HELLO D LADY AND D CATHY and D TWINS AND ALL. I have been thinking a lot of my dad's KISS talk - Keep it simple sweetie.
Simple isn't always so simple to plan for when you have a brain like mine
I used to think that everyone were super efficient and that I was missing some sort of gene because I couldn't keep up...
Simple is not that easy for me!
My brain: I think of my brain as a bunch of roads. Organized people have a few roads they go on each day - (plans, ideas, breaking things down into workable steps). They can see that by taking one road and staying on it that they get to their destination and actually finish things.
My brain is thousands OF beginning trips.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FXfGZF2-sUU I think of my brain like the cars driving around the arc de triumphe and I am the one having no idea how to drive it. (the circle around the arc de triumphe has 12 streets off the main circle - my brain usually has a thousand ways I could go
)
I still have the want to go onto every highway or street I come to. D kat has been like a GPS for me. she simplifies my routes to what is doable. It's crazy! I am finding by simplifying (retraining my brain- saying no to my normal (hahahaha) brain) and doing routines, being flexible to change up my week (moving things to another month, week or day), that I am actually getting more things done.
I don't know what happens to me though -
I can focus with my planner but when it's time to plan my week ahead (before my weekly call with d kat) that my brain starts thinking "new possibilities" and "I can do it all" "I am supposed to do it all" perfectionism thinking etc.
So my goal today: is plan on simple. Pray that it works
and enjoy the day.. remembering constantly PIE - well until my brain goes ping pong-y again...
OOPS ... SQUIRREL!!!!
