When to Rush
You have to be somewhere at 8:00 a.m. It’s a twenty minute drive — and you have to park…so you should leave the house by 7:30.
However. You don’t leave the house until almost 7:40. So here’s what you do. You RUSH.
Now, in order to get out of the house by 7:30, you should get up at 6:30.
Here’s my suggestion. Rush EARLY. Do your hustling between 6:30 and 7:00. Then, at 7:00, start to slow down a bit.
Leave the house in a LEISURELY way, at 7:30.
Get it? Do your rushing at the front end, not at the back end. Rush early. Not late.
Is the family in a rush on Sunday mornings, trying to make it to church on time?
Are you totally stressed at work, frantically rushing at the last minute – to meet a deadline?
Is getting everybody out the door to school and work a chaotic mess?
Why not rush WAY AHEAD of the deadline, the departure time…getting things in order, finishing early?
