I've always been in a hurry. From the time I was a child until this very moment, I've been in a rush. I like getting on to the next thing. Why? To what end?
I think I'm afraid of slowing down or something. I pad my schedule so tight and am always far too optimistic about what I can reasonably accomplish in a day (optimism is not always a gift with time management).
To that end, I'm going to try and impose a beautiful constraint on myself. To identify the top three things I need to get done in my day (one each for home, work and me) and to not let myself move on to something else until they are accomplished. To word it in the way of the book: to live my life's mission within the confines of the time I have and while taking care of myself.
My life's mission is my ambition and the other two are constraints of time and method respectively. It is the creative tension between the ambition and the constraint(s) that enable us to come up with novel solutions. I have to break the path that I'm walking on. It's a path of my past and not of my future.
