I'm barely keeping my head above water at work at the moment. I have so many meetings I'm struggling to find the time to sit in front of my computer and plough through my to-do list. Sadly, there isn't an imediate end in sight as the next couple of days I'm at a leadership training conference at Holy Trinity Brompton in London. Oh well... maybe I'll find time to get ahead of the curve at the weekend!
The problem with my time management is that everything I'm doing is so interesting. It would be easier to prioritise if there were dull or less important tasks - but when my time is filled with chatting with amazing people all over the world, training new members of staff (Dana and Theresa are lovely!), creating a prayer podcast for lent, organising a meeting of some of my favourite 24-7 peeps next month, checking the manuscript for a new edition of 24-7 book and much more... there's not a lot I'd immediately bump off the list. Oh well - I'd rather be too busy and love what I do than have time and be thoroughly bored... Having said that, God's been talking to me about Sabbath a lot... but I won't get into that now... it'll take too long and this post is about something else.
Anyway - back on track - I'm typing this at 10pm at night because I've just finished uploading two articles to the 24-7 website: "Guatemalan Youth Pray Peace in Violent City" and "Prayer Journey Through South Korean 24-7 House". Two excellent stories I've heard in the last month. Ah - I love getting to chat to amazing people all over the world :)
