Balancing Act

I have a philosophy here at ShoeFitz, a little motto that gives me some direction. Mind you, I seldom really have a plan, but a motto might be a good start, right?

So here it is: If you don't have anything to say, don't say anything.

How's that for a blog post?

(Spread the word.)

It's just that I'm having this kind of week/month/life:

To-Do: Get back to work.

Can you relate? Yes, you live around here, too. You can relate. 

When you're busy with one thing, you're pulled toward another. While you're working at #34 on your To-Do list, you're hurrying to get to #38. You say yes five times to five people, but can only accomplish four; instead of focusing on the four successes -- it's number five that wears on you.

You've been there. 

And you know, usually I'm such a fountain of good advice. (You: *spitting coffee all over your computer screen*) (Sorry about that.)

:)

But tonight, I'm just wondering how, where, and when I'll finally find balance in this life. (Is it ok to struggle honestly on my blog for a minute?) At thirty-something years old, the only thing I've figured out how to balance is the pile of papers on my desk. And even that's about to topple.

So friend, a question for the ages: How do you balance this life? Even if you don't have all the answers, maybe we'll make it through better if we stick together.

Maybe changing that motto,
Becki~

P.S. -- For those without a blog or Google Account, you can still leave a comment if you'd like to do so. Anonymous notes don't bother me one bit, or you can comment with your (first!) name under Name/URL (even if you don't have a URL). Or you can just grab yourself a piece of cheesecake and forget all about balance and ShoeFitz. Whatever works for you!
