Time . . . a four letter word

I was looking for a quote for an e-lesson I was creating for my Business Marketing Gym members when I stumbled on this quote:

When someone is impatient and says, "I haven't got all day," I always wonder, How can that be? How can you not have all day? George Carlin

I could almost here George Carlin's sarcastic tone as I read it with a smile on my face. The truth is we all have the same amount of time, the question is how do we manage that time. I have said it before, there is no such thing as time management, that implies we can change, add or do something about time. No, that cannot be further from the truth. I do believe in "Behavior Management." That we can control. So my question to you as we start 2010, what behavior are you going to change for 2010 to get the most out of your time and life?

Chinese Food Cures All

I have to admit I have been quite stressed lately. In fact, I have been feeling like I am living on the edge of a cliff and not sure how to stay safe. The good news is that I am starting to feel safe again. I am seeing clarity and gaining some perspective.

One thing I noticed about myself during this time is that when I feel like this, I long for and crave good Chinese food. For me the smells, flavors and texture is the ultimate in comfort food. It also tends to be less fattening than other foods which is important to me.

So I say, when the going gets tough, get some Chinese food.

Rainy days and Mondays . . .

Have you ever had one of those days. Well today it feels like my life. I am so tired of fighting. I fight with myself and there are days when I fight with the world. I am not sure what else to do, but I am almost done. The pain is too much and it does not seem to end. The worst part is most of it is my fault, and I can't seem to stop it. Don't get me wrong, I am not a victim. Yet, I find myself doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. Yes, that is the definition of insanity. Look it up in the dictionary and you will see me.

Please keep me in your prayers if you are the praying sort. I feel so tired. Today, it is just too hard. I hope I feel better tomorrow.
