a small secret to happiness
Me January 27th. 2007, 11:55pmI think I’ve discovered one of life’s hidden secrets… maybe…
With what life throws at you each day, the idea of coming home from work and unwinding watching tv, surfing the internet, eating, lying down to rest, etc, is very attractive. It becomes easy to put things you know you need to do off and find excuses not to do them. Well, t think I’ve re-learned a lesson I’ve tried to teach myself more than once: quit putting things off and just do ‘em!
Allow me to explain… over the last three months, I’ve spent a lot more time at home than I’ve had in a long time. Because of this, I’ve had time to work on things (honey-do’s, for example) that I’ve been putting off for some time… and some of them are regular chores. Life seems so much better when you just do things the first opportunity you have to tackle them… and for those regular things (like chores), its easier to go back and do them again and again after they’ve become habits.
