Half of our lives are spent trying to find something to do, either at home or work it seems to be a relentless pursuit of something to occupy our time, and yet we still find each day to short for all the things we need to do. Wasting time drags and seems to last forever but when you are busy time flies by, the nice thing is, the future only comes one day at a time.
Part of the art of living is knowing what is important and what isn't, what can wait and what can not and not wasting time on things that are boring and don't need our immediate attention. How we spend our days is most certainly a reflection of how we spend our lives and will have a direct effect on our emotions and how we value ourselves. We should everyday stop for a moment, listen to a song or read a poem or just lie down for a few minutes and close our eyes, give your mind and your body these few minutes to relax and focus.
Happiness is a sort of atmosphere we live in sometimes if we are lucky but it isn't something you can count on daily if we don't look for it. It would be an illusion to think that more comfort means more happiness as probably anyone could tell you and it's a good idea every now and then to pause in our pursuit of comfort and just be happy.
Everybody probably knows one, this is the person that has no time for anything but accomplishing everything on a schedule and feels their life totally revolves around accomplishing these task. While we should certainly applaud their efforts there will come a day when they will look back and realize they never lived. There is the old saying that we spend the first part of our lives in pursuit of wealth and the second half in the pursuit of health, only to find out our health was scarified in the pursuit of wealth, this is a reality. |
Everyone wants success, wealth, happiness, love, good health and many others, but realizing it is difficult to have all of these at the same time is important because it allows you to be happy in the moment. If you want these things you can have them if you are patient, positive and work toward them, just don't try and achieve them all at the same time, you will end up very disappointed and exhausted.
Decision making

These decisions are for producing choices and actions associated with them and choosing alternatives. Many people have problems making decisions in the fear of failure and being responsible for it.

When people over think and over analyze a situation they become sort of paralyzed and will have difficulty in making a decision and in most cases will not take action at all. They decide ahead of time the task is to complicated or there are just to many details and options, so that a choice is impossible to make. This normally is only seen in work environments but have occasionally shown up at the home like when making a fatal decision based on hasty judgement or a gut reaction because doing the home work to make a logical decision was just to complicated. Like finding a contractor for a home remodel and not seeking help or not making an effort to research qualifications.
We all will procrastinated about something, usually it's putting off things you really need to do, but just don't want to in favor of doing something more enjoyable. You may feel there is time to do it later and work on something you can do quickly. This normally ends up being that item that doesn't get finished ever, like painting that bathroom. There are those with clinical diagnosis that suffer with impulsiveness, anxiety and a low sense of self worth which causes them to procrastinate. For some people, procrastination can be persistent and tremendously disruptive to everyday life and in some instances could even be classified as a psychological disorder.
With our often hectic schedules it's difficult to focus on all the things we need get done in our day to day lives. Children, work, extended family matters that we all frequently face, keep us from getting things done that we need to accomplish for ourselves. This isn't procrastinating we just have other things that are more important, so our personal issues just have to wait. Making list and prioritizing our day is a great way to accomplish task as long as something doesn't come up that needs our attention. Then our day has to be re-prioritized and even allowing certain task to not get done.
Today is that day
Our brain's are very powerful and great at retrieving information related to the things that we need to get done, but it isn't very good at determining ahead of time, we can't predict the future there are just too many variables.
