It’s first thing in the morning and you’re firmly focused on the busy day and week ahead. Lots to do, some of it starting five minutes ago. Gotta be ready. Where’s the report? What’s in the report? Ok.
Breathe … and … off we go.
An hour later. On to the next thing, and the next, and the next.
It’s easy to broom-broom along in the busy-ness of the day, barely breaking or slowing for corners.
