will spend Time on myself, not for anyone else’s.
