Every once in a while, I come across a real gem in my Substack email. Today was one of those days, so I am sharing with you. Click on this link, and go to “Pause, Pray, Proceed and Two More.”
I actually thought her original idea of three P’s was brilliant, but the last two she added are absolutely necessary before proceeding! Check it out and let me know what you think.
I am one who tends to jump in, find out I am in the frying pan and then try to jump out before it gets too hot for me there. You know, the whole leap before looking dilemma. Lately, since I have a broken foot, I am moving much more slowly with my body and making deliberate choices with my mind. After all, if I have to get up and move around, causing great pain to several other parts of my body besides my foot, I make sure that I am doing all that I need to do during that trip. That being said, I proceed to do most things with great caution these days and I am finding out that perhaps that is the way I should approach all choices.
I understand, Vickie! Having a limitation usually increases my efficiency substantially. 😉 Reminds me of the saying: “You know you’re getting old when you bend over to pick up something, and you look around for anything else you can get while you’re down there.

I chuckled when I read your reply because I do the same thing, even before I was injured.
