Making Friends With Time
As the famous poem asks,
‘What will you do with your one precious life?’
Big question. I never liked it.
When I was young, I was always aware of time. I was either waiting or late.
It’s hard to answer ‘What will you do with your one precious life?’.. if you have a mild anxiety about time.
What’s a good way to make friends with time?
Make friends with the present moment.
Know the present fully to learn from life’s experiences fully.
There’s no point planning your future if you don’t know your present.
Plan from a place of calm and knowing.
To answer the question ‘What will you do with your one wild and precious life?’
you might first ask ‘How can I be with this one wild and precious moment?’
I am working on a concept: ‘5 Seconds of Mindfulness is Enough’.
This is my favourite way into the present.
