Dolly Parton said, don't get so busy making a living you forget making a life. I think a lot of us can mirror ourselves in that statement— going to work, hustling, trying to make a living, but actually forgetting to make a life. It's like life has to be fitted in around work, when in reality it should be other way around, right? That we are essentially fitting in work to, to make a life. Just a brief reminder this morning to Think about your priorities. If they're not the way you want them to be, if you're busy making a living and not making a life, perhaps now is the time to think about making a change.
