To live is so startling, it leaves but little room for other occupations.
Emily
Dickinson
Is your
life startling, remarkable?
I hope so.
Is living
so remarkable that it is hard to find time for anything else?
The
wonderful career mums I help often struggle with the opposite.
“Other
occupations” take so much of their time it leaves little room for living a
remarkable life.
Many people squeeze the remarkable part of life into a few hours in the weekend or possibly the vacation. If that vacation, burdened by unreasonable expectations to make up for months filled with ”other occupations” feels less than phenomenal, it is easy to become thoroughly unhappy.
If my
vacation doesn’t feel fun and wonderful, how can I find joy in the rest of my
grey life?
By not
waiting until you “have time” for the remarkable life.
Or, to use
the terminology I use when I teach Holistic Time Management:
Make sure
there is WANT time in every glass of time, make sure you do something you love
every week. Something remarkable.
Also make sure that the “other occupations” you do, arent’ boring or energy draining.
Don’t allow yourself to be forced to do anything.
That
something needs to be done doesn’t mean you need to do it.
Turn your
shoulds into coulds, as I state in the Holistic Time Management course.
It’s your
life, you get to choose.
Choose to
live a startling life.
Every week.
