I'm trying to do too much and not doing most of it well.
For example, i forgot to make a phone call today. Not only forgot to make it, but forgot i was supposed to make it. Make that two important phone calls.
I need to learn to start saying no and not picking up things simply because they are enjoyable. When doing too much, nothing is enjoyable anymore and i become undependable. I don't want to be that person.
Here's to change. In August.

Saying no is so hard sometimes, I lift my glass to that last line... and now I'm thirsty =)
