These past few weeks I've been snapping, editing, writing, baking, making, sticking, sanding, hammering, stapling, painting, drawing, merchandising, selling... I've been a little busy! Busyness is strange. Sometimes it can feel like you've been swallowed up by an endless list of to-do's that keeps on getting bigger. But then sometimes, it all just sweeps by in a second. Confusing right? Or maybe not! For me, if I'm whole-heartedly loving what I'm doing, the hours skip by without even a thought. But the real challenge is when something comes along that, let's just say, isn't so appealing and easy to love. I'm quite a positive person but it's hard to keep it if all you can think about is avoiding the task in front of you. We all do it, no hiding! I've learnt that if you dabble a little in the avoided task, sandwich it between something that is more up your street, you slowly break down what you need to do. It sounds easy and I'm sure many do it, but instead of forever avoiding the unwanted, tackle it a little at a time, in between what you do love. At the end of the day, you cannot love everything. So, for those to-do's you're trying to dodge, not anymore. Start small, add some fun, but most of all, start!
