Please read this
fantastic, short article in
Fast Company about
setting priorities, and establishing appropriate expectations (with yourself and with others) about what you can and
can't get done in the time available to you every day.
We all have way too many things to do. Too many things piling up at the office, and too many duties back at home. If we assume it all has to get done, we will never succeed. If we set goals but don't establish the discipline to stick to them and focus
only on them, we're still doomed to a life of frustration and self-evaluated failure.
But if we take the time to decide what we really want, and what's really important to us (professionally and personally), we empower and free ourselves to live more satisfied lives.
(Wow, heavy stuff. To laugh again, watch this.)
