An Urgent Message on Urgency

We have discussed in our previous post why most of us are unwilling to change. We have stated the first reason as being we are AFRAID. The second reason why we are unwilling to change is that we lack a SENSE OF URGENCY. Sometimes we have learned to desensitize ourselves to the point that we no longer recognize the untoward signs which keep flashing in front of our eyes saying to us that things aren't really where we want them to be, and we aren't really where we want ourselves to be.

How we act or react towards areas in our lives which we find to be lacking in one aspect or another depends entirely on how we evaluate the situation and how we evaluate our place in it as well as how we resolve or propose to resolve them. If there were three words you can put in the same basket they would be URGENCY, NEED, and PRIORITIES.

Every aspect of your life requires a certain level of attention, some may require more than others but they all need your attention, nevertheless. You have to start recognizing the warning signs which can unhinge the balance you strive to achieve in your life. You can't possibly cover all with mastery but you can keep everything together. Understand that you are not the only player involved but also understand that everything stems from you. The reaction and results you get depends entirely on your actions.

Remember that there are no set rules in life. We have to change with a constantly changing world. Time is not always on our side. The key to make this whole journey a little easier and less hectic can be best described by the following points below:

1. Don't worry too much about things you have very little power or no power to control.
2. Don't sweat the details.
3. Take the time to actually make your actions count.
4. Never take anyone for granted.
5. Always mean what you say and say what you mean.
6. Never lie.
7. Admit your mistakes.
8. Take your time.

Well, simple they may seem but a lot of people have a hard time trying to make these work for them.

On our next posts we will be tackling the first part of our Feel-Better-Today program, and that will be Starting With You. I feel that in order to make a blog like this work we'd have to cover and discuss all aspects of our lives which complete us and , as always, we start with ourselves. So I'll be seeing you folks next time. Be good to yourselves and be good to one another ok.....
