TIME and time again!!
What is Time?
When we ask this question, the kinds of answers we
get are, "Time is something we measure by a calendar or clock," or
"Time is a measurement of activity. "Webster's Third New
International Dictionary defines time as "a period during which something
exists or continues. "None of these definitions, however, really explain
what time is to us.
Time is nothing but an emotion or feeling: It's a
way of looking at a moment, or at life, that produces an emotional state within
us.
Think about it. How do you know how long something
really takes other than by how it feels? If you are doing something that
doesn't fulfil you, then a minute can seem like an eternity, can't it?
Similarly, when you love what you're doing and you
are totally engrossed in it, time can fly by. It literally ceases to exist. The
bottom line is that time is completely driven by emotion.
There is a big difference in how you experience it
if you are walking around stressed vs. if you are spending the moments of your
life doing things that really matter to you. So, while there is no more
physical time for any of us, there is a lot more time for what really matters to
you.
Every one of
us has 24 hours a day. No more, no less. That is the only resource that we are
all on equal terms with.
Time is our
precious commodity.
Time never
stops.
Time cannot
be returned.
Time cannot
be turned back.
Time is
going, going and going on and on and on.
There never
was, never ever is and never is going to be the exact same day, the exact same
moment!
Make the most of it and savour it!
Someone may
say that time is playing against us. Well… unless you know what the rules of
the game are!!!
How are you
managing your time?
Are you effective
with your time??
Are you
using your time to your best advantage?
Do you
appreciate the real value of it?
It is so
easy to get caught up doing something that takes us nowhere!
Keep the following in mind:
Time
targets:
- Dimension of distraction (not urgent, not important) - hanging out, TV
- Dimension of delusion
(urgent, not important) - emails, phone
- Dimension of demand
(urgent & important) - not too much time there!
- Dimension of Fulfillment / THE ZONE (important, not urgent) - health - 50%
