Time-Sucking Transitions

I am back to a business gig,
much to my relief,
not because of the money
or because my workload decreased
(it increased majorly)
but because I’m out of
that time-sucking transition period.

Transitions or changes
eat brain power.
Many of us worry during transitions
and that part of our mind
isn’t being used for more productive thinking.

Transitions also mess with ‘the plan.’
I live and die by my to-do lists.
I plan days, weeks, months.
Uncertainty means frequent revamping
of the to-do list.
I’m inefficient because
I’m getting the must-do’s done immediately,
rather than grouping them.

Change is part of life,
but try to limit the time-sucking transitions.
