Time is our life's potential!

    Well I have been blogging all week about Matt and Alex's wedding...and here it is Saturday again! I am ready to move back into the present and get back on task! I am ready to start new lists and new projects. My business, Chesapeake Bay Christmas Co awaits, as does my home ( projects always to be done here!), and my book project with my friend Adam! I have much to do and I always feel like I do not have enough time!
    Time is so slippery and elusive...it leaves us behind so easily without giving us second chances. It is up to us to grab it, manage it,  and pack it full of meaningful work( that produces meaningful results). It is up to us to fill it with new experiences and friends and family! Time is the vessel that we must fill or it will leave us the same as it came to us... as unused potential.  If it leaves us without us converting that potential energy to real spendable energy then shame on us! It is lost forever...no second chances!
    Make your plans ahead of time...start each day with a plan ( I love lists!), keep moving throughout the day...avoid diversions ... end each day with at least one thing done...finished accomplished! Preferably something you can see and gaze upon and feel great about getting it done! There may be many things that will not get done in a day..so keep giving them a part of each day...but always pick one thing that you can finish and put away and  admire its accomplishment at the end of the day!
   I love to finish small painting  or writing projects daily...I love to hold them and look at them and say I created that...or read them and say I wrote that...(doing that right now as a matter of fact). I love to leave behind pieces of myself through work. Do something for someone that needs help...that is one of the best uses of time's potential energy. It will be passed forward through the ones that you help...gaining exponentially...( we all saw the movie "Pay it Forward"...awesome use of time!). Just use your time...do not let is slip away!  Procrastination is one of my worst personal flaws so I fight this battle daily and I know many others who do too! (all who I  have passed my genes to!). Fight the battle!...fill your time well!...energize your life and your world and leave behind your potential...converted!
