"Work is a rubber ball. If you drop it, it will bounce back. The other four balls - family, health, friends, integrity - are made of glass. If you drop one of these, it will be irrevocably scuffed, nicked, perhaps even shattered." -Attributed to several different sources
What do you think about every day? Chances are most of the things that occupy your thoughts are either unimportant in the grand scheme of things, or are things outside of your control.
This week's action: Make a list of all the things on your mind at this very moment. After you've listed everything, put each item into one of two categories:
- Things I Worry About That Matter, and
- Things I Worry About That Aren't Important in the Grand Scheme of Things
Why we're doing it: We can refocus the energy we spend worrying about unimportant things to "protect our balls."
And it's also the last Friday in the month, so make sure you get in a Month End Action Blitz. Complete the tasks you'd set out to do this month, but haven't gotten around to.
