' We Never Have Enough Time ' !
Quite Frankly, I Don’t Think “ Time ” Is The Problem.
The real problem is the number of activities or tasks that we take on.
A sign of our time is that we forget how to say “ No,” and take on far too many things.
Our time is like jam, the more you try to spread it, the thinner it gets.
We need to be realistic about the amount of time we have available.
We need to maintain a proper balance in our life by allocating the time we have.
There are occasions where saying no is the best time management practice there is.
We need to determine what activities best utilize our time in order to achieve the results we desire in all areas of our life !
Reflections:
I’ve learned that you can’t have everything and do everything at the same time.
Oprah Winfrey
You’re alive.
Do something.
The directive in life, the moral imperative was so uncomplicated.
It could be expressed in single words, not complete sentences.
It sounded like this:
Look.
Listen.
Choose.
Act.
Barbara Hall
But what minutes !
Count them by sensation, and not by calendars, and each moment is a day.
Benjamin Disraeli
Time is what we want most, but… what we use worst.

I loved this!!! Sooo true.
I especially liked the beginning of the quote by Barbara Hall.
You\'re alive.
Do something.
That say\'s it all to me. :-)
Oh, P.S. I tried to reply to your journal about \"Tried everything twice\" but DS was telling me it was not available.......and to let them know if there was a problem.
Just thought I would tell you. You are alot easier to talk to than DS. lol.
Wishing you a wonderful weekend.

Another great post! Time is so precious we must pick and choose what we do with it and try to live our life to the fullest.

I love what you wrote so much! Nowadays we do spread ourself too thin. I think that is why there are more mental health issues with people. For me it was a build up but I was working two jobs with small children and then just eventually burned out. As my mother says I burned the candle at both ends for too long.
Love the quotes. I especially like William Penn\'s.
