It's fulfilling to accomplish all the errands you have to do for the day. There may be some unexpected things that may arise, but the things that you've set to be done for the day must still be met.
Today, I paid bills, went to our lawyer, met some friends, attended mass, cleaned the house and cooked food for me and my brother. Allotting specific time for each activity will make you realize that doing one thing at a time is very easy and systematic. Making a daily planner and giving a specific timeframe for every activity is very helpful. You will no longer be going back and forth on any unfinished business.
All of us have twenty four hours a day. Some may complain that they don't get enough time to do their works while others who do same things as they do have still that extra time and reserved energy for pleasure. Take for example, two persons similarly situated ( in the sense that they have their own families and same nature of work), the one who finds time to have family dinner on saturdays, outings on sundays and bonding moment with wife and kids in front of their favorite tv shows every other night; and the other one who'll come home from work, continuing the unfinished business he'd supposed to do in the office - unable to join family dinner nor talk to kids on school matters nor to his wife on how's her day.
Time is of the essence. Every moment spent in a useful way has its corresponding compensation. Compensation may not always be in the form of money for it will help you balance your life - socially, emotionally, spiritually and intellectually.
