Getting it all Together

California Wildflowers Baldwin Hills Scenic Overlook

This message was waiting for me in my inbox this morning.  It was one of those forwarded message that I usually skim and save in my inspiration folder (just in case someone asks me to speak or write something  - I'm prepared to go back to my inspiration folder for inspiration :)

But this message came to me "right on time" as they say.  I thought some of you might be inspired by this message too.

An Angel says, 'Never borrow from the future, If you worry about what may
happen tomorrow and it doesn't happen, you have worried in vain.
Even if it does happen , you have to worry twice.'

      More important thoughts from the message below:

1. Pray

2. Go to bed on time.

3. Get up on time so you can start the day unrushed.

4. Say No to projects that won't fit into your time schedule, or that will compromise 
    your mental health.

5. Delegate tasks to capable others.



6. Simplify and unclutter your life.
7. Less is more. (Although one is often not enough, two are often too many.)
8. Allow extra time to do things and to get to places.
9. Pace yourself. Spread out big changes and difficult projects over time;
    don't lump the hard things all together.
10. Take one day at a time.

11. Separate worries from concerns. If a situation is a concern, find out what 

      God would have 
you do and let go of the anxiety. If you can't do anything 

      about a situation, forget it.


12. Live within your budget; don't use credit cards for ordinary purchases.                     

13. Have backups; an extra car key in your wallet, an extra house key 

      buried in the garden, 
extra stamps, etc.

14. K.M.S. (Keep Mouth Shut).  This single piece of advice can prevent 

      an enormous amount of trouble. 

15. Do something for the Kid in You everyday.
