Each and every day, life gives us 24 hours a day and it's in this 24 hours that we must decide exactly what it is that we want in life and what we want to make out of our lives. Every single morning when you wake up, always take a moment to think hard about what you want out of that day's time and then wake up and go for it. Our time in this world is very limited and this is why we need to be cautious and decisive about the time we have.

Think back to the "TV game" or video games as we commonly called it; just how devastated you would be if you ran out of time before completing a certain stage. Think about how eagerly you would restart that stage, do things differently and finish it on time. Those video games demonstrated the importance and value of time in life. They made us realise that time is precious, thus it should not be taken for granted. Think about how hurt you felt when someone wasted your time. You were hurt and angry because you knew that time is precious. That no matter what you do, you will never ever be able to recover that wasted time.

I often say to people: "Don't let one moment in your day, week, or month make you feel like you have a bad life." It's what you do with the time you have, that will shape your life the way you desire. Every single day, with the time that life provides to us, some people wake up and chase their dreams, while others sit back, procrastinate and watch others achieve their dreams. Others wake up in the morning and focus their energy on the positives in life despite the bad things going on in their lives, others wake up every morning without any zeal for the day that lies ahead. They wake up every morning and give in to the bad things happening instead of using the time they have to change their situation. While you wake up every morning and spend your time making excuses and finding something or someone to blame for your lack of progress in life, why you're not happy in life... people out there are using the very same time to find reasons why they can do it. They are finding ways to be happy and make life worthwhile. Write this down: "We are all exactly where we are today, right now, based on what we decided to do with our time. Every single person in life gets an equal amount of time. No amount of money or political connections can ever give you more time than everyone else. Spend your time wisely. Certain people and certain things in life are worth your time, while others are not. Know the difference between the two. Some people will just come into your life to waste your time, don't allow them. Certain things in life are there to waste your time; get rid of them.

Time flies. Manage it well. Time can never be reserved for later use; use it; don't lose it. Remember that time will never be enough for you to do anything and everything you wish to. So, make time for people and things that matters the most in life.

Today being CHOOSEDAY, I challenge you to CHOOSE to spend your time wisely.

Happy CHOOSEDAY!
