How to Eat an Elephant

Steve • March 16, 2010 • Comments (0)

Today has been a little chaotic. I had great plans for getting a lot accomplished today, and yet very little has come of my plans. It feels like I haven’t accomplished anything, and yet, I get a sense that this is the way the day is supposed to be. It doesn’t feel like an attack, it just isn’t going according to plan.

This feeling use to bother me more than it does now. Not that it doesn’t still impact me but I try to approach it differently. So, when things seem to hit their most chaotic point of the day, I stopped, I read my daily Bible reading, I prayed, and then I made the video below about how to eat an elephant. Hope it helps you if you are having a chaotic day.
