Think of your life as an hourglass.
You know there are thousands of grains of sand in the top of the hourglass; and they all pass slowly and evenly through the narrow neck in the middle.
Nothing you or I could do would make more than one grain of sand pass through this narrow neck without impairing the hourglass.
You and I and everyone else are like this hourglass...if we do not take [tasks] one at a time and let them pass...slowly and evenly, then we are bound to break our own...structure.”
― Dale Carnegie, How to Stop Worrying and Start Living
=====
I like the quote as I am now rushing too many things and do not take tasks one a a time.
Do take tasks one at a time and let them pass...
Do not stress your structure by overloading too many things at one go.
