This One Is On Me (what do you suggest?)

I’m currently coughing up a storm scarier than a real life sharknado. And I need your help.

This post is about me being human. I don’t always follow my own advice. I make mistakes, sometimes the same one multiple times (more on that in a moment). If I did do everything I preached, well, I wouldn’t be writing, I would be too busy doing it all. Actually, there’s not even enough time to do everything that I preach. That’s my problem. That’s why I have run myself down sick. I think there is.

I am calling on you to make this post into something remarkable. You’re going to become the leader, the sharer, the writer; not me. I will even set you up with the context and offer a few questions to get your mind working. Note: I don’t care about how well you write. If you have an idea, share it. Remember, the point here is that we are all only human.

Seven months ago I wrote a post about Biting Off More Than You Can Chew.

Now, this post that you’re reading, I have to say that I’ve crashed and need your input. Am I wrong for biting off more than I can chew? Is it okay to feel insignificant when taking on a lighter load? Will biting off more than I can chew get me to my goals any quicker than pacing myself at the dinner table so-to-speak?

I’ve battled this for some time. In the past, I have believed that by biting off more than I can chew, then crashing, then repeating those that again, that I build up my endurance. I’m not so sure anymore.

So, yes, this might not work, but I am asking for your help? What do you think?

    Biting off more than you can chew is just that…more than you can handle. Would you rather put a bunch of things on your plate and do a half assed job or would you put a few less things on your plate and be able to give 100% at them all.

    What if I were to say that I was giving 100% at all of them, but would crash after a week or two of it? Resulting in a restart. Sort of like the concept of two steps forward, one back.

    Its all about balance! doing everything, even at a 100% will not get you to the top faster. I believe continue getting really good at one thing at a steady pace works best.(no burn out) also very important to make time for god (whatever your god may be), family and friends. Nothing wrong with working hard but not day and night. pacing yourself is easy once you decide to pace yourself, its just like running, once you find your pace it feels like your walking! Get well soon! And thank you for all your blogs. We would be happy with one or two blogs a month from you to help you with your balance.
