Too Busy

By Mike Monahan, CEO and executive director, Life Success Seminars Inc.

Have you ever noticed how most people spend little or no time on what they're most passionate about? It's as if they believe that doing what they love is a luxury. I love to paint, but I just don't have time. I love writing, but I'm too busy to sit down and do it.

Are you too busy doing things that you're not passionate about? I have to clean up the house and do the dishes. I have to cut the grass and rake the leaves.

Of course, we all have things that need to be taken care of. The question is why and when did you decide to make "busy" a priority over passion and creativity?

Maybe it's time to hire a housecleaner and get out the old paintbrush!
