All Work and All Play

Sometimes it is that which seems the least logical that is the correct answer. When you have tried all of the traditional ways of doing things, try something non-traditional. What have you got to lose?

For instance, you are stressed and overwhelmed with work, chores and to-dos. 

You cannot in your wildest imagination see it all getting done.

This is the perfect time to take a break.

Does this sound illogical? It is not.

You see, the problem is not that you have too much to do, the problem is that you cannot see yourself accomplishing it and this causes you stress.

The stress is your problem, not your tasks. 

When you feel completely overwhelmed, take 5 to 10 minutes (more if you have it) and play. Stop thinking about work and do something fun. 

This is the ultimate purpose for work. You make money, you pay for your food and living space so that you can take the time to have fun. If this is not your goal, then you need to rethink your work priorities.

Don't worry that you won't get it done. A little play time (dancing, singing, walking in nature etc.) will clear your head and organize your thoughts so that your work is more efficient. 

You will work smarter rather than harder and be absolutely amazed with what you can accomplish.

Start enjoying your life,whether you have a lot to do, or not. Otherwise, you are missing the point of this incarnation. ~Silas
