Day 2 - 188 -- Shifting Priorities

Ever have one of those days when all priorities need to shift around? Meetings and writing time planned for today had to be shifted several times due to outside influences. It wasn't impossible to do, but seemed almost absurd by mid-afternoon when one meeting had been moved three times between 1 PM and 3 PM. At the same time, the couple of hours of writing time became compressed as the meeting was moved forward leaving inadequate time to really start something. The meeting went well even when shorter than planned. The writing came home with me tonight and moved forward. Each of these tasks has carry over into tomorrow as had been planned. Hopefully tomorrow will not be as disrupted as today so things are completed and submitted tomorrow as needed.

Tomorrow -- this day that is always a day away has been subject to much writing and thought. It provides us with hope or a second chance. It is an interesting concept and a lot of pressure to put on a 24-hour period. As I was thinking through the shifting today, I began thinking of tomorrow. There is no promise that it will be as we hope it to be or something else entirely. The moving work plan today wasn't unbearable, it just took some extra energy to rework the plan. The hope is that tomorrow will be different. That hope goes without saying as every day brings new insights, new opportunities and maybe new hurdles. So -- tomorrow will be different <smile>.

There was a lyric that came to mind this afternoon when my mind went to the 'be careful what you wish for' place. The whole thing made me smile then. Enjoy!

Look out, here comes tomorrow -- The Monkees
