Sorry we haven't posted in over a week...what a crazy week it has been! Today I am trying to play catch-up with my house and get things cleaned up from the weekend, and I was feeling quite overwhelmed this morning. Just making a mental list of all the things that needed to be done made me want to go back to bed. Then I was reminded by my husband to start with something small. He said that as I got small things done then I would be able to see my progress, which would build my confidence and make me more motivated to keep going. (I then asked him if he'd been reading my blog!) What a great reminder! So then I reminded myself that whether it's catching up from the weekend, re-doing a room, working on a big project for work or planning a big event, when you have a large and overwhelming task to complete, break it up into smaller parts. (Or in the words of a song from my son's favorite TV show, "If a word's too big to build, just break it down and you'll be thrilled. You can handle it bit by bit!") So, here's the moral of today's story: Break it down and handle it bit by bit! Big projects don't have to be overwhelming, just take it one small part at a time!
Thanks for the inspiration honey!
