Permission Granted to Enjoy Spring Break

VacationThe kids are on Spring break. I am not.

But I work for myself. So theoretically I can stop working any time I choose.

But then life does not happen “theoretically,” does it?

And so I look through my to-do list, my project list and my contact list, and I think, “I’ll never breath again, much less enjoy Spring break!”

Those of you who know me, know that I am anything but driven. So finding an excuse for a diversion in not my particular difficulty.

Allowing myself to enjoy the diversion, though, is.

So here’s what I’m doing. I’ve planned a few activities with the family over Spring break. They are on the calendar. Anything else can take place around those fixed points of light.

Instead of Spring break slipping through my fingers, for example, I’ll be visiting colleges with my daughter for several days. It’s been on the calendar. Set aside before anything else had a chance to compete for the time. And, believe me, now that we are getting ready to depart, you wouldn’t believe the number of things competing for the time.

Let me know what you do to set aside time without being haunted by everything else that you are not doing.
