Deep and wide. Life can be shallow and narrow, or deep and wide. When we finish our days, we don’t want to have little impact on the people around us, we want to leave a deep impression on them. We don’t want to leave a light mark on the earth, we want it to be wide. We only walk through life one time and time is our most precious commodity. It can’t be bought or sold, and there is no way to get it back once it is gone. It is so important that we redeem our time like the Bible tells us in Eph 5:16. We have to manage the moments that we have, because they are precious. If our time is limited, it means that we have to be even more diligent with the minutes and hours that we do have. It means finding a way to work smarter and not just harder. We can make time management choices that help us eliminate the non essentials, and add value to the time that we do have to do the things that are most important. It also means making the best use of the time of day when we are most alert and productive. When making your daily schedule, we can’t eliminate the most important things, which aren’t things at all. They are relationships, and people are definitely more important than projects. Live passionately every day, from morning to night, making the most of your time, and valuing your relationships. Live in the moment, valuing each moment. Time is fleeting and precious.
