Taming the Squirrel

How many of us live our lives on full screech mode? I know I do. I think a thought, push it to the back of my brain file cabinet to reflect on "someday" and never get back to it or forget what the original thought was to begin with. This week when I went to visit my wonderful shrink, I thought hmmm I'll bring a pad of paper and a pen and take notes. The first thing I wrote down was "tame the squirrel" I always feel like a squirrel rushing around trying to get all my nuts in a row and they always end up all over the damn place with no two nuts in the same spot! So this is why I'm reflecting. Like I said in a previous blog, I have to organize my thoughts and noodle them through so I can make them sound somewhat coherent when I get them on here for you to read. I recently had an opportunity to take a seminar on strategic thinking. I took notes to share some ideas on setting up a personal mission statement. If I can find my notes I will write about how to do it and what mine is. Now if I make myself do the same thing with house work maybe I could have a clean house! Nah one mountain at a time!
