Lack of Focus

There are about a million things that I would love to do. I'm exaggerating. More like one hundred thousand.

The problem is that I'm not doing a very good job at any of them and not doing a very good job at prioritizing the ones I should.

Below is a list of what I'm working on how it's going (crappy).

God - man, I always wish I prayed more, studied more, and meditated more on what He would have me do but honestly, this is probably the one I put on the back burner the most and, of course, is probably the most important one.

Wife - I love that woman but just like God, some times easy to look over. However, she does have an advantage over God in that if I'm our too much, I hear about it very directly! Ha ha. But seriously, I love spending time with her and talking with her but again, I slack on it.

First Glance - My list of things to-do for Monday night Young Adults seems to be growing and I can't seem to zero in on what to do first or how to do it. This, of course, would be the time when I should really listen to the Big Boss but, as you read in the first section, my time with Him is lacking right now. Oy. So I struggle to lead this very important program.

Blog - I really like writing on this thing. I'd like to get it to where I was posting at least once or twice a week but alas, no go. I have a couple of bigger articles I'd like to write on (anarchy!) but finding the time to read and write is taxing.

There are more things - video games, friends, family, reading, movies, discipleship, running, getting into shape, gardening, and more! I'm sure when I get done writing this article I'll think of ten other things (oh, just thought of one) that I would love to work on.

Anyone out there have any thoughts on how to prioritize? How to focus on what's important? How to create more hours in the week? Now that would be great!

Feel free to post your thoughts in the comments.
