Busy Days Vs. Full Days

Busy is the new black.  Why is it suddenly cool to be busy?  

I read an article today that is a must read for any parent who thinks their life is too busy.  Listen, I am right there with you.  I wake up hours before the crack of dawn to co-host a morning radio show, I help manage programming on two radio stations, while raising two children, coaching a youth football team, working out at Crossfit Dartmouth, all while trying to be the husband my wife deserves.

It can be overwhelming at times.  But there's an exercise that call help you feel less busy and more blessed with life.

My knee jerk response when people ask me how my calendar is looking is to talk about how busy I am.  Instead, analyze your calendar.  For me, it's working on a morning show with 2 great friends, followed by trying to make the two biggest radio stations in my town the best they can be, followed by time with my kids, the gym, dinner with my family, books with my kids, and bed.  As the author in this incredible blog points out, I am not busy...I am leading a full and rewarding life.  It is all about how we view our "to do" list.

If you feel like you are busy...please read this blog.  Even I had to the time to do it.
