Pace Yourself~~~~~


We spend our day putting out fires. Gotta do this, gotta get that done...trying to multi-task and shove in as much as we can into one day. Whose to say this is the way it has to be all of the time? I know there will be days when we have to take life by the horns and do it this way, but have you ever thought about just pacing yourself. Don't worry it will get done, may just not be when they want it to get done or when you think it needs to get done, but we're all going to get to the finish line.

Basically, life is one long marathon and its easy for us who are used to doing so much and having so much to do to start out the gate with full steam. But what we don't think about and realize is that coming out the gate in this fashion is likely to burn us out very early in the race. So, we need to make our approach to life just like we would a marathon - run for distance, not for speed.

In other words, just relax some and pace yourself... I know there will be times when we have to kick it into high gear and when those times come shift the gear stick and go for it, but for all of those other times when its really not a race~~~~~just pace yourself. In the end it will all get done and be just fine.
