Simple, Not Easy

I value simplicity, but sometimes when I talk about being simple or doing things in a simple way it is mistaken as taking the easy way. That isn’t what I mean at all. In fact, I think it is much harder to be simple than to be complicated. It is incredibly hard to remain simple. And it must be official because someone has named this paradox Meyer’s Law:

“It is a simple task to make things complex, but a complex task to make them simple.”

It is very difficult to take control of my schedule and only do a few things well instead of doing everything there is out there to do. This is true in my home, my job, and my church.

I must constantly be prioritizing and asking…
What should I do more of?
What should I do less of?
What do I need to start doing that I haven’t been doing?
What do I need to stop doing altogether?

What is on your “to don’t” list?
