Ahoy there readers,
Today's column is pure pirate gold. An old Buttons family secret, that have steered generations of us seafaring puppets out of the doldrums. I hope you will all take it on-board so that it can do the same for you!
i just got home after being on the road for 2.5 months and feel overwhelmed by all the things that need doing. some things cost money, some things cost time, others resources, skills, and/or enthusiasm i lack. please help.
Dearest Overwhelmed
What a fun opportunity you have in front of you! You think you have too much on your plate, but what you actually have is the chance to play one of my favourite games. The game is called WIN-GO.
The materials you'll need a large piece of paper and some fun coloured marker pens. Make a grid of squares and on each write a task or duty that is currently grinding you down, then set to work! Every time you complete a job - mark it off. With every filled in straight line or diagonal you get a completely free, well deserved rush of satisfaction. When you complete the entire grid it's WIN-GO! The WIN is a feeling of exultation, better than the sex you are probably not having because of all the crappy charges that are put upon you, the GO is the release from this current mountain of mundane and....on to the next one!
WIN-GO is the World of Warcraft of real life. Just when you think you have attained the final level, unearthed the gold, rescued the troll prince (or whatever it is that those WOW folk get up to) you find there is another, even more challenging platform ahead of you.
Welcome to the world of real real world gaming OW. Never ending and always challenging. Isn't it Fun!
Love, love, love
Captain Buttons
