I've been deeply entrenched in a same-crap-different-day cycle. It's irritating and its made me cranky. So, today I recalled the best advice I've been given to date: "Never do a job so well, it goes unnoticed." I heard this statement as a young mom, and I've held it in my subconscious ever since.
Maybe I'm doing my jobs too well. Maybe I'm barely doing the ones that matter. Or, maybe I'm ignoring the right jobs and focusing on all the wrong ones. I haven't figured all that out yet.
But, I've decided that these 2 statements connect somehow. One affects the other. How about, "Different day, let the crap go unnoticed"? Or, what about, "Same day, do A (singular) job well"? They both sound mighty fine.
So, what's the best advice you've ever gotten? Tell me, I wanna hear. I just might adopt it for my own.

Don't sweat the SMALL stuff!
I LOVE your blog!
I have always liked, "never let the problem to be solved become more important than the person to be loved." It is quoted a lot in the ensign. That is not saying I always follow it, but it is a good reminder.
We also use the saying "same crap different toilet." Everyone has there own problems.
I got nothin but I could really use some advice.
