Sometimes we get too busy…it happens to the best of us. Basket too full. Schedule maxed out. Not enough hours in the day.

Time Management is helpful, but when you find yourself doing too much, it’s time to prune.

 

Dr. Henry Cloud gives an excellent analogy using a rose bush.

The solution?

 

Prune the good roses.

We do this so that the best can thrive.
