The Spell of Father Time

When you ask people what their concept of time really is they will often tell you that most of them are always in need of more time. They are always short of time in completing something or doing something for themselves and others. Without delving too much on concepts of time management the truth of the matter is most of us do poorly in managing our own time. Human nature dictates that we often take things for granted only to rush in the end to meet a deadline of some sort. Well, you see time is a funny thing. At some point we have too much of it and become bored to death and at other times we don't have enough of it and we get stressed out and become anxiety ridden.

What is TIME to you? How do you see this notion about time? DO you see it in seconds, minutes, hours, or even years? When you relegate yourself in this frame of mind you become automated to see time in frames as well. A lot of us even see time as the limiting factor in our evolvement, in our growth and I am not talking about just simply personal growth but also in terms of profession and businesses. Well, let me tell you about two concepts; the concept of a MOMENT and that of NATURAL PROGRESSION. The only real time that matters to you is the present; the moment which you call NOW. The many areas which comprise your life happen around you dictated by how you deal with them at the present time. The way they evolve or naturally progress is, ultimately, under your control. So here is another key issue we associate with time-CONTROL. We want to control events in our life placing and categorizing them in our own little microcosm and deal with them in the time we allocate for them.

Well, as I have mentioned earlier, the only real time that matters to you is the Now and the time given to you for making the most of this moment is where you should concentrate your energies. Make the most of the moment and value them for what they are worth. At times of idleness direct your energies elsewhere to make the most of the time allotted to you. Don't see your day as a 24 hour journey through the daily grind which you call your life, but rather, see your day as 1440 minutes of moments.

Don't rush through anything in life. Every process must follow a law of natural progression. Like the tree in your backyard which you planted eons ago and is now a pain to trim, everything takes time to grow. That same process also pertains to you. Personal change does not happen overnight. You must work at it and you must work at it constantly. Liberating yourself from all that troubles you is not merely a decision you make and live with it thereafter. It's a way of life you must maintain to have some  real value and tangible results. 

So, take your time and the time to see things through, value your moments, and respect the spell of father time. Use it to your advantage. Make it count. Until our next post..take care, folks and do be good to yourself and to one another. That's one way to feel better today!
