I love buffet meals because I can decide what and how much I want on my plate. I serve myself only a few items and go through them, a section at a time. Some I would not touch, and some I would eat a couple of times during the same meal.
People sometimes like to fill their plates to the brim. Nothing is wrong with that, but if they say, "My plate is too full," they are doing it wrong. The burden of food in front of them prevents them from enjoying the meal.
Life serves us a buffet of tasks every day. We must decide whether we want our plate full and feel the burden of it or focus on a few tasks. Not every item served needs to be on the plate right now. It's even ok to say no to a few. And do more of what you enjoy.
It’s only by saying NO that you can concentrate on the things that are really important.
After all, you get through the same amount regardless.
