Midnight Motivations and Musings # 66

Personally, I have sometimes found myself in a quandary as I am filled with an ambitious drive to achieve so much simultaneously and the lessons learnt by so doing, is that something always suffers for the other.

There’s no way to do so many things excellently well when the attention span has been spread so thin.

The need to accomplish often comes hand in hand with the feeling that one is a bit behind, thus the attempt to bundle up and get so much done becomes irresistible.

However, taming the desire to rev all engines and streamlining these projects yields a better result.

One feels less pressured and more productive when they set a deliverable timeline for each one and take it one after the other.

A wordsmith with a vivid imagination, an eager mind and a burning desire to carve out tales. As I journey with my muse to that land of all possibilities and self discovery, I hope my personal evolution will serve as a beacon of inspiration for anyone who chooses to stop by.

  1. This was a long and hard lesson for me to learn but I think I have finally got it under control. I don’t accept a task unless I know I can manage it. If I do take it on and things change, I own up to that. We were supposed to have a dear friend for lunch today but I only got 2 hours and a bit of sleep and am still coughing and in pain. So I asked if we could postpone and he understood. It is so much easier this way! You don’t lose friends, in fact, you gain their respect!

    1. Very true. It just dawned on me that I sent you an email, but it’s possible that you didn’t receive it ‘cos I didn’t receive a response. It’s about a short interview that I thought you might be interested in for this Sunday.

  5. I’m still trying to learn this. It’s so difficult to have all these things I want to do, and be limited in my ability to do them. I find myself overbooking myself and stretching my limits. Will have to remember your wise words.
