I want complete control over every detail, right down to the finest minutia. But, what I didn't realize until just recently is that I was wasting all kinds of time and energy worrying about things that didn't make much of a difference whether they went right or wrong. Taking a step back to look at the "big picture" of my finances and environmental goals allowed me the space to see the few core activities that had the potential to really change my life.

When you take care of the important stuff, the unimportant takes care of itself."
