Boy isn't that the truth. "But" is a serious hold back word. 🙂
Those 'buts' have a tendency to cause havoc. 🙂
I think I've finally used up all of my buts and I'm ready to focus on what lies ahead, even if it really overwhelms me to be re-thinking most of what I'm doing with my life when most others are feeling pretty settled.
I can totally relate to what you are saying. I am finished with buts and moving forward. Better late then never is what I say. 🙂
I was once told to replace"but" with "and". It changes your perspective and does help to move forward.
Good one, Cheryl! We do tend to make excuses, a d then they sure hold us back, don't they? I'm hoping that after my brother leaves tomorrow (He was here for the Thanksgiving weekend) I'll dig in my heels and get back to writing my book. No more excuses!
Sounds like that visit was a really good excuse for a break, though. 🙂
Interesting… I have to think about that one.
I'll have to keep this in mind Cheryl. "Buts" definitely just lead to excuses!
Agree. 'Buts' are not good…
Oh, there are plenty of those said in our house. Of course, they mean the two "t" variety BUT who's counting? Ha, ha. But seriously, it's a very good quote. But I could go on all day…
The buts are just another word for procrastination. We put off the tough things and do the easy things like read out email.
Guilty as charged. However, I am trying to change that.
so true, so true! Too bad I have a big butt.
JkJK!!
I very seriously doubt that. LOL
