I apologize for being so slow to get back to my comments.<br /><br />Cheryl- I think that multitasking is something different than chasing the rabbits. At least successful multitasking gets multiple things accomplished in a more efficient fashion.<br /><br />Jayne- That feeling is when the above-mentioned multitasking goes awry. I think we all get that at some times during our increasinly busy lives. Not that being busy is always a bad thing. :)<br /><br />Meleah- Finding that balance isn't always easy, especially if you feel guilty for doing one thing, thinking that you should be doing the other.<br /><br />Babs- I understand that, and find my own focus strained at times. On the other hand, sometimes I get so focused on one thing that others slide. It is all about balance.<br /><br />Katherine- I find it enough a challenge (although a fun one) to keep up with this blog!<br /><br />Alexandra- I had heard his quotes for years, and I think I knew he was Chinese, but it was helpful to delve a little deeper into who he was. This didn't begin to make a dent into all that he was and did. I think we have all chased rabbits at some point.<br /><br />Hilary- The Golden Rule and concentrating on what is most important are both good rules for life.Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09349143005152545854noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2805562596725665277.post-88234674395875506002012-09-29T08:49:13.755-04:002012-09-29T08:49:13.755-04:00Hi Linda ... the Golden Rule is distinctly golden ...Hi Linda ... the Golden Rule is distinctly golden isn't it ... <br /><br />Scuttling rabbits ...

But I never knew that he was Chinese, or the ofther facts you shared here.<br /><br />And the rabbit story, very intresting. I, unfortunately, can sometimes become a bit unfocused and doubt myself if I am focusing on the right thing. And it is at those moments I can steer away from a project I am working on, thinking that maybe I should start another - because maybe that one will turn out better. Only to then return to the first project after a while, realizing that I probably was focusing on the right thing from the beginning. So, kind of like the chasing two rabbits... Hehe.<br /><br />Anyway, really nice post. :-)<br /><br />Have a great weekend!ropcornhttp://ropcorn.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2805562596725665277.post-79637744559420215212012-09-25T21:05:24.274-04:002012-09-25T21:05:24.274-04:00That is what has happened to my sites.

"<br /><br />Yanno, I've been trying SO HARD to balance blogging and writing my novel. And it's been very difficult to maintain BOTH at all times. That's why I haven't been getting much work done for either. <br /><br />However, I believe I have finally come up with a system, a schedule, and a routine. And HOPEFULLY things will work out better! meleah rebeccahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08116656129112106780noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2805562596725665277.post-68953619709793798322012-09-24T12:01:25.488-04:002012-09-24T12:01:25.488-04:00Often, my focus feels like a pinball that's ju...Often, my focus feels like a pinball that's just been shot and is just bouncing around hoping for the best. I'm constanting telling myself to "Focus." Whenever I manage to focus my energy on one thing with intent, miracles happen.
