Do you ever find yourself overwhelmed with multiple tasks or deliverables all due at the same time? Maybe you have a deadline rapidly approaching and you’re not sure how you’ll manage everything on your plate.

Traditions – where do they come from? What’s important about them? Some we inherit and others we create. As I reflect, I am aware that sometimes traditions change as a result of necessity and sometimes because of whim or maybe they no longer serve us.

What if I told you there are countless perspectives for absolutely every situation and you have total control over which you choose. Would you feel empowered? Relieved? Overwhelmed?

All work and no play make me irritable.

To be fair, I don’t live in extremes so ‘all’ and ‘no’ aren’t completely accurate, but you know what I mean. I have hit a wall and I know I’m not alone.

Happy Summer! Yes, it’s not our typical summer. Most of us aren’t traveling and many of us are still sheltering in place to some extent, but I’m all about making lemonade out of lemons…literally and figuratively.

For many, being productive means doing more. Finding life hacks or creating efficiencies so we can cram more into each day. Wow, sounds great, right?!? I don’t know about you, but my experience is there’s always more to do regardless of how efficient or ‘productive’ I am.

I’m going to jump right in…no big pre-amble. If you want to maximize your time, have fewer things ‘fall through the cracks’, reduce (or dare I say) eliminate being late or forgetting, try these tips.

I have come to the realization that some of the tasks I’ve put aside with the intent that I’ll do them when I have more time, still aren’t getting done. Hmmm, why is that?

These are unprecedented and scary times to be sure. Here’s wishing you and all of yours safety and good health. A sincere thank you to those putting themselves on the front line.

When did self-care become a four letter word…OK, it’s two four-letter words, but you get my point. Do you ever feel ‘selfish’ when you want to put yourself first? Do you ever feel like you have to get ‘everything’ done before you can ‘squeeze’ in any self-care? No, it was just me? Well good for you. If, however, you find yourself saying yes to any of the above, this post is for you.
