Oh please get organized!

Being a natural organiser myself, nothing frustrates me more than other peoples inability to plan, especially when it disrupts my schedule. There are various problems with this controlling tendency.

First, stressing about the problem is futile. There is good reason the bible tells us to caste our burdon on Jesus. Stressing won't change the outcome.

Second, when are over controlling we try to solve the problem ourselves, instead of making the responsible person take accountability. This disables their own learning process.

Lastley, controlling behavior typically shows little grace to the recipient of our frustration. Learning to be graceful during a crisis will require great personal constraint.

Now just in case you were wondering, this was another sermon to self. Hope someone else can benefit from it though :-)
