Time



When I say the word,  time, what do you think of? Perhaps, ‘it goes fast’, ‘not enough of it’ or ‘a gift’ comes to mind. Today I was involved in a wonderful discussion about this simple word that runs our lives. 
I have been thinking about  my time a lot lately. Some days I feel that I won’t be able to finish everything I need to do. School, family, work and church take up a lot of this precious gift in life. This morning I was looking through some pictures of myself as a happy, satisfied kid and I’ve realized something very important. I have decided that in life, we all have goals. I understand that every person’s goals are different, which is a blessing because we need to have different people doing different things. However, every choice we make in using our time will eventually point us on a path that leads somewhere. 
If we are not choosing actions that lead towards our goals then we are wasting our minutes. I am not very good at prioritizing my choice in activities sometimes. When I think of a project that seems ‘funnier’ than other projects or assignments I have to do, I have a hard time finishing the essentials. I think the act of realizing my faults are helping me become better at doing the important things first. I hope I’m getting better at prioritizing! I am open to advice on prioritizing tricks…
