Little Bits At A Time

Okay so here's the deal, life & to-dos are overwhelming if we think about the whole list at once. Especially if we are adding in completely new balls to juggle! If we wait until the perfect timing, or our complete comfort with all that needs to be done, then we'll never even begin or complete. First, know there will never be a perfect "time". Second, know that there is no "perfect" anything. You might come close at times, but you're never going to accomplish "perfect" anything all or any of the time. Choose to accept that more than not "done" is better than "perfect", and "doing" is better than "waiting". Don't fall into the trap of beating yourself up along the way either of "I should be doing all this other too", or "I should just give up because I can't get all x,y,z done". Every day do what you can (legitimately try/do), and every day try to add one more item that gets left off or behind. "Adulting" is no different than exercise.....you have to warm up and practice the basics before you can add the more advanced moves. If you give up more than you practice the basic/daily tasks, the likelihood of you ever getting to the new or bigger parts of your to-dos is next to none (because you don't really want to if you aren't really trying). Harsh reality that everyone who has exercised for fitness or weight loss is, that you have to really, really want it to achieve it...because the discipline that it requires is not within the realm of reach if not for the desire to obtain it!
