Focus on What's Important, Not Just Urgent
As a child, I remember rushing out the door for a day filled with endless adventures, often ending with a game of Hide-and-Seek. Those days felt like they would last forever.
Today, we're still running until the sun sets, but now our to-do lists are packed, and we rarely take a moment to reflect on the bigger picture.
Here's the truth: you'll always make time for your most essential tasks—eating, sleeping, paying bills, feeding the dog, and caring for your loved ones, no matter how chaotic life gets.
But when life feels overwhelming and you find yourself shouting, "Something's got to give!"—it's often your dreams and future goals that are first to be sacrificed.
Stephen Covey taught us the power of prioritizing what's truly important. Remember to put yourself on that list, too. And when things go off course, reset quickly, refocus on what matters, and keep moving forward.
Not every dream will come true, but the important ones have a way of finding you.
