Let's talk about managing our time and energy better! 👌 | Weekend-Engagement 167 [ENG]
Welcome 🙋🏻♀️!
Hello dear friends! I hope you are very well and having an excellent weekend, for my part, I find myself progressing in health, which makes me happy because I spent many days down, returning to the theme of this post once again I join the weekend engagement proposed by @galenkp who always makes sure to bring out very interesting topics, this time I decided to choose:
📍 What does this quote mean to you and how can you apply it's true meaning to your life with positive results?
➡️ "If it's your job to eat a frog, it's best to do it first thing in the morning. And If it's your job to eat two frogs, it's best to eat the biggest one first." - Mark Twain
All the topics are interesting, if you have not yet joined this contest I invite you to do so!
When reading this quote is inevitable for me to think about something that my mother taught me and that even (being already an adult and independent woman) I still apply it, my mother is a woman who has always managed very well every aspect of her life, she taught me that this quote is a very effective method to manage our time and energy, which is true, I will explain a little why I say it from my own experience ...
"If your job is to eat a frog, it is better to do it first thing in the morning", this for me means that I can be a more productive person in the morning when the day is just beginning and I have the energy to the fullest, it is where I know for sure that I will do my job excellently 👌
"And if your job is to eat two frogs, you better eat the bigger one first", this for me means that we must have excellent time management, that is, if I have several jobs to do it is better to start with the heaviest or most difficult, so then I can do the others effectively, what would be of my results if I first spend my energy on things that I know I can do quickly and leave last what requires more of my efforts or energy, but I spent it all already... 🫠
That's why it is always good to plan day by day, although it may seem tedious to many, it is the best, you optimize your time, energy and end up being a more productive person, who takes care of himself and has plenty of time to do fun and relaxing activities, so this is what this quote means to me and what it brings positively to my day to day.

I'm a girl in love with adventures, I love to know new places and document my experience in them, I'm passionate about photographing unique moments, cooking, positivism, dancing, fitness life and above all protecting stray kittens, they are angels that deserve a lot of love 😸.
I invite you to live all these experiences with me and learn to be better every day!
Es así amiga, muchas veces nos distraernos con lo más sencillo, dejando lo fuerte para después y luego no hacemos ni lo uno ni lo otro.
Muy bue razonamiento lo de las ranas, jejeje.
totally agree with you friend. It is better to have our work planned and in general, keep an order, this gives us better results.
It's really true, mornings are super productive and it's better to take advantage of this energy to undertake the heaviest activities.
I never understood how my college classmates would stay up until the wee hours of the morning studying, because I always preferred to go to bed earlier and get up a couple of hours earlier to review or do some homework. It worked for me then and still does.
I agree, you will get better result by planning and by planning sometimes to get to realize that there are something that you are not done or missing in your plan.
An excellent way of life that your mom taught you, my friend.
Very wise of her.
Totally agree with your way of interpreting that phrase my Ely, we will always be more productive doing the difficult work first and doing everything on time, that undoubtedly allows us to work better.
