Sunday Reminder
Each Sunday I'll find an older post pertaining to the current week's theme, polish it up, and re-share it.
Here's today's "Sunday Reminder"
The Opposite of Busy
[September 11, 2019]
The opposite of busy is not laziness. Or listlessness.
The opposite of busy is intentional.
Intentionality always begins with the question, “What is this or that for?”, and then when that is answered, asks, “Is it worth it?”
Or, to ask it in a different way: “Is this or that an investment in lasting value, sincere relationship, deeper work, or improved health?” (If you’re not sure, the answer is probably NO.)
What if on Sunday night for one hour—heck, for 15 minutes, even—we looked over the coming week, and asked ourselves that question about each 'thing' in our calendar?
I’m beginning to think that changing the world begins this way.
Everyday folks being intentional about everyday things.
Is it an investment in lasting value?
Is it an investment in healthy, sincere relationship?
Does it contribute to deeper work?
Will it improve my health or the health of those around me?
