Time

Time

To accomplish everything we hope to in life we can’t wait for the perfect time to take action. We have to start right where we are now.

There is nothing we can’t do when we put our mind to it and we’re willing to dedicate our time and energy to see it through.

Most significant and worthwhile goals take a lot of time, effort, and commitment in order to accomplish them.

Letting our self be distracted at the wrong time may cause us to stumble and fall. If so we must get up, refocus, and finish what we started.

The world is waiting. It is time to wake up and do the things today that we are each meant to do.

Our time is one of the most valuable resources we have. We must spend it wisely on the things we care about the most.

There is usually not enough time to do everything we want each day. We must identify what must get done and plan our time wisely.

When we don’t take the time to plan our day we run the risk of being overwhelmed by the sheer amount of what needs to be done.

Spending too much time stressing over the things we don’t have time for will keep us from focusing on accomplishing the things we can.

When we focus too much time and attention on identifying the things we can’t do we run the risk of overlooking the things we can.

Instead of complaining about not having enough time to do everything focus your efforts on using what time you have to do what matters most.

We all feel overwhelmed at times. Sometimes all you can do is prioritize and focus on the things that are the most important at the time.

Focusing our thoughts, time, and energy on the things we can do instead of the things we can’t is more productive and feels a lot better.

There are times in our lives we are faced with difficult situations that scare us. The sooner we face them the sooner we overcome them.

All things that are meant to be will. Some things just happen in their own time regardless of how hard we try to help them along.

Life is a long journey and along the way we learn, grow, and at times have to change in order to become the person we are meant to be.

The people we are and the lives we live are determined by the decisions we make at key times throughout our lives.

We will make the greatest impact in the areas that we give the most attention and time to.

A little bit of time and attention focused in the right area could make a big difference in our efforts to grow and improve.

Spend a little bit of time each day working on improving in an area of your choosing.

Take the time to do at least one thing today that will help you grow and develop in an area you want to improve in.

Take advantage of the slow and quiet times to prepare for when things are happening at a much faster and busier pace.

Habits are created by small actions taken repeatedly over a period of time.

The habits we create can hold us back or help us springboard towards the life we want to live depending on the ones we invest our time in.

When faced with a problem and doing what we normally do to resolve it is no longer working it’s time to try something different.

From time to time we have to make the choice to go in a different direction than we’re used to in order to explore new territory.

Giving too much time and thought to worrying about what others think will keep us from being ourselves and living the lives we are meant to.

The decision we must often make is whether we want to spend the majority of our time looking back or moving forward.

As each year comes to a close we should take time to acknowledge what we did last year and plan for what we hope to do next year.

To see the path we need to take sometimes we must slow down and take a closer look before continuing on our journey.

Taking the time to consider what may be ahead for us helps to make sure we appropriately plan and prepare for it.

It’s good to think before we act. We must be careful not to get lost in our thoughts and keep from acting in a timely fashion though.

There is a time to think and a time to act. We have the challenge of trying to figure out which time it is in the moment.

To gain clarity sometimes we have to intentionally step away from our busy daily routine long enough to clear our head.

Regularly taking the time to reflect on what matters most to us is very important for our well being.

Many of our best ideas are lost because when they first come to us we don’t take the time to capture them and they are eventually forgotten.

When you think of an idea that you feel is worth pursuing take the time to write it down so you have it to reflect on later.

Often when faced with a problem we either already know what needs to be done or we are capable of coming up with a solution. We just need to take the time to think it through and may also need to talk it through with someone else.

There are times we need the help and support of others to face the challenges in front of us and there are times we must face them alone.

To perform at our best we can’t go it alone. We need people we trust to support, guide, and hold us accountable at times.

Just like our relationships with others and the people we spend most of our time with has an influence on the person we are.

We can influence how good our day is by the thoughts we have, the activities we participate in, and the people we share our time with.

The secret to feeling young is spending a lot of quality time with our children and taking an interest in what they like to do.

Our children want our attention, need our time, and deserve to know we value and care about them.

Life is not only work, chores, and responsibilities. This weekend do something fun, try to relax, and spend time with friends and family.

Being extremely busy all the time can be physically, mentally, and emotionally exhausting. It is important to take time out to recharge.

We can only carry a heavy burden for so long before we become physically, mentally, and emotionally drained. We all need a break at times.

Adequate rest and time to recover are very important in order to perform at our best in all areas of our lives.

Sometimes in order to gain a little balance we have to take a time out and get a break from our normal daily routine.

When we don’t have to be anywhere or doing anything at any specific time we are free to just be and enjoy the moment.

Very pleasant surprises come at unexpected times in the most unlikely of places.

My favorite times to be outside are when the sun is rising in the morning and when it’s setting in the evening.

To gain and maintain good balance between our personal and professional lives we have to consider where we spend our time on a daily basis.

Life seems so much greater when we can effectively balance our time between our family, work, church, and hobbies.
