GETTING IT ALL DONE

     I am so anxious to check things off of my "to-do" list that I often miss the pleasure of doing them. I put pressure on myself to hurry up so I can move on to the next thing, and the next. I try to maximize my time and squish hours of work into minutes... and all so that I can relax.
     While things remain undone, I feel like I have to keep on going, and keep on, until everything is finished, and accounted for, and tied with a bow and put away. What insanity! It's never all done.On the heels of one project comes another and another. Challenge follows challenge. I want to learn to take my time, to enjoy the "doing process," and relax along the way.

I can relax even if I'm in the midst of doing things.
