This popped into my inbox yesterday from Real Simple's Daily Thought and it's perfect.
I often say that I'm behind on my life. I take on too much, get behind, get tired, then feel overwhelmed and completely unproductive. I say yes to more things than I can possibly do and then feel like a failure when I can't do it all. It's a recurring problem, you'd think I'd learn. I'm aware of the problem, so that's something right?
But, despite not being perfect, or even really on top of things, I know that I continue to improve, and focus in on the things I really care about and most importantly, I'm getting better and not spending time on things I don't really care about so I have more time for the things that matter most.
What are you trying to get better at?
