    Never enough time - or is there?

    Time_clo Earlier this evening I was thinking about how quickly time passes. Without realizing it several days have passed since I last posted anything in my Daily Awareness blog. Sure, the intention was there, but I have long realized intention without action soon becomes frustration.

    How many people live in the space of frustration? The fact is, there is not enough time to do all we think we must do, want to do or dream of doing. There is just too much to do, calls to make, people to see.

    We feel over-worked and underpaid. There are not enough resources to do the job. Multiple projects and priorities eat away at our day. Day timers, organizers and palm pilots assist us in the efficient use of our time. Traffic reports guide us to work; weather reports prepare us for the ride home. We punch into a time clock or we are exempt and never punch out.

    Is it so difficult managing time or is our expectation for achievement so high that the 24 hours in a day is simply not enough?

    It is so easy to waste time and never recapture a missed moment. Where you spend your time determines how you live your life; in peace or in turmoil, in love or in fear.

    One of the few things we truly possess is time. There is only so much you can do and only so many roles you can play. How we choose to use the here and now is a personal and a powerful choice. Choose wisely.

    Hi, Kathleen,

    This topic has been coming up more and more for me in the past few months. Lately, though, it has been an 'in my face' issue. It seems I am meeting more and more people with a time problem and looking for solutions.

    Thank you for posting this. Though it doesn't give solutions, it does make one feel better knowing that we are not alone in this dilemma.

    Hi Sue,

    I appreciate you feedback. One of the ways to allow more space in your day is to evaluate what you can logically let go of that is not a productive way to spend your time.

    I've learned that just as important as deciding what you will do, is the decision of what you will not do.

    I've learned the paradox: I do more when I do less.

    Hi Kathleen:

    Your posting on having enough time to do all of the things we have to and want to is timeless! Personal and professiona relationships are affected by the way each of us decides to what we will give our attention. All of us have the same 24 hours to choose how we use that time without feeling resentment or unfulfilled.

    Relationships and connections are most important to creating a life of joy. They take time and behavior that comes from our heart and soul. It is our choice to end each day with a feeling of peace.

    Thank you,
    Roz Trieber
