Time.
I've read books on time management, listened to audio books, asked peers for their input.
"How do you do as much as you do?"
I then get a Superman, "Master of the Time Management Universe" answer. Setting priorities and goals and not sleeping and intravenously pumping coffee into their system and other such "time savers."
And time still marches on.
Wake up, sleepyhead (is it morning already?). Get ready. Rush to work (why are there 2 stoplights on this particular highway, anyway?). Sell, Sell, Sell. Cold calls, gate keepers, proposals, new company-wide initiatives. Quotas and Gross profits and presentations and headaches. Sell, Sell, Sell. Fortune 500. Mom and Pop. Do more with less and do it yesterday. Rush home. Four of the best children ever born in the history of the planet just so happen to live at my house. Blink. It's now 11:37 pm, the 14th good night kiss has been given and there is so much I want to do, but tomorrow morning is menacingly whispering in my ear "Ready or not, here I come." (Thank God I don't have a TV or I would NEVER get anything done...when do people have time to watch, anyway?) Oh, yeah...shouldn't I have at least thought about writing a new song? Oh, I just did. Think about it, anyway.
Well at least I thought about it. Maybe tomorrow I'll get another book on time management. It would be great if I had the time to read it.
Has anyone written a real long song that doesn't take up too much time incorporating biblical time management principles? Something about how our days are few on the earth, so teach us to number our days and redeem the time for in an hour you think not Jesus will come and time will be no more.
Wow...no more time. Imagine that.
Now I'll go back to my corner for a time out.
