This week has been a good week for catching up on lots of pastoral visits that have been piling up. Some visits need lots of time so can't be squeezed in just anywhere. This week, there has been the space to fit those in. But I caught myself thinking today how much there is still to do. The barrel is never empty. Fortunately I soon realised that there's no point dwelling on what's left undone for now. Better to celebrate the tasks that have been cleared from the to-do list. And hope that there are more weeks where there is room to manouvre, when more catching up can be done. The barrel is never going to be empty but it is still rolling. That will have to do for now.
Start a "Have done list" and keep it next to the "To do list" it don't shorten the "to dos" but it keeps things in proportion and, see after 5 years it looks great
ReplyDeleteRonnie may be on to something!
ReplyDeleteIt sounds like a good idea. What would NOT be a good idea for me is to start a "Have NOT done" list. It swould be massive.
