Why Am I So Behind?

Q: Why am I constantly behind?

A: You’re not. You’re just doing too much.

Q: But I planned everything!

A: Sure — but did you plan your energy? Your margin? The unexpected?

Q: So what do I do?

A: Start doing less.
Say no more often.
Plan like you’re human, not a robot.

Behind isn’t a flaw.
It’s a flag.
Pay attention to what it’s trying to tell you.
