Full Speed Ahead


December is a time when my schedule is jammed packed. The list of things to do often seems endless. Planning meetings, Christmas preparation, kids’ concerts, kids’ recitals, and family gatherings are just a few of the things that are typically added to an already crunched schedule.  When that happens, I tend to start operating in task mode.  Let’s get these things done. I put my head down and get to work. The sooner I can get them done, the quicker I can release the stress that has accompanied the tasks.  It’s full speed ahead.  Full speed ahead is a great notion if you’re commanding a boat. It’s probably not such a wise mode of operation for any other endeavor.  And in reality, it didn’t do the Titanic much good either.
