Time is the driver of the conveyor belt of life. It keeps ticking along whether you grind all day or stop to smell the roses.
The belt keeps moving you forward. You can jump or run but it keeps you moving steadily at 1 tick at a time.
Use the time wisely.
You can try to rush things but that can cause tension in the universe and you may find faster is slower.
Be patient. Organise your time and leave plenty for the challenges that other people, machinery, technology or nature may throw at you.
If your mind is calm and the route is well planned, with ample contingency time, the challenges will be weathered without a storm.
Make patient and persistent progress and you will win.
Whether with your parents, spouse, kids, friends or whoever, enjoy your time together. Life is moving fast. Enjoy those moments before they disappear.
Whether it’s drinks on the deck or working through admin and papers, be sure to relish these moments as they won’t last long and may never come again.
Completing a project can be difficult for some people as they agonise over detail thinking it must be perfect. So they extend the amount of time they think they can use and delay the finish. Not ideal.
Set your finish date and meet it. Imagine if Olympic stadiums were completed 8 weeks late! Totally useless. So don’t do this with your projects.
Stay focused and complete it on time and within budget.
Things always seem dark and endless. Especially when you’re at your weakest point. Remain calm. You’ll get through this.
Sometimes you try to rationalise things in your mind because you want it to be so. But if your spidey senses are tingling, you should listen up.
Instinct, intuition, gut-feel, spidey senses and hunches are all very valuable energy cues from your environment and the universe. Trust that they are telling you something.
At times they can be spot on and other times they can lead you somewhere you hadn’t been. Either way, pay attention. The universe has your back.

Take the time to listen to what people are saying. Really engage your ears and hear what they are saying and why they are saying it. Engage with questions, comments and inflections.
Find out more than just the headlines. See behind those ideas and stories and learn the lesson being offered, whether inadvertently or with intent from the storyteller.
Enjoy the conversation you’re having. A great conversation can be fondly remembered for days or even years.
Inner strength and physical strength can both be augmented via mental strength. Build your mental strength to improve the others. Build your resilience and recharge process.
Sometimes a very deep breath, straightening your back, lifting your chin and feeling determined are enough to make an incredible and immediate shift in your mindset and perceived ability to succeed despite the challenges ahead.
