I am currently reading the “The Purpose Driven Life” by Rick Warren. Today’s lesson really hit home as it connected “what matters most” with good time management. Time is our most precious gift as we only have a set amount of it and none can be recovered.

Because your life is ALL ABOUT time and how you spend it, this is why the greatest gift you can give someone is your time. In order to do this you must schedule what’s important and create a STOP DOING list in order to focus on the things that matter most.

The answer therefore to what matters most is “time that you give loved ones.” Every moment we give our children, our family or our friends and especially the time we take to really listen to our wives are the greatest gifts of all.

These sentences and reflections really gave me a lift today and renewed perspective:

The best use of time is love.
The best expression of love is time.
The best time to love is now.

Why now? Because you don’t know how long you will have this opportunity. Circumstances change. People die. Children grow up. You have no guarantee of tomorrow. If you want to express love, you better do it now.

To anyone who sees or reads this post… INVEST TIME NOW with all your loved ones
