Less is more!!

Being seamless is not all its cracked up to be!


We put such store in being able to multi-task to be able engage with multiple people and tasks. We rush head on into our days with our "to do" list in our hand. Now there is nothing inherently wrong with a well managed to "do list". I wonder how many of us have,a well managed "to do" list.

Is the waking time in our in our day somewhat over subscribed? Do we have more activity than time?

Feeling like you are always chasing your tail? Always running late. Ever wondered why appointment at the doctors office gets later and later hour by hour most days.

What we lack is margin, Margin is the edge around a page that is not have writing or pictures on it. It means that one thing doesn't run into another. There is little margin on the writing on this white page it is somewhat seamless. However there is a border with the colourful border. That is margin!!

Well that is all very well on a piece of writing but what is that to do with doctors or me.

 In the way we run our lives, we do not have enough gaps between our activities. Should anything not go to plan, then we begin to fall behind. Therefore we are always running to keep up or catch up. If we have planned to do less, allowing more time or margin between our activities. We would probably feel better, enjoy our lives more and ultimately perform our tasks better. In Fact Less is More
Create margin and win!!
