Things take time

Sorting out issues takes time. So does healing and moving on.

I tend to think that these processes are a bit like recovering from an injury. If you look for improvements minute by minute you won't see any gains, but if you look for improvement month to month you will see how much improvement occurs.

It takes time to get your head around changes in your life. It takes time to sort out what you need to do, when and how, and then of course, it takes time to implement these decisions and actions. Writing "To Do" lists can help to keep you on track, but make sure they have realistic time frames or you might feel like you are not completing anything.

Be prepared to revise what you had planned based on what is going on and remember to take into account any influences that you had not expected that might affect your desired outcomes.
