So, what are your Top 5 Tips? Have cooking tips? Gardening? Software Development? Write 5 tips that you think would be useful to at least one other blogger in the blogsphere. Surely there’s someone out there who needs this help.

5 Ways to Survive a Relentlessly Busy Day
  1. Make a list of what MUST get done. Keep it short. Eliminate stuff that can wait. And then do those must-do things as fast as you can so they aren't hanging over your head.
  2. Stop for a full minute (or longer) outside. Find something in nature to examine closely: look at the sky, listen to a bird singing....
  3. Think about how much worse it would be to be bored: imagine standing in line at the grocery store for 20 minutes, or sitting in an airport for 24 hours. Delight in the excitement of your life.
  4. If you have the opportunity to be near a small child or baby, focus on trying to make her (or him) laugh, or at least smile. Lose yourself in the sound of a giggle.
  5. Try the same thing as #4 on an adult. If it really is a horrendous day, you're allowed to pick an 'easy' person, someone you know laughs and smiles with little prodding.
