Hands Off My Planning Time
Remember those sleep overs in middle school?
The ones where we talked about cute boys, dumb little brothers and our stupid parents with all their rules?
It seemed like all the girls, but me, talked about how unfair parents are and how they’d do it differently when they grew up.
It's common that young children can’t see beyond their own situation.
However, I had the ability to take on different perspectives from the time I was young.
I was the one in the group who encouraged my friends to “see it the way your parents see it.”
So, how DID I gain this wise perspective?
While some kids went outside to play… I went outside to reflect.
Perspective is gained from the pause.
If you want wise perspective,
you need to create space for it.
As soon as I could hold a pencil, I was creating lists, individualized curricula for my stuffed animals and developing systems for feeding my pet fish and cleaning my room.
Give my young self a new pen and fresh paper, and I was in heaven.
And today, one of my favorite things to do is to plan my week and manage my calendar.
Taking time to plan is second nature to me.
A huge opportunity for growth and wisdom
is lost when we don’t look back to find
the lessons learned,
before diving into the planning process.
