For as long as I can remember, I’ve bitten off way more than I could chew. Whether it be DIY distractions, social events, or artichokes, I’ve always over-committed to what could be done on any given day and then, at the end of each given day, I’d beat myself up for not getting everything done.

This week’s affirmation reminds us that all tasks are not created equal and there’s more than enough time to knock out what’s important. Say it out loud, rinse, repeat and then pass the aioli when you find yourself taking on too much or needing to say no a little more often.

I have all the time that I need to do everything I want to do.
