Time Management | |
|
I read an article recently and it surprised me.
It asked that I think of three things that I strongly disliked doing and makes my energy level - low. Then, once that was complete - STOP doing those activities. Time Management .... how? Perhaps, you will need to delegate these activities. Can you barter? Really - stop and think - what are the possibilities!!?!!
Next, was concerning the people we spend our time with who are NOT adding anything to our lives. They, too, are zapping your energy. You need to increase your circle of acquaintances. Again - Time Management?
Take the time to evaluate [analyze] - explore the results you want to accomplish and who you want to be with. You will know when you have found a workable solution for you; you will feel revived - even excited!!
Stop doing and find balance 'in being'. Have a plan - but let it be a flexible plan. Do take time to stop and smell the roses, the sand at the beach or the fresh mountain air. |

Christian Giving Circle - Have you Given? | |
|
This is an organization that could use your assistance. Yes- I am a Member. The motto of the The Christian Giving Circle - "We can't do everything but together we can do something". Their mission is to make a difference in the lives of families and individuals who need assistance [monetary and non-monetary assistance and resources] in the DMV {District of Columbia, Maryland and Virginia}. They make their request known to The CGC. Upon approval - the service or need (medicine, food, diapers, clothing, utility bill paid, etc.) is taken care of by The CGC. This means that needed items are purchased by The CGC and taken to the individual/family in need. The CGC would pay the outstanding bill - in part or in its entirety. You know that your contribution goes where it is intended. They are a 501(c)3 Non-profit organization. In addition to new members, they are looking for strategic partnerships to increase their resources capacity.
