I had a lovely conversation with my friend, Shelly Tucker, this afternoon! She reminded me of her Rule of Tens. Whenever you are faced with things you really don’t want to do, do ten things you don’t want to do, and then treat yourself to something you would rather be doing.
\nYou can do ten minutes of a chore that you HAVE to finish, and then do ten minutes of something that’s more fun.
\nShe said that there is a caveat. If you choose to do ten really simple things, like, picking up a paperclip that has been lying on the floor, you are obligated to do 10 times 10! It makes it worth doing the tougher stuff, don’t you think?
\nI love her approach to getting things done. I need to apply it to my life.
\nThanks, Shelly, for the visit, your friendship, and for such good advice!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
