If you are thinking that your lifestyle needs simplifying, try asking yourself these questions:
- Have you ever missed an important event in your child's life because of a conflicting obligation for which you volunteered?
- Do you feel that reading or relaxing is a waste of time?
- Does your family have trouble finding time to spend together?
- Are the storage spaces in your home overflowing because you don't have time to clean out what has been outgrown, broken, or used up?
- Do you spend more of your day feeling tired?
- Are you afraid to say "no" to an opportunity, fearing it will never come again?
- Do you give your children material items to make up for denying them your time and energy?
- Do you often find you have overscheduled yourself, underestimating the time needed for each event?
