Drowning. Swimming. Sitting out. I have yet to find that perfect balance, but I AM finding it easier to cut things out. My favorite blogs - the ones that feed my soul - remain at the top of my list to read daily. The others I follow once or twice a week. Some only once every 2 weeks. When I find nothing that seems relevant or interesting - I unsubscribe. <br /><br />I love writing - I enjoy reading - those two things help me deliberate about the content I find important to me. <br /><br />I have signed up for so many affiliate programs it's embarrassing, but I'm even weeding them down to a few that I really care about.<br /><br />It takes time - which I don't have to spare - but I'm learning. I get all wound up about the newest, latest "thing" and realize before too long that it's either absolutely necessary to me or its just another thing that wears me out. <br /><br />If I have to keep juggling to keep my family first, that's when I know it's a problem for me...

I have signed up for so many affiliate programs it's embarrassing, but I'm even weeding them down to a few that I really care about.

It takes time – which I don't have to spare – but I'm learning. I get all wound up about the newest, latest "thing" and realize before too long that it's either absolutely necessary to me or its just another thing that wears me out.

If I have to keep juggling to keep my family first, that's when I know it's a problem for me…
