Time, what a confounding thing you are, you are not linear; you have a different impact at different ‘times’. In happy times you fly, in sadness the seconds can seem like hours. Without you we can achieve nothing.
And yet, so many people think they do not have enough of ‘it’.
Let’s take people like Steve Jobs, Jeff Bezos, Richard Branson, they all have the same 24 hours in each and everyday as us and yes its true, that they now have a support group of people around them to help them squeeze the most out of every opportunity and everyday, but it wasn’t always like this for them. In the early days they had to make choices, and so, my friends, do you.
Would you rather…
- Watch TV for 3 hours every evening, or go out for an evening stroll and get to know your neighbourhood and some of the people in it?
- Eat whatever you want whenever you want, or restrict your reliance on high-calorie food for sustenance and have a body that carries ten fewer pounds?
- Play Candy Crush, or tick three things off your list to improve your side hustle?
- Buy a cup of coffee every day for ten years, or save well over £10,000 in the same timeframe?
- Look at Facebook, or talk to a real friend/person?
- Buy something, or volunteer to help someone?
- Be kind, or be selfish?
- Work to build someone’s multi-million-pound empire, or work to build your multi-million-pound empire?
I am not saying that a multi-million-pound empire is a good goal; helping as many others as you can is the better goal. Earning money doing that is the best combination
There is limited time in life, it is not infinite. Sleep well, eat well and move well, everything else is a choice.
I hope you are happy with where you are today, it is the result of all the decisions you have made up to this point. If not, change tack, there is time left, until there isn’t.
