We’re replaying our most popular episodes from the past year. In case you missed it or want a reminder, here is the most listened to episode in December 2021.
Why is it that we get 37 of the 42 things done on our to-do list and all we think about are the 5 things we didn’t get done. Friends, this has got to stop.
Transcript:
Welcome to Everyday Happiness where we create lasting happiness, in 2 minutes a day, through my signature method of Intentional Margins® (creating harmony between your to-dos and your priorities), happiness science, and musings about life.
I'm your host Katie Jefcoat, okay, who’s with me. We get 37 of the 42 things done on our to-do list and all we think about are the 5 things we didn’t get done. Right? I’m not sure why we do this to ourselves, but us women, especially us women, we’re so good at this and it seems to be universal.
I’ve added to my daily page this section that says “yesterday was a success because:” Why, because I feel we need to be reminded of all the accomplishments and the feeling of what we did do, as we start our new day, instead of putting that guilt on ourselves of what we didn’t get done.
Honestly, we could be superwoman and we are never getting done all the things that are on our own to-do lists. I mean, who do we think we are when we are writing out our tasks for the day? It’s super-human the amount of tasks we think we can get done, let alone the caring for others and little humans in our lives that need us and they don’t care if it’s convenient - right?
Today, I wanted to tell you that I feel you. I feel that heavy to-do list. I feel the spinning of all the plates. And I want to invite you to take a deep breath. And honor what you’ve accomplished. I’m doing this right along with you. We deserve to be busy and balanced when we set our Intentional Margins® and live in our priorities and have that clarity that guides us throughout the day. You can do it. I believe in you. If you need a little pep talk, jump into my DMs and I’ll reply to you personally. Until next time.
