“If a thing is just barely worth doing, just barely do it.”

Juggling 4 is 1000 times harder than juggling 3. Instead of becoming a better juggler it’s better to reduce the number of things being juggled.

Family
Work
Self

“Always put off a put-offable in favor of a now-or-never.”

Stewardship – focus on those things where you have stewardship. (Family, Work, Self)

Don’t make your list (what do I have to do today?) first. Start the day by asking yourself “what is one thing I choose to do today for my three key stewardships?”

Do this for 7 days.

Do the three choose to do’s first. This will rebalance your priorities.

Serendipity – a state of mind whereby a person through awareness and sensitivity frequently finds something better than that which he was seeking. If we will stay in that frame of mind we will achieve better results than what we aimed for to begin with.

We are really trying to balance structure with spontaneity, stewardship with flexibility.
