The following is a common saying in our household.
How do you eat an elephant?
One bite at a time.
Well today we modified this saying.
How do you eat an elephant made of chocolate?
One bite at a time – one bite every day.
Why the change?
First, chocolate seemed much more pleasant than thinking of eating a real elephant. Second, to make it through something as big as an elephant, one needs to be consistent in the task. Eating too much too fast can bring on all sorts of complications. Taking too large of breaks between bites could cause problems as well.
So when you have an elephant of a task to tackle, daily bites will get the job done. Plus it never hurts to eat some chocolate along the way.
