Do What You Must

“If you have to eat two frogs, eat the ugliest one first. This is another way of saying that if you have two important tasks before you, start with the biggest, hardest, and most important task first.” -Brian Tracy, book Eat That Frog!: 21 Great Ways to Stop Procrastinating and Get More Done in Less Time

Life is sad
Life is a bust
All ya can do is do what you must
You do what you must do and ya do it well
-Bob Dylan, song “Buckets Of Rain”

Apologies for yet another frog reference (Can you guess the film in the photo above?)…

After you make your list of things you must do, should do, and would like to do, start doing what you know you must do. It also checks the “should do” box and as you work on it, you might find you actually like doing it after all.
