[HA] "This is the time of your life.How are you spending it?"

Attention: This is not my original creation. This fragment has been selected from http://www.higherawareness.com/time-management-skills.shtml

-> Spend time with your soul

"Be mindful of how you approach time. Watching the clock is not the same as watching the sun rise."
-- Sophia Bedford-Pierce
What would your soul consider a waste of time?
To a soul, the only real time is right NOW. Not the future or the past. It lives in connecting deeply with the rich experience of each moment. Through awareness we can be in touch with our authentic self and how it perceives all of the energies and guidance around and within us.
"Chronos is clocks, deadlines, watches, calendars, agendas, planners, schedules, beepers. Chronos is time at her worst. Chronos keeps track. ...Chronos is the world's time. Kairos is transcendence, infinity, reverence, joy, passion, love, the Sacred. Kairos is intimacy with the Real. Kairos is time at her best. ...Kairos is Spirit's time. We exist in chronos. We long for kairos. That's our duality. Chronos requires speed so that it won't be wasted. Kairos requires space so that it might be savored. We do in chronos. In kairos we're allowed to be ... It takes only a moment to cross over from chronos into kairos, but it does take a moment. All that kairos asks is our willingness to stop running long enough to hear the music of the spheres."
-- Sarah Ban Breathnach
"He who postpones the hour of living rightly is like the rustic who waits for the river to run out before he crosses."
-- Horace
Build a new relationship with the time of your life. Experience time from different perspectives. Discover how to do life rather than allow life to do you.

"Time is life. It is irreversible and irreplaceable. To waste your time is to waste your life, but to master your time is to master your life and make the most of it." -- Alan Lakein

How much do you value your life?

  • Do you treasure each day?
  • Or do you allow each new day to come and go, a carbon copy of the one before, basically unnoticed, unappreciated and under-used?

"Until you value yourself, you will not value your time.
Until you value your time, you will not do anything with it."
-- M. Scott Peck

Many of us feel used by life. We feel victimized and resentful of all that we think we must do. We don't have to feel this way. If we really want, we can choose to shift our perspective. And shifting our perspective will help us do things differently.
