Feeling
overwhelmed right now.
Chipping
away at the problem.
Clearing
the slate.
Walking
the walk …
or just talking the talk?
Trying
to do too much.
Going
beyond the call of duty.
Seeking
a conclusion.
The
rest of the way is smooth sailing.
A positive attitude can be a big help
when you have problems. Even if it doesn’t
actually solve the problem, just thinking that you will solve the problem,
makes the problem easier to bear.

To right! Far too many times have I encountered situations where I just felt to overloaded, but then I take a step back, clear my head, think of a happy tune and everything just seems to fall into place and before I know it the job is done. Sometimes a job can look like too much when it really isn't. Having the right attitude can make the time go by faster and you will feel very accomplished when you are through.
ReplyDeleteToo right. Alright! Horos means dance in Greek, bt I chose the title because the poem came from the HOROScopes column of the newspaper.
