Overdue!

First of all, I haven’t updated my blog in ages, so I am way Overdue!

I also have not been doing much personal journaling which is in not in line with my individual goal to journal every day. Journaling is such a great release and also extremely helpful in decision making and analysing your emotions and tracking your personal growth.

Most of my close friends know that I am very big on lists …to-do list, list of goals, grocery lists, wish lists, friends list, places to visit list, music to buy/download lists …the list goes on.

The last few months I feel like I’ve been chasing this goal of having all my lists/tasks/to dos in order and complete. However, it seems that I am consistently …OVERDUE.

I use an application called Toodledo which I love to track my TO DOs. I’m constantly moving little notes here and there to my Toodledo list and each time I turn on my iTouch this RED notification circle indicates that I have X number (53 as of today) OVERDUE tasks. Unfortunately, that doesn’t count the TO DOs that lingering on the back of a notecard and the one in my outlook “notes.”

This feeling of feeling behind looms over me. In the midst of attempting to find my peace, I am internally reminded that this LIFE is not a race and it is not a competition. There is no reward at the end because all your TO DOs were complete. I know this all to well because I had this internal conversation before, but some lessons who have to revisit.

It is cliche, but I am (and you too) exactly where I am suppose to be at this exact time and place. The focus should be on enjoying the journey and not racing to the finish line.

I have a lot more to say …but im Overdue for an appointment.

One last thing, I have this saying I use a lot lately …”I need to get my ducks in a row.”

I’ll continue to monitor my ducks but Im going to stop trying to force them in a row. I hear my small voice on the inside saying …”relax and enjoy, the ducks will line up in the exact position they are suppose to.” …maybe even a circle!
