the rubber band theory

 

 

7.19.11I was giving one of my daughters a giddie-up speech this morning.

She gets this twisted, biting the inside of her cheek look on her face, and then I know she’s feeling overwhelmed. I reassured her, reminding her about the huge rubber-band ball we used to keep around the house.
I told her: “Rather than to try to deal with the entire wad of rubber bands at once, and of course it would be impossible to get to the one in the middle, just peel off three rubber bands today. Prioritize three things that you think are manageable on your list, and when each one is accomplished, you can flick it in the air, up to the sky and sing!
