Don’t Wait Until It’s Too Late To Reach For Your Dream!

Don’t wait until it is too late to get “That Thing” done! You know “That Thing.” It’s the dream, decision, action, or project started with good intentions but now “That Thing” has been relegated to the back burner of your life. “That Thing” may have once been your passion and dream but life’s responsibilities just got in the way of accomplishing it. Unresolved projects, decisions, dreams, and actions, oh my! We all have them. But don’t wait until it is too late to make the decision and achieve that dream still waiting on your back burner. Or it may never happen and that would be a tragedy.

Hinderances and Excuses

There is a universe of reasons why we don’t achieve the dreams and ambitions we once had. Sometimes those dreams are immature. What we valued as a teenager may no longer be valued as highly as we age. The entrance of child rearing years is a huge time hinderance to our individual interests and pursuits for a season. But let’s not forget all the daily excuses we make instead of just picking “That Thing” back up for a few minutes each day and working on it. I’ll let you fill in the excuse blank here. Excuses like, “I’m too tired! I don’t have the money. I don’t have the time,” are only but a few basic rationalizations. Those excuses can be overcome if we really wanted to get “That Thing” done. Let’s quit making excuses and allowing every hinderance to prevent us from completing and achieving our dreams.

What A Few Minutes A Day Can Do!

I have learned a great lesson as I have aged. Taking and appropriating small time slots every day can get MUCH accomplished that would otherwise go undone. Reconfigure your time allotments. This works for EVERYTHING! Weeding, decluttering, cleaning, laundry, quilting, crafting, blogging, exercise, etc. etc. etc. You name it! If you can’t take an hour or two to devote to “That Thing” all at once then break down the time slots into more digestible sizes. Hours are pretty big chunks of time to carve out in a busy day. Fifteen to thirty minute blocks are easier to squeeze in. Even a few minutes diligently appropriated daily accumulates into steady progress at the end of the week. Don’t underestimate what a few minutes a day can do!

Time

Time. It is the most precious commodity that we have. We all get the same amount of hours in a day to utilize. We all think that there is a never ending amount of time. However, that is a huge misconception. One day we will run out of time to accomplish all the things, large or small, that we wanted to do. One day the sands in the hourglass will indeed run out. I hope sincerely, that when time runs out on you, that it will be without much regret. Don’t wait until it is too late to reach for your dream. Begin today!
