"The fear of being left out or missing an
opportunity sometimes drives us to do more than we should." ~Michael Hyatt
"Margin is the space between our load and our limits, the gap between rest and exhaustion, breathing freely and suffocation." ~Richard Swenson
"The calendar was made for man, and not man for the
calendar." ~Michael Hyatt
“We all yearn for what we have lost. But sometimes, we
forget what we have.” ~Mitch Albom, The Time Keeper
Do you feel you are running low on Margin? If so what do you
do about it? Is Your current work load sustainable? Do you enjoy what you do
everyday?
This is not a message about doing less in life and saying no
to great opportunities. It is a message about making the highest priorities the
ones that actually get priority and get done first. It's about taking care of
yourself so that you can live a longer and happier life, and at the end of the
day do more and be more productive.
We are in a microwave society, but life works best from a
bit of careful planning and choosing the very best things to pursue. What do
you enjoy? What are you good at? Do you have the chance to do what you're good
at everyday?
Be proactive and take control of your life. Take inventory
of external causes, but remember that if you ever feel overwhelmed or over
committed, it comes from within. It is difficult to say no to someone or
something, but the choice is yours which really means it is an inside job.
There is great power in saying NO.
Keep within your proper and healthy margins, live life with
an abundance mindset and control how much you take on at once. If you are
overwhelmed and overworked you will not be as effective. It is better to do
less and be more productive and efficient with less, than to do so much it
can't possibly get done.
Take responsibility, take control and start today!
