Have you ever had one of those weeks where everything went exactly as planned? Well, neither have I, except for last week. I do not know what was going on last week, all I know is everything went according to plan. My plan, that is. I was on a roll.

While, it is very gratifying to get your work for the week done ahead 
of schedule, it creates an opportunity for the intrusion of that 
infamous “honey-do-list.” This list has no end to it. 

When you accomplish one item on the “honey-do-list,” three other items
appear automatically. It is virtually impossible to finish everything 
on that list. It is part of the wife's secret society no man can 
penetrate. 

Being on such a good roll in any given week is not the grand thing I
thought it was. I am now content to have my desk piled high with 
unfinished work at the end of each week. 

Since I had a little bit of time on my hands, I read what good old King
Solomon, the wisest man that ever lived, thought along these lines. 
“Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with thy might; for there is 
no work, nor device, nor knowledge, nor wisdom, in the grave, whither 
thou goest” (Ecclesiastes 9:10). 

If I do not use my time to the best of my ability, the probabilities are
pretty high somebody will intrude and use that time for some other use.
