More Time!

When I realized that I haven't been keeping up with posting new articles the first thought that came to mind was, "I wish I had more time!"

Now, I wasn't asking, like Hezekiah, for more time to be added on to the end of my life.  Obviously, hat wouldn't help me write more often.  I was wishing for more time in my day. More time to do all the things I need to do and all the things I want to do.

No sooner had I expressed this wish to myself when another thought occurred to me.  I'm not going to get any more time than I already have.  Now, I know that is so obvious that a 5th grader would get it.  But being obvious and being acknowledged are not the same.  I have the same amount of time in my day as you do.  In fact, I have the same amount of time in my day as the busiest, most productive man I know.  And he has time to post articles to his blog a couple of times a week.

Since I am in an "obvious" mood right now, here is another obvious fact.  If I have all the time I am going to get in my day and I "don't have time" to update Press On then one of two things needs to happen.  Either I give up all hope of consistently updating my blog or I give up whatever it is that I am doing instead of writing.

Okay, so as soon as I wrote that last sentence I felt like someone had just punched me in the chest.  Who knew that the obvious could also be profound? 

I'm going to need to give this some serious thought.  I'll get back to you later.

Meanwhile, pour another cup of coffee and consider what your doing with your time.
