Busy is bullshit. Everyone has stuff going on, obligations to meet, people to spend time with, events to go to, down time to discover. Using busy as an excuse to not be your best self is a cop out. My point is, don't spread yourself too thin. Be intentional. Plan ahead. Take care of yourself before you worry about others.

In this blog post, I am going to touch on a few ways I keep myself productive and accomplishing my goals.
