I want to start out with… I want to wish you all a VERY HAPPY NEW YEAR, one that is full of every blessing that the Universe can show you, and for your dreams and happy moments happen (because they can)!
Today I wanted to reach out to you about The New Year and how you would look at your time in 2019
Seems that 2018 either went really fast for some or really slow there wasn’t much in-between for most.
I get both perspectives, 100%, but for me personally it did go both ways! I was dealing with the death of a loved one, so time just seemed to stop during my moments of loss and thoughts of our time together, yet I also found good times too, by allowing myself to connect with others and loved ones on many new levels which I am very thankful for and will never forget! Things seemed to slow down when I was creating my art because it was so intense, and I wanted to enjoy the moment forever, yet, time seemed to go by way to fast when I was enjoying my time with someone sharing true intentions and my full attention, so fast, in fact it was like a blink of an eye and it was over. I am better for all of these moments in time!
Reality is time bears all, time heals all and time tells all. Yup true statement! You always hear me say “try living in the now you will be much better off” but remember that statement is all encompassing and applies in life and in all things, because you are always giving things time. All in good time, all on its own time and just in the nick of time, in this moment of time etc.
So what else is time? What value does 24 hours have to you? Better yet, how do you value your time? What are you planning with your time in 2019? Think of it this way time is like money, time is a resource. But unlike money, we cannot earn time in any way. Time is given to us by the universe as series of seconds, minutes, hours, days, weeks, years etc. Best of all time, for all intensive purposes is free. But of course, there is a catch to time… we can’t “make” more time, we can’t win time or borrow time; once our time is spent, once that second has passed, it’s gone forever.
Think about this time thing please, just for a moment because – time impacts our mind, body and souls, every minute that passes in the now cannot be regained, yet the more minutes in time we spend on us in the way of growth, love and happiness is worth every minute… RIGHT!
So, I ask you during the first few days of this new year – 2019 What is your story – Have you been wasting your time? Are you ready to start using time to your advantage?
- How will you decide to spend your time this coming year for the betterment of your mind, body and soul.
- How will you spend your time for the betterment of who you are and will be?
- Will you take the time to “see” things in the now?
- Can you invest in your time for your happiness?
- Do you want to be your authentic self through time spent on you?
The journey of our lives is a story of what we do with our time, how we spend time learning, evolving, growing and bettering ourselves. How we use our time determines how our time will impact our life for the better (or worse). What you do or don’t do today in the NOW, matters in our tomorrow.
Listen here is reality – you cannot escape or run away from time, so you might as well use it for your advantage! Time is key to love, happiness, sorrow and growth! Think about that…. What do most people ask for on their death bed? A little more time to spend with loved ones, another chance to show someone how much they really do care, a little more time to wake up, look around and smell the roses, in the now, for that my friends is the key to a good fulfilled life!
OK, so, that last sentence most likely was pretty eye opening for most. Time (ha ha ha yep there’s that word/concept again) for you to take a moment for a deep breath through your nose and relax, you got this!
Get out a piece of paper and a pen( or a computer if that’s your thing) and ask yourself the following questions… you might want to set some time aside and really take the time to think about these questions:
- What am I planning with my time in 2019?
- What really matters to me?
- What do I want to accomplish?
- Who do I want to be?
- Who do I want to spend my time with (be authentically you with this one)?
- Where do I feel my time is best spent
After you answer the above questions with truth and honesty with yourself, with no one else’s judgement or ideas, you can start taking the time to implement your ideas and actions, changes or improvements, actions or inaction, all with true intentions and love for a better you! I wish you Peace love and Happiness in the seconds, minutes, hours, days and year to come filled with wonderful success!
Peace, Love and Happiness
