WAIT

I seem to get ideas for my articles when I work-out.  So, today I was working out and I was thinking how easy it is for me to get lost in time when I'm in that environment.  I remember starting my cardio, of which I consistently do an hour and before I knew it, my hour was up.   Maybe it's because I have a habit of closing my eyes and meditating when I do cardio.  So, this idea of time was constantly on my mind as it relates to how fast it seems to pass.  The way I see it, time doesn't stop. The only time it stops would be at the point of death.  This is for every human being on the planet.  There are no exceptions.  So then why is it that most individual's wait for the time to be right in order to do whatever it is they want to do?   We have heard individuals say, I'll start my weight loss program when, the time is right.  I'll clean the house when the time is right.  I'll plan that trip I've been wanting to go on when the time is right.  I'll start that project when the time is right.  I'll have children when the time is right.  I'll start that business I've been wanting to start when the time is right.   I'll do this and that when the time is right, etc.  The flaw in that way of thinking is that the time will never be right until you get started.  You see, life will never wait for the time to be right.  Life will never stop for you.  In fact, it's the other way around.  Individuals are programmed to stop living.  So why wait for the time to be right?  You decide when the time is right, and I submit to you that the right time is now.  The only time we have is right now.  We can't borrow some time from tomorrow because it's not ours.  Tomorrow is not here yet and in fact, tomorrow may never come.  So, my point is that now is the time to get started.  
 Every single day, we choose how we invest our time.  Every single one of us has twenty-four hours a day.  I bet you that the common denominator on why most individuals don't live a full life is procrastination.  Procrastination and fear are killers.  I believe, a simple remedy to overcome procrastination and fear is a simple piece of paper and a pen.  Writing your schedule down for the following day on a simple piece of paper is crucial because, you have it in writing, and you can constantly look at it to determine if you're on schedule. I understand that sometimes you need to tweak your schedule and that's perfectly fine as we are not robots.  However, at least you have something during your busy day to look at to keep you honest.  Once you get good at that, you can schedule out your weeks or months; it will do wonders to your productivity.  Writing things down are procrastination's worst enemy.  Remember, you have already won just for being here.  You are here for a purpose.  Take advantage of life by living a full productive, abundant life.  Use your time, it was given to you for a reason. It is absolutely your time to use as you desire.   I leave you with a quote on point.  "Don't wait.  The time will never be just right."  Napolean Hill.
