Staying Focused

The last few weeks have provided me with many, many challenges. The result of having so many challenges at once is losing my focus. It's as if I can no longer focus on more than one task at a time. I almost feel like a guy in that I find it hard to multi-task. In fact, I started this post twelve hours ago and am finally focused enough to finish the first paragraph. That's just sad.

A good friend of mine has suggested that I am spread too thin among the many aspects of my life. I'm not sure that is the case since I am in need of adding more into the mix. Yet, his explanation sounds all too plausible. Between all my music classes, church callings, and being a young single woman, I can find no other explanation that suits it all. However, I have to wonder what I would cut out of the mix, rather what I would give less attention and time to. My social life? Perhaps. School and music studies? Certainly not! Church callings and study? Highly unlikely.

Do you see my predicament? I can find nothing that I can give less attention to and still have things work out. Nothing short of ditching all my friends and being unsociable other than at ward events (which is where I see most of my friends anyway) would work. I am a social creature; I'll admit it. The worst thing anyone could do would be to place me in solitary confinement. I would seriously go mad- even more than now.

I hope and pray that I'll survive this focus problem and regain my focus again.
