How much is too much? How do you know when you’re taking on enough tasks to stop?
After trying to priorities my life, to a certain extent, I’ve come to realise that I might be trying to do more than I can handle. It started off with university and work, which was fine because it’s like having an 8-hour a day job, 4 days a week. I do also have the Charles and Colvard competition which ends on the last day of June - that’s going well as I’ve finally got the hamster wheel spinning. Now my dad wants me to use my - now extinct - Visual Basics knowledge from college (3/4 years ago) and create a program for his business. I’m not intentionally procrastinating but I’m either doing other work or I just want to relax. I’ll try and get it done ASAP though because he keeps asking about it.
Not long ago a fellow classmate asked if I could help him build a site for selling his biker jewellery. I told him I’d give it a go (knowing just how competent I am in that area).
On top of those I also have two sites to maintain but that’s not such a big issue.
Time to leave for uni. now.
P.s. No hamsters were hurt in the process of thinking.
Sorry…bad joke.

Haha that sounds a lot like me! I keep on saying yes to doing things for people…then stop and suddenly realise I’m drowning!
Annie: Maybe we need to learn to say no.
