Time - Precious Resource September 17 2003 at 9:34 PM

Between our first breath, to the time we exhale our last, We have only a limited amount of time. We can never make more of it, or buy more of it. Once its gone, we can never get it back. Time is our most precious resource. How do you use yours? Do you think you “wisely” utilize your time? Or are you like most people .... Procrastinate away more time then is sane?

Hands in the air...procrastinator.....

September 18 2003, 4:34 AM

I admit...I procrastinate...but my father told me a little something when I was young which I never really understood. It sounded very morbid but I now live my life with this thought all the time...

You were born to die!

I try not to waste too much time worrying about those things that I cannot fix...

The other saying I keep with me all the time is the Serenity Prayer...it gets me through more than I believe I can get through!

God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change
The courage to change the things I can
And the wisdom to know the difference

Very wise words!!!!!

Those really are wise words Boo ((((((You))))

I wish I could figure out how to “Not” worry about the things I can’t fix
I always think that if I just think things through hard enough ... look at the problem from each and all angles ...
spend enough time on thinking it through .....
An Answer WILL present its self!!!

And I Genuinely Love the Serenity Prayer!!!
There are lots of words of wisdom available to us ...
I read them all the time ...
Just can’t manage to incorporate them into my actual life!!

prioritizing....

September 20 2003, 10:32 AM

Hello.. my name is Charise,... and I'm a procrastinator. ~hangs head in shame~

But it all has to do with prioritizing I tell ya!

Those things that we all know are top priority..well, I put them off.. and put them off... and those things that are leizurely fun and what I really enjoy I spend endless amounts of time on. So to better prioritize I blaze through the top priorities as fast as I can before it's too late and the deadline passes...without really putting the effort or time into them that I should so I can hurry and get back to the fun stuff.

Prime example..paying the bills... a hated chore and yet one that will not go away. They sit and pile up until they are nearly due and Im forced to deal with them...~mutters~

Same with house work... hate hate hate! But I quick surface clean up job and ~poof~ done as good as it's gonna get cos I wanna get back to the fun stuff...

That is so bad... but is it a natural normal thing to do?
