Shake it off

move on chris.com
I have been completely thrown off task the last 24 hours. In a complete moment of transparency, it drives me nuts. But as I sit here and cool down, I go back to the idea on time spent on things I can control and things I can not.

No need to spend time on things I can't control that throw me off task. The best play in that game is to move on, get them done, and get back on track as soon as you can. It took my years to learn this and I still struggle with it today. My first reaction is to get mad and try to force my weak little will on trying to change things I simply can not. What's next? You guessed it, the situation does not change and in fact gets worse. Result = wasted time and wasted energy.

So to remind myself to just move on. I wrote myself a reminder of this in my Master Book, the saying: move on chris.com. Whenever I get off course and frustrated by influences beyond my control but yet need to be addressed, I simply say move on chris.com
