There is that saying if you want something doing give it to a busy person, never before has a truer word been spoken.
As I have referenced before; until recently my work/life balance was so skewed in the wrong direction I surprise I managed to function as a human being outside of the office and my to do lists of doom never got finished, as a certain someone who receives them each week will testify. However being so busy meant that when I wanted something doing I moved mountains to get it done.
Now I have prioritised my life differently I am actually even more busy most of the day, mainly because I have crammed the same amount of work into fewer hours. I never thought that would be possible but I was wrong there.
And yet despite having far more to do and less time to do it I am actually being more time efficient and getting more stuff done. I am certain there must be a breaking point where someone physically can't take on any more to do but right now I am finding that both productivity and writing time are both on the up.
Which means I have reasons to smile every single day! If you want something doing, give it to a busy person and make sure they have a reason to smile. You'll be surprised how much we can get done.
