When you are working on a bunch of projects that all have different deadlines, it is easy to get stressed or caught up in all that is going on. It feels like you are juggling 10 different things and you do not want to drop any of them.
When you look at your future calendar it can be overwhelming so break it down into months, weeks and days.
What is the most important thing you need to accomplish today?
If you are reading this then you still have your most valuable resource. The most valuable resource you have is time. As soon as you think you are out of time you become poor. I’ve heard many people will trade all the wealth they have for more time.
Knowing the value of time and how to value your time will bring more awareness on how you spend your time. When you think of time as a resource that is running out then you will want to spend it as wisely as you can.
Spend your time on experiences.
Spend your time on family.
Spend your time on serving others.
Spend your time on yourself.
Spend your time on doing things that make you happy, healthy, wealthy and love.
If you are anything like me you feel like there are not enough hours in the day. There are twice the amount of things to do than you have time for. I’m always asking myself, “When am I going to do this?”
Here are the things I tell myself.
I must be on my “A” Game!
I must bring the energy and joy!
I must do my part!
I must be ahead of the game and not fall behind!
I must move quickly, not hesitate, make the best decisions I can and be confident in the decisions I am making!
I must use my time effectively and provide the most value I can in the time I have!
Without a sense of urgency then I will waste time. If I have a back up plan, if I get comfortable, if I am timid, if I get complacent, if I am fearful then I will waste time and not perform the best I can.
I must be totally focused and committed to getting the outcome I want. I must fully believe in myself. I must see the potential and take enormous action. I only have one short life and I must not waste any time. Now is the only time. I am fully present.
The amount of time it takes for different people to accomplish the same thing is widely different. The time it takes Elon Musk to make a million dollars is tiny compared the amount of time it takes me to make a million dollars.
When you are younger a year of your life is a bigger percentage of your total life. When you grow older a year becomes a much shorter period of time. Although the amount time is the same it can feel shorter or longer.
Take your time and use it wisely.
In this world speed is what everyone wants. No one likes to waste time. Time is our most valuable resource and it must be prioritized and addressed.
Look back at everything that has gone wrong in your life. Most things seemed like a big wound then but now has healed. If something has upset you and you think about 5 years in the future will it still be upsetting you you. If not then get over it now. There is no point of holding on to pain when it does not serve you.
Imaging looking back at your life and you got everything you have ever wanted. What would be different about your life now? Would you be the same person you are today? Would your life be better or worse?
Not getting what you want can be just good of a blessing than getting everything you’ve ever wanted. Sometimes more lessons can be learned during hard times than easy ones. Without these hard times then you would be a different person. With the passing of time we gain a new perspective on these times and can be grateful for them.
Look at what influences you. Most people are influenced by pain and pleasure. People want to move out of pain and into pleasure. Then you can add in the concept of time. Are you moving towards short term pleasure and long term pain or are you moving into short term pain and long term pleasure. Very often you must grow through short term growing pains to get to long term pleasure. When seeing what influences know where it will lead you in the long term. Do not sacrifice your long term happiness or have regrets in your life.
It’s time to focus! It’s time to know. It’s time to commit. It’s time to lose fear and inaction. It’s time to be a lion. It’s time to hunt down my goals and attack them because my life depends on it. It’s time to stop complainin and see how great my life really is. It’s time to count my blessings. It’s time to share my blessings with others. It’s time to network and build a team. It’s time to accept full responsibility. It’s time to stop blaming and start forgiving myself and everyone else around me. It’s time to love more than I have ever loved. It’s time to move into pleasure and leave pain behind. It’s time to go with the flow of the universe. It’s time to plan my journey. It’s time to take calculated risks that will propel me to new heights. It’s time to take massive action. It’s time to transcend. It’s time to take the time to make it right.
A flood starts with a few drops of rain.
A marathon begins with a single step.
A house starts with a solid foundation and is built brick by brick.
Anything worth doing takes time. Progress is made slowly over time. Take the time to do it right and you can build something that will last forever.
