The Power Of One Day

Posted on December 8, 2024

Spoiler alert‼️ Life ends.

For some people it’s quietly, alone in their sleep. For other people it may be more sudden, severe or unexpected.

However it happens, and whenever the buzzer goes, it is usually preceded by a fight for survival. We have an inborn desire to survive. And yes, we will automatically go into fight, flight or freeze mode, but if there is time, many of us will choose fight in order to survive.

While fighting will be in our own way, we will fight for time with our loved ones and to see another day.

The power of one more day can be immense.

Check out this powerful and moving 20 second reel by Ed and you’ll understand this even better.

Restructure Your Day

Posted on April 10, 2024

Do you have any structure to your day? If you work from home, are retired, are between jobs or are a primary carer, your day may not have much structure. For people with a structured day this may seem like a dream.

However, it could become a disaster. Without structure, or order, life can get pretty freeflowing, or chaotic. That may seem odd but it depends on how you look at things.

If you don’t have a set plan for each day, you just fall into whatever you stumble upon or are asked to do. This freeflowing nature can be liberating for awhile but is not a great way to live life if you have some specific goals to achieve before you’re not capable or before you die.

Structure in your day, whether imposed (by say a job) or self imposed, is very good to achieve more and reduce anxiety. So decide on your hourly activities, write them down and follow the structure.

A Directionless Day

Posted on December 26, 2023

Every once in a while it is good to have a directionless day. A day where nothing is planned and you do what you feel like doing. If most of your days are structured or urgent and pressing, it is nice to have a day to do as you please as the moment arrives.

I wouldn’t fill the day with anything in advance. Do the things that strike you in the moment. Indulge in the pure freedom of the entire day. It’s a very luxurious feeling. Enjoy.

Boxing Day Relax

Posted on December 25, 2022

The thing I love about Boxing Day is that it really is a nothing day. I feel no compulsion to do anything. Although I think I should check out some sales and pick up a few things that are now in the need category, I won’t probably do it and will enjoy doing nothing.

There is no requirement to see anyone. It’s not like a bank holiday Monday where you try to get away for the long weekend because of it either. It’s a day to relax and truly do nothing. Or anything you want.

Rather than Boxing Day, I think of it as Bonus Day.

Enjoy!!!

Favourite Day Of The Week

Posted on November 2, 2022

Do you have one? It might reveal a lot about you.

Monday might mean you love your job or business. Sunday could indicate you love rest, sport or family time. Thursday could mean you love that you’re nearly done the week and can begin to relax with an evening out.

Think about the day that currently brings the most joy. Consider what it means in your life.

Then revel in it.

What Makes A Wonderful Day?

Posted on February 27, 2022

Sunshine? Warmth? Health? Family? Friends? A purpose? Winning at something? A kind word said to you? Kind action from another person? A flower? Good news? A phone call from an old friend? Completing a task? A cease fire? A peace treaty? A favourite song?

You don’t need 24 full hours of wonderful to declare, and feel, it’s a wonderful day. It can be one simple thing.

I had a wonderful day today. Gorgeous sunshine. Warmth from the sun. Blue skies. Freedom. Confidence in our institutions and law. Coaching and watching my son’s rugby ? team. He scored a try and played very well.

Then I went to watch my other son play field hockey. He scored a goal and helped his team to victory in the England Hockey quarterfinals. On to the semis!

There have been other lovely moments today too. But those really made it wonderful. Being healthy and able to enjoy children having fun, with some competitive tension, can make one blissful.

My wish for you is many, many wonderful days in your life. Keep it simple, observe and enjoy.
