Its a day at a time then it turns to weeks, months, Years and eventually it's a life time


 Hey, every day is an opportunity if you are up you have this opportunity at your disposal to do whatever you want with it. Now how you do it or what you do is your choice, for the most part, you have to maybe, go to work, do this and that, and so on and so forth.

Image titled Its a day at a time thing
The fact is every day is an opportunity, this opportunity has a limit though for one it has 24 hours in each. Each opportunity comes with that limit you can not take more or less that's it. One person puts it this way "it is not the number of hours, it's what you put in those hours."

Now surely I am not here to give you a miraculous formula for the 24-hour day opportunity we have, but I am here to tell you there is a way of dealing with this opportunity and that is it is not the number of hours you work per day, it is working doing what? it is not how busy you are, it is busy doing what? because let us face it you can be busy the whole day and still be doing nothing and you can be busy for an hour and be doing something.

So what is my point well succinctly put you have an opportunity every time you wake up. It does not matter where you slept the night before, how, or what time. At the rise of dawn here is a 24 deal with it. I guess on one hand am advocating for accountability and on the other, I am calling on the irresponsibility of expectation. In that, it is not the number that matters it is what in them that does.

President Abraham Lincoln once said 'if you give me 5 hours to chop down a tree I will use the first 4 hours sharpening the ax." Our lives are usually centered on time, how long will this take? how fast? how quick can we get rich? how fast can we make this business happen?

Rarely do we look at what expense this hurriedness comes with, surely being fast is smart but being thorough and effective is smarter if not better. Being able to achieve faster/quickly is good, but being able to achieve effectively and impactfully is great.

There is a saying I like but boy it is so cliche! but to be fair it does hold water as I conclude let me leave you with it perhaps you have heard it which I am certain you have but ponder on it for a few it holds a lot of contexts "Rome was not built in a day."

One thing is for sure if you are trying to achieve/build/create/ something that is going to last it will take time. Show me anyone who has built anything great easily and with almost less time and I will show you a liar. Having said that remember even those great things" had to start in other words they had to start somewhere with all the daily challenges we know all too well.

So perhaps what I would want to leave you with is do not be too hard on yourself that you are wasting time but be too hard on yourself that you make sure you are putting something in the hour or day. As I said before it is what you do, not how long you are doing it? In other words, it is what you are putting in the hour or day, not what hours/day you are putting in.

Dare

The greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing. The people who risk nothing, do nothing, have nothing, are nothing. They may avoid suffering and sorrow, but they cannot learn, feel, change, grow, love, and live. Chained by their attitudes they are slaves; they have forfeited their freedom. Only a person who risks is free. People, who risk may go through things that seem self-inflicting you know someone looking from the outside so to speak might ask what in the world is this guy thinking? why go through all that? why try you know how difficult it is? These are the people who don't risk anything thinking it's the best decision in the short term but in the long run, those who have risked are the ones who enjoy life, feel, change, find their path, grow, and live fulfilling lives. Just like a plant that is in a cocooned place will always look dull unlike a plant that faces all the elements, is usually more vibrant. Here is my point always try, risk, feel, love, and don't ...

How to know, you are doing the right thing for you

 Hey, have you ever thought that the reason you are struggling with certain things in your life is because of something else other than you? Maybe how you are brought up affected how you view relationships, how you were treated in certain situations has made you change the way you view things, maybe a breakup made you declare there is no love out there, and so forth. I am sure almost every one of us has. Surely what any of us has gone through affects how we view and define these "things" in our life. Talk of relationships, money, and life in general. I mean it is only natural, We are wired the way our brains are created to be for us, to protect us, and thus if anything happens against what is expected it is a cause of alarm. In other words, if for instance what you have done before failed, it's only natural that when you have a chance to do the same endeavor you become alerted and you end up hesitating to do it, or not doing it at all. These "things" that do hap...

The pandemic lessons and why they will always happen

 Hey, surely pandemics have always been with us right?, and as I should also say they are going to be with us. Let us face it there is another virus somewhere waiting to happen and I don't mean to scare anyone but to show what is actually reality. To be honest with ourselves the pandemics that do happen or will happen are usually 99% our faults caused by our negligence, carelessness, and so forth but also through good intentions like trying to experiment with a bunch of drugs to find a better one. Anyway, it should not be an excuse, as pandemics bring all the negative things that we all know yet funny enough through pandemics man has come out more capable and better with a drug to kill that virus and keep the virus in its place so to speak. But as much as pandemics come packed with all the negative stuff we should not forget all the good they come with. what do I mean you ask? pandemics come with their fair share of good talk the Covid 19 pandemic for instance I would say has come ...
