It’s OK To Miss Things

by Randy Murray on May 19, 2011

Did you see that program last night? Have you been following X’s tweets? Do you believe what Y wrote on Facebook?

No, you did not. You cannot possibly watch, read, listen to, or participate in everything.  You just can’t. So quit beating yourself up about it or trying to do it all.

I’m not recommending that you become an ascetic or a recluse.  Simply choose what you’ll do and do it.

For me, today, I’ll do just that.  I’ve got work to do, so it’s time to disconnect from Twitter. I rarely check Facebook, and the TV and the music will be off.

And you know what? I’m not at all deprived. In fact, it is blessed solitude, silence, and space to work.

So let it slide. Limit your intake. Take a deep breath and enjoy the space you’ve created. I have read the entire internet and don’t worry, you’re not missing much.

 

But did you hear the word about Edward?
