In early January I remember hearing someone say it was going to be a “fast” year. It was around the 8th and her exclamation was regarding the eye-blink between the New Year and then.
She was so right. I had a whole list of resolutions ready in January to make 2010 “the best year ever.” Blink. It’s March. Blink. It’s June, halfway through the year. Blink. We’re already almost done with the first week of August. I want my year back! At least a couple of blinks worth.
So what does this mean for August and beyond? I’m not sure, certainly some soul-searching and reconsideration of how I spend my time. I’d always believed in things like time management but I’m realizing that more than how I fill my time, it is the choices I make that are more important. I’m learning that perhaps the common complaint people have about “not enough time” and “balance” is really about priorities.
