We recently moved house, a nightmare with its own 7 levels of hell, which is then plagued even further by the standard phrase 'do we really need this? Why do we still have this?'
We found wedding presents still in their original wrapping. We were married in 2006....
We found puzzles we'd slaved over, glued together and then left untouched for over a decade.
If You Give a Mouse a Cookie is a children's book by Laura Numeroff. Quite simply, if you give a mouse a cookie, he's going to ask for a glass of milk. When you give him the milk, he'll probably ask you for a straw, and so on and so forth.
It's a slippery slope and one that we all go down now and then. The main trick to break this downward spiral is to stop, think and wonder 'why is this process the one we use?'
Think about it, is the way we do things the best way, the easiest way or just the way we've always done it?
