Arlett, I think “no” is the most difficult word for some of us to utter! I include myself in that number. Bit by bit I’m getting better. We all can make our lives so much simpler by eliminating what isn’t necessary. Our “no” is powerful!

Saying no is not easy but definitely something worth working on. Thanks for linking up for #Flashback Friday.

Amen, Michelle. Those are my priorities as well. I can’t believe I really thought that multitasking got me so much more done daily! Now I make myself slow down and take heed of what I’m doing. Mindfulness, I guess, is the correct word. Even reading sometimes… I realize my mind has been elsewhere while I’ve been processing the words on the page. It calls for a consciousness that we’ve been subtly told is inimical to getting things done. What a crock! 🙂

I so agree! Multitasking is fragmented thinking. People think that they are doing more but you can’t possibly pay as much attention as a given task requires if you are splitting your thinking and doing all over the place. It’s a hard habit to break but worth it.

I am really trying to make my top priorities those I focus on….God, exercise and eating to honor this body He’s giving me, my family and improving my work at the job and my blogging 🙂

LOL! I love the point about Jesus creating the universe one day and one category at a time. We tend to forget that. And the expectations? Yeah, they’ll have to take a back seat. Way too tiring!

Good to see you here posting! Come on back!

All this running around and expectations are getting on my nerves. My chapter president announced that there would be another “wake keeping” and it is a family affair, the person died in Africa, don’t mind supporting folks during difficult times but I refuse to get caught up in the wake keeping cycle. That stuff is tiring and expensive. Another issue for me is that I am non African so that kind of run around is tiring for me, those things go to the wee hours of the morning. Like today, another house gathering, not! Especially not on the eve of my birthday with same day notice. About multitasking, even Jesus created the universe one day one category at a time, who am I to multitask? Still need to focus on my own details, getting there. Thank for all you do to keep us sane.

Hey Ugochi! I agree, most of the fragmented condition of our lives is due to lack of focus. God is not a God of disorder, so we know that focus is part of His plan for us. Let’s all get on board the focus train!

Focusing is very important in order to achieve anything worth while. Thanks for this post. Have a super blessed weekend!
Love

Kesha, multitasking is an epidemic, and like all epidemics, it’s not healthy!

It’s a myth (in terms of productivity). All of these tasks are essential and I love it!!
