Are you making the right choices?

This week’s parsha, Vayeshev, has a moment that hits close to home for many of my clients.

The brothers decide they’ve had enough of Yosef. They want him gone. Reuven’s horrified by the plan, but he’s not strong enough to stop them.

Instead of taking a stand, he looks for a workaround. He suggests they throw Yosef into a pit so he can circle back later and secretly save him.

His intentions are good.

His timing is the problem.

While he’s gone, the brothers sell Yosef.

Reuven comes back, looks into the pit, and realizes he missed the moment to act.

Later was too late and he loses his role as the oldest son because he couldn’t take responsibility when it counted.

Sound familiar?

You see something in our lives that’s not working.

You know it needs to change.

But instead of handling it now, you tell yourself: I’ll deal with it later.

Later becomes next week.

Next week becomes never.

The problem grows while you avoid it.

Clutter. Overwhelm. Health. Parenting. Finances. Time.

It’s the same dynamic every time.

Here’s the truth: How YOU spend YOUR time matters!!!

Putting things off doesn’t freeze the problem. It lets it expand.

Join the Journey To Organization and stop putting things off.
