Love this…thanks for sharing…happy wednesday!
I am SO feeling this right now. I’m taking your One Little Word class, I’m in Lain’s LOAD challenge for February, and I’m working on starting my own Etsy shop. My mantra for the last couple weeks has been exactly the same: one thing at a time, one thing at a time…
You have no idea how much I needed to see this reminder this morning. Thank you!
amen
A perfect reminder for me just now, thanks.
I needed to see this today, thank you so much.
I love this……I really needed to see and read this on this Wednesday morning.
Thanks Ali! I also needed this reminder.
Thanks for the reminder! I needed this today!
Thanks so much. I am going to keep this in my mind’s eye today as I try to get all of it done today…well, no, not all of it. Never all of it.
Definitely needed to hear this today!
aka “Do the next thing.”
When I have one million things to do & feel the pressure of it all, I take a deep breath and tell myself to do the next thing.
Hope you have a peaceful & productive day as you focus on “one thing at a time.” !
I needed to see those words big, red, and on paper today!
Thanks again for the inspiration…and for helping me to plant my feet firmly on the ground to accomplish what needs to be done…one thing at a time!
Thanks for the reminder. Very timely.
mmmmm….found myself exhaling. a perfect start to my day.
Wow, how timely! Just woke up to find two kids need to stay home today because they are sick, and I have a giant to do list. I really needed this today. What a great reminder to just sit with the kids and do what is most important…love them today! Thanks, Ali
Easier said than done.
This is a perfect reminder. Exactly what I am working on, too. Keeping things simple. Thank you.
Multitasking has been an evil concept foisted upon us imho. Great advice.
I agree with you totally about multi-tasking. The only time it’s really appropriate is when one task needs to be unattended for a longish amount of time and then you can do something else. In other words: put the laundry in and while it’s washing do another task, or mix up the dough for bread and while it rises for two hours you can do something else. But even this is really doing one thing at a time!
I have the exact same feelings about multitasking. Often if I do that evil thing everything ends up a mess. Finish one thing all the way; cross it off; move on. What a wonderful concept!
Thanks. I needed that.
~such truth in these simple little words…something i am trying very hard as of late to grasp hold of and remind myself of often…in due time it all becomes complete…much love light and blessings be with you and yours~
Thanks! This would make a good tattoo. { if I had tattoos
}
why is something {that should be} so simple…so hard? a perfect reminder for us all mid-week…thank you.
Seriously – a great reminder today. I’m trying to work on 4 things at once and nothing is getting done. Time to put away my computer and roll up my sleeves. Thanks for the little kick in the pants.
So true Ali; we have just moved house and I am feeling totally overwhelmed and exhausted and extremely happy all at the same time! I needed to be reminded that we simply can’t get it all sorted in a few days!
This is SO True Ali — I actually have almost the same thing posted right above my computer screen at work in all caps:
ONE TASK AT A TIME
I always need the reminder too!
~Beth
Thanks for the reminder in the midst of an overcommitted month.
what a beautiful reminder ali! thank you for a little bit of calm during an otherwise very stressful week. i appreciate you and the story you have to share more than you’ll know.
is in keeping with my choice for One Little Word… “wait”. Love it! Thanks for the encouragment.
thank you for the reminder, Ali. I needed it today. Happy Wednesday!
Phew. I needed that.
You nailed it, again, Ali. And so true for a mid-week posting. Everything seems to pile up on a Wednesday, and then, frenetic activity intensifies.
Thanks for the simple reminder for some simplicity in our lives!
i SOO need this! Yesterday I was crocheting, watching a movie and reading a blog … granted I can crochet without looking and I’ve watched the movie a million times … but crazy. I was reminded of this very same thing … but shame on me – I’m eating and reading your blog .. I really need to find a better place to eat!
Thanks. I needed that today
Thanks Ali! Right now, i’m scanning really old family photos from a book my grandfather made… am mightily resisting the temptation to get up from my chair and putter around my studio while stuff scans! Can’t wait to print out a copy of the book for myself and use the images in Y&T and around our house!
Multi-tasking is sooooo over-rated
Thank you for this Ali, I just made this and put it up on my wall once I saw this quote. I love it: http://blogg.joona.se/gallery/1452.jpg
Thanks Ali
A great reminder! Thank you!!!
Thank you, Ali! Just balancing homeschooling, house chores, and time for myself has been crazy. So needed to be reminded of this. Thank you. =)
definitely on the same page, thanks for the reminder–I needed that:)
I think I needed to see this today too. I’m overloading myself with too many things on my list and it’s not getting me very far!
YES. This has always been a big one for me. SO much to do…it can be super hard to slow down and focus. Thanks Ali!
After reading this I put down my iPhone & enjoyed breastfeeding my baby girl. Love the concept of ON THING AT A TIME!!
Yup, this is the big one for me. Very guilty of multitasking too much, not being in the moment and concentrating on one thing. This is one of the things I’m working on this whole year in my quest to simplify and improve my life. Love all your advice here and on facebook!
*exhale* ahhhhhh….relaxed, wonderful, reminded. THANK YOU. I needed that Ali!
a great reminder! thanks!
