Chaos




Lately my life seems out of control. Like I am constantly having to play catch up.
I can't seem to get a handle on anything.
I am constantly having to do things at the last minute,
always feeling behind and always regretting not doing the things I love.
Feeling friendships slipping away
not having time to spend with the people I want to the most
I hate it.
How do I get it back?

1. Go to bed earlier and get up earlier.

2. Watch way less TV and movies.

3. Make a list every day to help yourself stay on track and not waste time.

4. Use your "down" moments to connect with friends, even just for a quick "hello"

Just a few ideas, all of which I need to do myself, also!!!

You can do it, Keish, if you want it more than you want the time-wasting stuff.

Love you more.....

Agree with your mom totally. Here are the things I would add:

1. Prioritize!!! Even if school has to beat out things you "want" to do much more... school really should be a priority. Then you might not be playing catch-up all the time. It's only for a season...

2. Top of the priority list: time spent with the Lord!!! BEFORE everything else - this WILL change your prospective AND give you control back (well... giving Him control back, lets you feel less pressure to do).

3. Be intentional about everything! From a sermon several weeks ago: "You have ALL the time that there is, just as much as everyone else does... so what is your excuse?"

4. Maybe take a few days to "detox." Unplug from the world, make goals for you life, seek direction from Him.

Praying for you sweet sister of mine!
