Sink or Swim

Sink or swim

We are either treading water trying not to sink in life or we are swimming towards our goals. There is only one or the other. I became all too familiar with this recently as I was dealing with a challenge that came up unexpectedly. I was making progress for several months in a row and felt like I was on a roll. Then the challenge appeared and my progress came to a screeching halt.

As much as we would like to think that we can multi-task, sometimes it is much easier said than done. It’s hard to hit home runs if all you are thinking about is not striking out. It is also hard to save for a down payment if all you keep thinking about is paying your rent and keeping food on the table.

Changing your focus creates magic in your life. I will confirm that, as soon as the challenge was overcome the progress returned 10 fold. Don’t think about trying to make some progress, become steadfast in your approach and heed what Yoda said and “Do or do not, there is no try.”

“Mulit-tasking is merely the opportunity to screw up more than one thing at a time.” Gary W Keller

Today I am thankful for the lessons learned from challenges and the feeling of relief of over coming them, that extra hour of sleep as it felt good at the time and friendly reminders for overdue tasks.

I look forward to hearing from you in regard to your mortgage needs.
