I find that when I am stretched so thin I cannot focus. I bounce from one task to the next and complete nothing well. I also think we are much more forgiving of other people’s short comings than we are of our own. After all we are human as Kathleen said above, and we can learn from our errors.

It happens to the best of us! I, too, and preparing to leave for vacation and had planned to install some woven wood shades for a client this week before leaving. I realized just before they arrived that I had failed to add “lining” to the order. Therefore, they were not what my customer wanted and I had to send them back to be remade. Not only did this cost me time but it also ate into my profit. Of course, my client was very gracious about it – she, too, is leaving for vacation so she understood my mental lapse!

Great reminder…to relax before being stretched “too thin”, to be gracious and kind always-as you will want others to do the same for you and…that we are all human!
