Alice Benton's Blog: You're The Designer!

By now, we all know that we can get sidetracked by whatever’s going on during the day. Many things go undone this way. Maybe a friend came over, even though you told them you had something to do. Perhaps, that visit you should said no to will not allow you to scroll through the classifieds. So some people will never start typing that story they always wanted to write. Others won’t stumble upon that great new company that they do indeed match perfectly. The unknown loss is different for everyone.

I’m not saying don’t have fun. It has been my experience that balance is often the key to success. Leaning too much to the left or right tends to make a mess of everything. Honestly, it is just as important to play as it is to be hard-working.

Do your best to know what you want. Lay out your needs and do what is better for your life. Also, never let someone else’s agenda change your plans. You are the designer of your life! The only one allowed to through off the designer is the architect.
