To practice slow living, we have now arrived (in our household) by doing the following things.
- Learn to say “no” to things that you don’t enjoy doing.
- Never promise to do more than you can deliver.
- Learn to delegate tasks.
- Involve everyone in the household chores.
- Learn to block out time to spend with your immediate family.
- Schedule “me” time.
- Have at least one day to “catch up” on the chores.
- Designate one day a week as a play date day.
- Simplify choices.
- Learn to enjoy doing things at home.
- Turn off the cell phone.
- Only check the mail once a day.
- Unsubscribe from nonessential sites and magazines.
- Do all necessary tasks correctly the first time.
- Do not procrastinate when something needs to be done.
Remember that doing necessary things now means you have free time later.
