.. And we are not talking Orange County here folks.
This is “end of year” season. The concerts, open houses, school events, choir performances, track meets are coming at me at such a fast pace my online calendar and handheld device can barely keep up.
Oh, that’s right. It’s May again. I should have known. It happens every May and September.
Sound familiar? When events collide all at once to load up our scheduling demands that “O” word often creeps into our vocabulary – Overwhelm.
Counter with with “C” word – control. The more control you can muster the more easily you will glide through this maze of events like an organizing time professional. Anticipation will help with the control. Look out to the next couple of weeks and see what’s coming. The more you can anticipate the less likely things will catch you off guard and the more likely you are to feel in control.
Follow up with the “R” word – Relax. This too will pass. Summer is coming. And beside, the kids will only be young once. Enjoy.
