Good Morning and Happy Sunday! It's funny as I woke up with this "idea", in my head, more conceptual than anything. I'm sure a scientist or someone has done much more thoughtful research, but I know in my life, oftentimes I need reminders, or rules if you will, as to where to focus or think about what needs to be done in a given day.

If you think about it, imagine there are the things that you want to do, and there are things that you need to do. Well, at the end of the day, what typically wins out more times than not? Well, I guess that depends on the type of person you are! LoL - which as I type this is the complete point of my writing. I think in a perfect world, there would obviously be a balance, but I think we can all agree that the things that we "need to get done" would get accomplished before the things we "want to get done".

Which then takes me to my next thought, would be, if you have something that equally needs to get done, but one you want to do, and one you don't want to do, which should you do first? In my mind, you would do the things that you don't want to do first, because once that is over, you then have the enjoyable "task" left before you.

The other thing, is when you wake up each morning, you truly only have so much mental energy in the day. That is why it is so important to stay away from toxic people, arguments and toxic situations - also, distractions. If you were to wake up, have the whole day before you, but within the first hour, thirty minutes is spent going back and forth with someone on a conversation where you will never change their mind - at the end of the day - was that a good use of your precious time? Let's face it, we only have so much, and we don't know when it is going to run out.

Keep in mind, when I write, like this, I'm sharing with you what is on my mind, so please don't take this ever as I know better, or I have this figured out. It is my hope, that by sharing what is in my life and in my head, that it serves as a valuable and teachable moment for your own life. Again, while I love the naughty, and the fantasy, I'm a big believer in all things in moderation - including the naughty.

It's my hope that happiness and fulfillment finds you and that you, like me, remember to focus your time on the activities in your life in the green first, then the yellow, then the red, then the black...

XoXo,

KS
