Busiest you have ever been in life

It could be easy to complain that I am so busy at work and in life but seeing how so many people are struggling and the economy still sucks in many parts of the US I will refrain.

However, for only one of the few times in my life I feel like I am chasing my tail and stressed out as to how busy both our company and I am trying to keep up with all the work. Paychecks are skyrocketing and many things in life are going great yet I feel lost as I can only tread water to keep up while working. Being a top sales person can do that to you.

I am an extremely organized and hard working individual and to feel so lost and out of control is not easy or comfortable for me.

So tell me, how do you handle being hit with a tidal wave of work that doesn't seem to have an end in sight and yet keep chipping away to reduce your to-do list to a manageable level? I thought after 30 years of this I was an old pro but I am not so sure anymore......

Multiple times a friend who lived across the street from my office asked if I ever went home because many times I was there until 2-3am and back by 6.

That year and a half stretch probably took years off of my life but has proven that hard work pays off. I now have a team of people's doing what I was doing with exponential growth each year.

It gets better if you prioritize and put your efforts into things that deserve it.

At the same time I began donating my professional time to locally beneficial projects and grants. Between 200-300 hrs of professional services donated. Not long ago there was a single opportunity for a payday in my field and they didn't give me a shot at it. It turns out I anticipate a lot less time wasted in the future. D

Focus your time and effort where it will benefit you and yours.
At least your wife will have lots of money after your stroke.

Graduate school was the busiest I ever was. With full class loads each semester, clinic hours all around the area and a full summer semester so we could graduate in 2 years.

I enjoy working much more than school, making money and coming home to a wife and no kids much more than those years. **** those of you who keep asking if we are having kids. WE DO WHAT WE WANT WHEN WE WANT!!!

I was nearly on suicide watch
Organic is tough, but its difficulty is overrated, IMO. I'm not looking forward to a ****ton of Biochem this fall and spring.

Organic was nothing compared to pchem and inorganic.

Better get used to biochem. It's basically the foundation for therapeutics And alot of your pharmacy stuff

**** therapeutics.

I had an undergrad semester consisting of microbial physiology and metabolism, virology, inorganic chem, calculus 3, cardiopulmonary phys and biology.

It was the dumbest thing I've ever done to get talked into all that shit.

I've been in business for 22 years. I no longer need to try to convince patients to get treatment done. I'm busier than I've ever been. I'm also chasing two kids around in my home life. Life is super hectic. I wouldn't change a thing though.
