Introduction
Simple Habits, Powerful Results
You know the feeling: too busy to do what you know you ought to be doing. It’s so easy to get caught up in the busyness of the world. And when that happens, spiritually centering activities are squeezed out. You don’t find time for a rejuvenating walk in nature or the quiet time to read something inspirational.
It’s a fact of modern life that time is at a premium for most people. Sometimes we may find ourselves asking, “How long will it take?” before we ask, “And what will it cost?” Extraordinary stress is created when we feel like there’re just not enough hours in the day to do what needs to be done.
