    Default Time Organization

    This is definitely a quote that I am going to have to keep in the forefront of my mind. I am a person who winds up doing everything myself because I am always sure that it either won't get done or it won't get done correctly. I do it at work and at home. The result is that I often feel overworked and underappreciated and wind up sacrificing fun activities for myself to complete the extra work. I do it to myself. So, when I saw this quote in Organizing Plain and Simple by Donna Smallin, it hit home.

    "Every time you say yes to something, you are saying no to something you've already said yes to."
