Even The Little Things Count

I knew that today was going to be rough. I was scheduled for a 10 hour shift, I needed to run my sister to the County Health Services building so she can try to get assistance. I woke up with a stomach ache which was not helped by my Long John Silver's lunch. I needed to pick my boyfriend up from work when he got off. Overall, an action packed day.

Naturally, it had me stressed out. How on Earth was I going to balance everything I needed to do today and also have time for the things I want to do?

The answer was simple. Today, I don't need to make any major life changes. I don't need to do something completely immeasurable to better myself. Today, I'm going to be ok with a small change. Because drops of water when added together form the world's largest oceans. Because puzzles are made up of tiny pieces. Because one thing leads to another, and to another, and to another.

So my small goals for tonight are simple. Get my taxes done. Make a delicious and nutritious dinner. Shouldn't be too hard, and yet it still counts as getting things accomplished.

Do you think doing one or two things in a hectic day should count? Or should I try to get some of my more major to-dos done?
