Imagine reframing your perception of what time is. What if you saw time as…

• Fluid
• Plentiful
• Available
• Abundant
• A blank canvas
• Expansive
• Ready
• Free
• Your friend (rather than your enemy)…

Imagine the difference in how you’d feel if one or more of the ones listed above was descriptive of how you view time. Just say these out loud and see what happens. And remember…you have all the time there is. ”Time is a created thing. To say ‘I don’t have time’ is to say ‘I don’t want to.’” ~ Lao Tzu

You Have All the Time There Is…Really

You have all the time that there is. You can rail against whatever you want to, but you have all there is. Can you look at time as fluid rather than fixed? I will grant you that we all have a set amount of time each day and each week. You have (and I and everyone else has) 168 hours a week…no more and no less. However, if you can make the shift that time is fluid rather than fixed (and it’s a shift that I’ve been working on to the point that I’m moving closer and closer to that mindset) you will surprise yourself at the increase in what you see as possible.

Once you become more familiar with the sense that there is an ample amount of time and adopt the thinking of, ‘Gosh, I have plenty of time today to do these things,’ then you will find yourself doing whatever it is you need to do in a much more relaxed and creative way than when you’re thinking, ‘Oh, it’s already 2:00, it’s already 3:00. Oh, no!’

The day is the exact same length of time and you have the exact same amount of stuff to do, yet it’s completely different in the way that it feels and it’s also completely different in your outcome. I promise. See what you find out in your own experience. It’s a shift.

And if your view of time is just one area that overwhelms you – and you would like to be ‘just whelmed,’ then you’re invited to join others (worldwide) who receive Meggin’s weekly emails (free!) at
