Snow Day
There's snow day like the present, am I right? You are granted the opportunity to spend quality time with the people you love when you are snowed in. You get the chance to build the moments that will later become the memories you all will look back on. Are you going to store it in your mind as an inconvenience or a lucky break for you and your family?
Today is the only day you are this exact age. The same goes for your partner and children, they are only 8 years and 204 days old for this day only. The chance to do that special thing is only guaranteed for today if you choose to do the things that are needed to be done in order to make that thing truly happen, today. Soon is always too soon when the day it can no longer happen inevitably arrives. Death is a certainty for every single living thing. Tomorrow is not promised to us, no matter what we tell ourselves in an effort to comfort and fill the void. We arrive to a point where we wish we had another day, yet we sit in a current reality where we don't even utilize the days that we currently do have. What if we actually maximized, not just utilized, all the time we have in a day?
Why should you have to sacrifice the important things that are so personal just to reach a goal? Have you re-evaluated your goals accordingly to make sure meeting them still aligns with other goals and priorities you may have developed since you set those goals in the first place? It is natural for your goals to shift as you grow. It is okay to outgrow a previous goal, it's less okay to quit on a goal just because you find it hard. Most times, you will find yourself growing the most when you are uncomfortable and find it a challenge to accomplish something you really want.
You need to find a balance when you don't know what it is you need. You have to focus on what you really want, yet be able to step back and recalibrate based on what else is developing and going on around you. The richness of time is what truly makes an individual wealthy. Dictating and determining how you spend your time and who you spend it with is power you have all for yourself to control. Make sure your target is still what is most important to you in the present moment and not just something you wanted in the past. We can't chase yesterday, all we can live is today.
