Much Better

I'm sure it won't stay this way for long

I gotta clean...

...my office.

It's a mess!

You Deserve a Break Today!

This is undoubtedly the busiest time of year for just about everyone. At Harvest this is absolutely true.

I was talking with Julie about this fact this morning and she told me how overwhelmed she was feeling. I said

"You know what we should do?"

she said "lock myself in my office and ignore everything else?"

I said "no. We should all go out to lunch!"

Perfectly logical to me.

We were all feeling overwhelmed. So... I convinced everyone that we needed to go out to Chipotle for lunch.

It took some serious guilt tripping, but I accomplished a very difficult feat. Everyone who was here in the office went to Chipotle for lunch today.

We had fun. We laughed. We enjoyed the sunshine. It was good.

So, the moral of the story? Sometimes you gotta get out and take a break!

Live, Laugh, Eat some really big burritos.

Peace

Out of Office

It's strange, really. I find it increasingly difficult to focus and get things done while in the office. There are interruptions and habits that keep me busy, but not really productive. I've been keeping the office cleaner - in an effort to reduce distraction. But it hasn't really helped. I generally take one afternoon each week and head off-campus to a coffee shop to do some planning and prayer. I did this yesterday. I felt like I not only got done what I needed to, but I was able to spend some time in prayer and song to God. It was refreshing! What do you do/where do you go to be productive?
