WAHM Life: Don’t Let Change Ruin Your To-do List and Your Day!
Time is something we all struggle with at one time or another. Things take longer than expected, things don’t go the way we thought they would, or we struggle with things because of our knowledge or know-how.
No matter what it is you’re doing and how hard you plan, time can be your worst enemy. Things always change or something comes up and plans change. I ran into this particular situation yesterday and while I was frustrated at first, things worked out and everything was fine. That’s one thing that always gets to me. I worry that if my plans change things won’t work out the way they should. I get frustrated and stress over the rest of what needs to be done and I truly hate that.
You can plan all you want, but things change and the best thing to do is go with the flow. Change your plans accordingly and get back to doing what you’re doing. Use a calendar and a timer and work your to-do list with the new changes in the pot. You’ll find when you do you’ll still accomplish your tasks, even if that means you have to move some tasks from today to tomorrow or next week.
Just remember one thing, don’t let change ruin your day. If you do, you’ll find you won’t get anything done and that will make matters even worse. Just work through the changes and continue to work your to-do list.
Everything will work out if you let it!
