As much as we may not like to admit it, there are two types of people in the world, those who …

  • Can’t seem to stop working
  • Can’t seem to start working

Neither are the optimum position to be in!  In fact, in our own ways, we’d all say we seek to find a balance between the two (and away from the one we naturally gravitate towards).

The truth is, there’s ALWAYS going to be something that we can find to BE busy with! And being busy isn’t bad, as long as there’s balance! I’m learning there are two types of busy, those who are…

  • “busy doing work” (busy)
  • “doing busy work” (busyness)

Those “busy doing work” are simply focused on carrying out the vision, they lead & inspire the masses to join in & plan ahead! Those “doing busy work” just like to feel needed more than carry out the vision, delegation is a no-no & proactive planning is a theory!

How “busy” we are sometimes can’t be helped (right away), but the motives leading us to that busyness can !  We have to MAKE time to…

  • Think
  • Plan
  • Reflect
  • Review
  • Rest

And allow ourselves to say “NO” to the trap of busyness! :-)

Just what I’m learning… :-)
