The question is "For what reason or task do you need more time?"
There
are people who are interested in almost everything. They have so many
interests that they can't move in all the directions they'd like to.
What is possible for them? Just like everybody else, they can do just
one thing in each moment of their life, however, they could change
their direction from time to time or choose to concentrate on their
most important interests.
But
what about those people who have just a few interests, or who have
already made a choice for now? What if they still seem to not have
sufficient time in their lives? Again we have to ask what is possible.
For them as for anybody else it is possible to have a life full of
activities that they love. If they lead their lives according to what
they love doing, they enjoy their lives and will be able to look back
with contentment when they have to leave the earth.
So what about those people who still don't have enough time?
The
answer is very simple - they don't do what they love most of their
time. They don't do what counts. Instead, they waste their energy on
tasks that are not important to them.
How could they create more time and energy then?
Basically,
these people should rethink their priorities. Are they leading a life
that they love? Do they dedicate most of their time to what really
counts to them? Do they have time for the people they love? I know
personally how hard it is to make the shift and to create more time
with meaning in your life. However, if you don't do it, who else will
do it for you? If you suffer from the "not enough time disease," then rethink your values and priorities and organize your life according to them.
Nobody
survives forever on this earth. However, we can create our best
possible lives. It is easy to look back on a fulfilled life.
Nonetheless, it would break our heart to see that we have wasted the
precious time that we had.
ALWAYS KEEP THE END IN MIND.
There
are certain things that you can do if you want to extend your precious
lifetime, or if you would like to live your life more intensely:
·
Practice awareness and attention, because then one second can be very
long for you. Being able to recognize shorter time intervals will give
you power over your own time.
· Take care of your health, and you will increase your lifetime. Prevention is better than getting sick.
· How to deal with tasks you don't love doing: Hire someone, barter, or limit the time that you spend on it.
·
How to deal with little time stealers which suddenly show up: Deal with
them immediately, delegate time stealers to someone else, or make an
appointment with yourself to deal with them. Again limit the time that
you will spend on them. Don't let piles of undone work eat up your
energy. |
