Make time in your Life for you Life

Written By Rebecca Koch

Make time in your life for your life.

Let that sink in for a bit.

 Make time in your life for life.

 Do you? I know I am not very good at it.  If my calendar isn’t full, I don’t know what to do with myself.  Most days, I am scheduled from the moment I wake up until the moment I go to bed.  Crazy really! 

 In today’s world, we wear “busy” like a badge of honor. We pack our lives so full of activities that we forget to actually enjoy our life. So what can we do to change it?  How about scheduling down time. I know it sounds silly. But what about scheduling time to just “be”?

  • Have a cup of coffee with a friend

  • Take a leisurely walk

  • Sit in the garden

  • Go fishing

  • Take time to read a fun book

  • Enjoy the sunshine

  • Watch the rain

  • Appreciate the sunrise or sunset

  • Gaze at the stars

  • Color

  • Paint

  • Daydream

 I challenge you – for the next week, schedule 10 minutes to just “be” each day. No agenda. Just “be”.
