This is an archived blog from when I ran Conscious Public Relations Inc. from 2008-2018. Excuse the potential outdated-ness!

I had a HUGE realization at class yesterday about why I seem to end up filling my plate of activities with so many things and then complaining about why I have too much to do.

I looked back at my “Looking back and ahead at the same time” post from May this year to remind myself why I committed to a 2014 “dedicated to me.” But what I realized was that I place this on myself. For many reasons, but just as I place these on myself I can choose (if I wish to) not to as well. That is the harder part for me, because even though I am trying to get through projects, sometimes it does not take as short of a time as you want it to. Sometimes you depend on people. And realistically, there just isn’t enough time for it all to be done in the snap of a finger.

This morning I woke up with a renewed sense of zest for life. Half my work day will be cut due to deliveries/installations at the new place, and then the rest of my day will likely be filled with hauling my possessions, but I chose this. More specifically, I chose to live life with my partner and since he is moving, I am choosing to move as well. Just like I can choose to not complain about moving, or choose to be excited about this new chapter in our lives together.

What on your plate are you excited about tackling today?
