Must Stop Procrastinating!!!

My conference today…

I have been preparing for this meeting for months… and what not. It was the same type of meeting I attending in Pennsylvania that I led out in. This time closer to meeting time things were up in the air and all over the place so it was hectic with other projects. I was driving to work and realized I completely forgot about one major part of the conference and I was just asking God for peace. I was trying to calm down. I came in rushing to look for someone who had been on vacation for all of last week and he’s my superior… I see him in the hallway and he’s talking about us starting the conference with the very thing I forgot. PANIC! My heart dropped! And I ran to my desk to print them out. Knowing that I was going through changing them and hoping that I could kinda tweek them before the meeting… that was in about 25 minutes… which in meeting time… was RIGHT NOW! So I went back to my desk… looked at my redlined products… opened the document and NOTHING had been changed… even the basic edits weren’t done… I tried to keep calm… I saw another document because I knew I started the edits before… and voila… when I opened it… all the changes were there… I had already finished it a long time ago. There were minor things that needed to be done and I did them.

Went to print it out… forgot to use staples… printed again… the printer is stuck… so I pick another printer… stuck… and then when they printed it printed wrong… so I went to another printer. Finally… finally! And people were running late anyway so I wasn’t holding up the show (praise GOD… I hate that feeling)

Meeting started… the guy next to me redlined it right off… EVERY page! I was trippin… I was sweatin on the inside… cool as a cucumber on the outside.

Things went well. So well I was just praising God in my mind. I couldn’t hold it in. Mercy.

All I could think about was mercy because I knew that I deserved for the meeting to go terribly. I deserved to have that meeting just fall apart. I was so afraid when I was heading to my desk before the meeting I literally just wanted to walk out the door. I’m so serious. But even in my fear I kept walking, I kept pressing.

God showed out. He really did.

Next part of the meeting I knew was going to be a bit more hectic because I knew changes needed to be made for sure and I hadn’t done them on the document in the computer. (Part of the reason this meeting was so “surprising” and “out of the blue” was because I figured we were covering different topics and we didn’t do Pre-meeting strategic planning and what not… so I just knew that I wasn’t running this meeting… not so) Lucky break we had a lunch break. I rushed to my desk and cleaned up my document. Took it in there… and it was like butter. No lie. Smh. God is so amazing. Mercy.

All in all I’m so grateful for my job. And mercy… and I really need to work on my procrastination. Lol.
