What should I do today?

Confusion--this manifests as not setting clear priorities because the path ahead doesn't look clear and decisive.
Distraction--this manifests as a hundred small things that pull your attention this way and that.
Disorganization--this manifests as a lack of orderly thinking that leads to productive results.
Confusion is solved by getting your priorities straight.
Distraction is solved by getting better at focusing your attention.
Disorganization is solved by throwing out non-essentials and tending to the important things first and foremost.
...the unsettled mind comes about through one thing only--losing sight of who we really are. You can't be a puppet of outside demands and pressures unless you see yourself as secondary while the world "out there" is primary.
Deepak Chopra
