With my new responsibilities, I have been way busier. In my head, I complain a lot about the new amount of meetings I am in and how busy I seem and how I wish I had more time for the things that really matter.

Yesterday, I actually had an afternoon with no meetings. When the time came, I couldn’t figure out what I should be doing. I sat there thinking “I know I have a ton of things to do, but what are they?” I am used to being so busy with running around, that I have a difficult time living a different way.

I am going to try writing down the important things so I can remember them when I have time that isn’t filled up; a list of critically important tasks that I can always pull out in those moments.
