Time Begins Now

Soft Watch At Moment of First Explosion ~by Salvador Dali

"Until you value yourself, you won't value your time. Until you value your time, you will not do anything with it." ~M. Scott Peck


Yes, the painting by Dali represents the last few moments before the end of time. But the representation could be what happens to time as it passes us. Or maybe it is the idea that time is slowly melting away from us. In many instances, where does time really go?

The start of a new year such as 2010 is the marking of time only. Some use it as the beginning of something different and the end to something old. For others it is a continuation of both. Either way, time is a resource and what we do with it matters greatly.

Time unused can be considered in some ways, time wasted. Does this mean one has to be productive with every waking moment? Not at all. There are things you want to do in your life. You want more 'things', you want more 'accomplishment', you want a 'greater life'. Yet if all you do is 'want', then time slips away and is wasted.

Eventually time is gone, melted away and lost forever.

But if you believe in yourself, if you respect your ability and worth to the short time we actually have, then time becomes meaningful. It will become a valued part of your life. Use time in the benefit of the life you live. It will create a much greater life.

Time is on your side more then it is against you. Use the time you have. Do not wait until tomorrow. Begin now...
