Should you be doing more?

Should you be doing more?

We are constantly reminded daily by this little voice in our heads, that we should be doing more; to better ourselves and circumstances. Sometimes I feel like I am doing more than expected of me and sometimes I feel like I should be doing more. The truth is, we should be doing more. Everyday is an opportunity to better ourselves in that day itself. My mom once said to me, "Kishari, you place too much emphasis on a day." I didn't really give it much thought until I was overly obsessing about the amount of work and errands I needed to complete in a day. The problem was I thought I needed to complete everything in one day, or it wouldn't get done. I was trying to do more but the more I was doing, was costing me my peace of mind.

If you find that you should be doing more, than nine times out of ten you should. There is always room to grow in every area of your life; and at the same time you have to allow things to flow naturally. At times you are doing all that you can and other times, there is only so much you can do in any given situation. I have learned over the years, the key to doing more is staying within your control and allowing God to take care of the things out of your control. We will not always complete every task in a day and we will not know all the answers in life but we can do our best. I am hopeful for the future, that will allow for me to do a little more each day.
