I complain about my time...of not having much... not using it well...or the lack of it. Yes, I even added the fact that having 2 young girls in my charge took most of my time.The latter is maybe half true but although having small children can be overwhelming it is just a part of the whole story. There's housework, plants to water, garden to tend, lesson to study, homework to finish etc.etc. I even said that there's no time to exercise. I can go on and on because the list is endless. Alright, there's 24 hours and I use the quarter of this sleeping. So tell me why do I complain?
...to be continued.
Complaining makes it easier not to face the important things to be done (which in a real sense means that I am in my lazy mode). It can keep me away from pressing matters and I can go on with my day accomplishing some stuff. Yes, SOME STUFF and that's it. The essentials are left behind, kept away for another day because "there's not much time". Then I came to a point where I complain that I always complain. Are you following me? Anyway, at least I can still have time to analyze this. See, I have so much time and just not making use of it.
The Great Awakening
As I get tired of my "time mismanagement" I decided to do something about it.
First is to change my thinking and face the real reasons behind it, which are:
- not being able to identify my priority.
- becoming engrossed in a new project.
- fear of not doing it right or failing.
- I am being utterly lazy.

I always say that my life began when I met Yann in 1995 & started appreciating life in 1999, the year Chris was born. There are times that Chris is a real pain in the a... (where the sun don't shine)! But he gives so much pride in the family & I strongly believe that he will be one of my chances of becoming a millionaire one day !
To hell w/ laundry & ironing, continue having a great time w/ yr girls while they're growing up. Ang tagal mo silang hinintay, hello ?
PS How could you really complain about not having enough time when you obviously have time updating your blog ;-) which btw, I find really cute. Cheers !
I feel that priority is taking care of your child/children. Then managing your money as best as possible with a family while being able to enjoy some of it for you and your man. any other thing is secondary....now you know how i more or less prioritize my time :)
that's exactly my point--being engrossed into something(updating Blog) that's not necessarily the priority of the day. I have to sched my time here and do other things.
My complaining about time turned out to be positive coz I am learning to prioritize.
thanks for stopping by!
