You may have noticed that I haven’t been posting as frequently; I have been feeling swamped with other commitments. It seems only fitting to get back at blogging by sharing with you the seven “traps” that Dr. Bruce Gordon of Campus Crusade for Christ, Canada identifies in this article.

Take a read and let us know which ones you can identify with.

For me definitely #7. I always think that the future will be less busy. I just need to get this next thing done and then I can coast for a while.

1. We need to be wanted and needed and thus must be available at all times.

2. We say yes to too many good things and lose focus on that which is best.

3. We over commit or allow others to over commit us.

4. Our technology runs us; we do not run our technology.

5. Being busy means that we must be accomplishing more than others; it’s an issue of insecurity.

6. Running fast is an escape; we do not have the time for issues which cause pain.

7. We live our lives in the future; once “this” is done, then I can slow down.
