The Super Story Answer Is: Enjoy the Game

My son has a new favorite PBS show called “Super Why.” It’s a show that teaches letters and gets kids really excited about reading. He always wants me to watch it with him, and when I do I love the life lessons that they have at the end of each show. The other day the Super Story Answer was “Enjoy the Game.”

The reason I decided to write about this today is that this morning I found myself stressing over all the things I want to accomplish. Not only do I want to do it all, but I want to do it all well. That’s when I remembered the Super Story Answer, “Enjoy the Game.”

OK, so that’s the answer. But how should I do this? How do you slow down your competitive and ambitious desires? Hmmm. I’m thinking.

Here’s what I plan to do.

1. Prioritize. What are the tasks that are most important to me?

2. Remove Distractions. The tasks I need to do will all be written down so I won’t worry about all of them at once when I should be just focused on one at a time. I will close all websites that don’t relate to the task at hand.

3. Time Frames. I will assign time frames to each of my top priorities.

4. Work. I will work on my top priorities according to the planned time frames until my work time is up.

5. Acceptance. I will accept that I may only get 1 or 2 big things done in any given day. I might need to journal about this to help myself accept it. 🙂 I think I’ll also try letting it be vs. letting it go.

6. Play & Enjoy. I will stop work and move onto a leisure activity that I plan for ahead of time.
