Do you struggle with over-commitment? We live in a society that seems to thrive in chaos and busyness without stopping to ponder how that may affect our performance, family life, friends and even our own mental health.

Choosing to slow down, set priorities and say “no” is very freeing. It is important to remember, that we are all given a set amount of hours in a day with which we should strive to perform our very best. Next time you are faced with a choice to commit, take a moment to decide if you have time to give your very best.

In fact, take this moment to self-reflect and to evaluate all the activities in your life.  Do you need to re-arrange your priorities? Are there activities and responsibilities you could eliminate? Learning the power of saying “no” and setting priorities will allow you to be fully invested in the commitments of your choosing.
