Yeah, that list. Basically, I now have a chart at the end of it, and tick off what I have done, and then do the things I haven’t got to the next day, or the next or the next. For instance, my daughter was accepted to read Theology at Cambridge today, so all we have done is rejoice and eat cookies, and no work has been done at all!!

Just recently the Lord spoke to me about “baby steps” for the coming year, and that was just what I needed to hear. I’d been feeling stuck, overwhelmed by the many obstacles I’ve been facing with regard to my most important value-related goals. I now see that I was waiting for some BIG all-encompassing solution to present itself. But as someone (I can’t remember who) wrote recently, there’s real power in incremental progress.Actually I was a little concerned for you after I read your recent post filled with new year’s resolutions. But I was reassured to read here that you are determined to slow down. I too want to do that, which means I have to discard my fears about what would happen when I neglect some of the seemingly urgent items on my to-do list.

Beth, so glad you liked it!!
