I was recently at a meeting of my peers. Amazingly dedicated and talented people - people who do amazing things with few resources to back them up. People who believe in the mission of their work and will work extra to make sure they do everything they can fulfill that mission.
It's always energizing to be around people with whom you can share ideas, successes, failures, crazy thoughts and more. It's also a safe place to vent and complain :) Everyone needs an outlet. I found myself complaining about the multitude of things including the lack of time to do things!
One of my co-workers said that there is plenty of time. There is only what we choose to do with that time. I get to prioritize what is important. I get to choose what my time is spent on. It is not time - time is the same, every day. I need to remember that it is in my control. It was wonderful to have someone to clarify what I know, but sometimes forget. It stuck with me, hopefully I remember it when it's important!
I just came from another blog and her words of wisdom were "enjoy the little things in life for one day you'll look back and realize they were the big things". I think this has a lot to do with time and we really should prioritize what's important. I always look back on the days and wonder where all my time went. I really want to spend it enjoying the moment and really living.
ReplyDeleteSo similar to my words of wisdom that I chose for today's post- "What you do today is important, because you are exchanging a day of your life for it."
