Opportunities: I have a hard time letting go of opportunities—like a speaking event, or teaching a retreat, or even a getaway to see my children. I want to do it all! But I can’t, and that’s where I have to go back to my priorities and say, “No.” I need to write. I can’t go swing dancing tonight. (OK, maybe I can if I can just write faster!). Thankfully, I live in a place where we have slow internet, so that isn’t a huge distraction for me.
