All in a Day, the 2-minute rule.

Have you ever really thought about how much can be accomplished in just a day? It can be quite a lot, actually, and for the most part it happens without seeming to think about it. Errands here and there, work, meals, phone calls, being there for a friend, taking the dog for a walk. The list goes on. And, the thoughts we have around what we do before we do it. It's said we have an incredible number of thoughts each day, something like 4,000 . . . . or 40,000 . . . or some number equally as unreal. Who figured that out? Anyway, that said, from the big to the small we can do a lot in a day. Or, we can let the day slip by. A day never to come again. A well-organized Type-A friend of mine has a 2-minute rule. If you can do something in 2 minutes or less, do it now so you don't have to come back to it later. He's quite efficient, sickeningly so sometimes. But, he gets a lot done and he is upbeat about it. He welcomes challenges and "things to do." I do, too . . . including taking time to savor the things I've done.

What about you?
