The Benefits of Simplicity


Are you a person who says "YES" when people ask you for your time, money, talent and input? Do you feel overburdoned by all these "YES" answers? If you happen to nod in agreement, please read further. Keeping life simple has certain merits you might be overlooking. Prioritizing is a must for someone who cannot say "NO." For example: Paying your own bills should come first. If you are a student, you should complete your school-work before you give aid to another. Charity is wonderful, but it can also begin by being charitable to yourself! ;)

When you have a project in the works, FINISH IT!
Pick a few things that truly matter to you and see them through to completions. By informing people that you have commitments, in advance of being asked for help, sometimes you can cut them off at the pass. This is not being rude. It is being practical and realistic. Remember that life is about making choices.

Try grouping like with like tasks when driving in order to save time and your gas-money. When the job is done, check it off your written list and smile at yourself with a proud sense of accomplishments. This feels good. You deserve time to play, so put that on your "TO DO" list as well. Try to remember to reward yourself in a loving way when you successfully complete what you start. It will further your efforts and stimulate your will to feel happy that you did what you set out to do. Reprinted with permission of author, Dr. InaNorma Yanez, CH.t from The Arizona Networking News
