Recently my life has felt more and more like a whirlwind. Endless to do list and pressures of not being able to get everything done. Intersting enough my clients all seem to be saying the same thing. We are on that treadmill moving fast but not sure how much we are really getting ahead. Can anyone relate? It's at these times, I take to reflect. Why am I doing my profession? What purpose does it fulfill for me? What is important? What are my goals this year? This month? What are my important task today? Next month? Next year? How is my time being spent and what can I give up? Asking myself these questions assures I am focusing on the important and reminds me of my purpose. If you're on that treadmill, take time to step off and focus on the important that treadmill will be waiting for you when you finish.
"The creative individual has the capacity to free himself from the web of social pressures in which the rest of us are caught. He is capable of questioning the assumptions that the rest of us are accept."
