Don’t Try to Do It All Patience is something that you often try to impress upon on your children. When they demand for you to immediately do something for them, you often tell them to take a deep breath and although Mommy or Daddy will do it for them, it just won’t be right this second. You teach them that there is a time and place for everything and that the proper time to yell a battle cry at the top of their lungs as they chase the family dog is not while Mommy is on the phone with the local pharmacist. Why then do you forget this valuable lesson in your own life? You may not be yelling as you chase the family dog, but you do sometimes need to separate your ‘to do’ lists from your ‘to do now’ lists. By doing this, you can eliminate the stress you experience as you rush to accomplish everything on your overcrowded list as well as, avoid the guilt and disappointment felt when you don’t accomplish everything on list you created for a 30 hour day. Sometimes, you try to do things for which you aren’t yet ready. Christine Martinello, leading authority in leadership & life balancing and author of The Momager Guide, states: “Life is filled with seasons. At every age and stage, women are faced with choices. If we see and accept the seasons of life clearly we can have what we want, for a season.” You CAN do it all…you just don’t need to do it all right now.
