Every morning a man wakes me up around 3 with a email. My friend Howiej. He sends me two positive sentences everyday and sometimes they just hit home. Todays message was:
Janet, the best days of your life come in small steps. You don't have to do it all at once. Time passes only one second at a time, so pace yourself.
Pace myself? Who is he kidding. I was taught to believe that being successful meant completing as many things as I could everyday. What about my special talent of being a unsuccessful multitasker? Cassidy often complains about my broken english conversation with her while I am working on something else, usually I have no recollection of what was said. Okay Howiej, I will get serious and you are right. There are a few projects on my desk not started. This is not because I am pacing myself, its just because the job seems so daunting I don't know where to start. So taking a small step in the right direction. My first step is for Coffee, helps me get into the present.
If you want to receive a hopeful note from howiej in the mix of your coupons, and sale emails this is his email address. It always worth the read. howard@howardparsons.com
