There are tasks I know I need to complete, yet even a single task can sometimes feel overwhelming.
For example, I needed to talk with three different people—five minutes each—and it felt burdensome. In the end, I didn’t speak at all, and by the time I decided to, it was already too late. Although nothing catastrophic happened—no one got hurt or even mentioned it—I couldn’t shake the feeling that I could have done better.
I’ve come to realize that effective communication and timely action are essential. We often treat everyday exchanges as trivial, but even a slight delay can lead to confusion, setbacks, and more time spent later on. We accomplish incredible things and use a tremendous amount of energy just to keep everything moving smoothly.
This experience has taught me the vital importance of discipline. I must stay committed to my priority tasks—like reading the Bible and books that help me stay focused. By honing this discipline, I can ensure that I reach out and share information without delay, making my efforts more effective and fulfilling.
