Are u trying to get everything done?

To many of us live our lives as if the secret purpose is to somehow get everything done.We stay up late,get up early,avoid having fun,and keep our loved ones waiting.Sadly,so many of us put off our lived ones so long that the loved ones lose interest in maintaining¹ the relationship! Often,we convince² ourselves that our obsession³ with our "to do" list is only temporary--that once we get through the list,we'll be calm,relaxed,and happy.But in reality,this rarely happens.As items are checked off ,new ones simply replace them.The nature of your "in basket" is that it's meant to have items to be completed in it--it's not meant to be empty.There will always be phone calls that need to be made,projects to complete,and work to be done.In fact,it can be argued that a full "in basket" is essential for success.It means ur time is in demand.

Regardless of who you are of what you do,however,remember that nothing is more important than your own sense of happiness and inner⁴ peace and that of your loved ones.If you're obsessed⁵ with getting everything done,you'll never have a sense of well-being⁶! In reality,almost everythng can wait.Very little in our work lives truly falls into the emergency category.If you stay focused on your work,it will get done in due time.

I find that if i remind myself that the purpose of life isn't to get it all done but to enjoy each step along the way and live a life filled with love,it's far easier for me to control y obsession with completing my list of things to do.Remember,when you die,there will still be unfinished business to take care of.And you konw what?Somebody else will do it for u!Don't waste any more precious moments of your life regretting the inevitable⁷.
