I know what’s like to be busy and how much of the things around you, you don’t take note of. You just can’t help it. Can I do something about it you wonder? Yes, you can. When we talk about busyness and fruitfulness, we are literally addressing the way we use our time. Time is a resource that God has given us and he’s expecting us to be fruitful with it. Over the years i have learned not to use some certain words, words like “Am too busy”, “I can’t do this now”, “I don’t have the time for this”, “I am just passing the time”. My people, time is not a commodity to kill or to pass. It’s a stewards that’s to be harnessed.
Personally, i don’t like to waste time. I like to be productive with every minute. I don’t like to be kept waiting for a long time when i can be doing something resourceful and worthwhile with my time but yet again being impatient doesn’t help and it definitely hasn’t helped me much. I make dilligent effort to keep everything on schedule and that doesn’t mean everything and everyone have to work according to your schedule, you must be able to strike a balance and work with everyone.
Keeping everything on schedule sometimes​ gets me into trouble because circumstances sometimes causes me to fall behind, and then i have to rush. I don’t like to hurry, i don’t like the pressure of doing things hurriedly and so right now i am learning to put a little more margin in my life. I am also learning how to allow more time in between appointments, schedules, ect.
There are times when you do not have enough minutes or hours to complete a task or do something you want to do, but it’s too early to do the next thing you need to do. Whenever you have five, ten, or fifteen minutes, don’t just kill your time. Use it productively. Read something either a book or a Bible, pray, spend it with your children, check up on those friends or acquaintances that you never have time to visit, encourage someone, write, listen to good musics, appreciate those around you. You never know whose life you will be affecting with that little time. When you have a few minutes, make them count.
I have to get ready for school…..To be continued…..
Great words Whitney and yes every moment is precious so why waste it.
We don’t need to or have to at all. Thanks for dropping by.
Hmmm
https://polldaddy.com/js/rating/rating.jsThank you Whitney for writing on this topic. I struggle with catching up with time and juggling responsibility. I did learn a few tips from you which I’ll include in my schedule.
I’m happy to hear that and do let me know how it works out for you. Go on and keep making every minute count. It’s very thoughtful of you to drop by and share with us.
Nice again, what I could be said about it?, human beings living as machines in modern time and our motto is the time is money, unfortunately no profit is could be a useless thing and I adore minimum details and disconnecting in the digital world.
We must be resetting our lives as human being no computer and shout aloud live It up… only one
Do you really think we can reset our lives David? What if we don’t get the opportunity to? I totally agree that we have only one life to live and we need to live it up. Thanks David for your wise contribution.
Whitney you’ve got the answers to question, really in order to reset, I think no and we’re living in a machine style then a great disease is in our horizons “narcissism” the disease in the modern time and a magnificent book by Alexander Lowen???

Thank you for your kind gesture. I truly appreciate it.
Beautiful I love it.
Thanks dear. How was your day?
You’re welcome. My day was awful. Thank you for asking me. I appreciate that. How was your day?
Excellent blog. Yes, every minute is priceless. Why spend it just sitting around. I like the mention of spending those free minutes with your kids as we take them for granted at times because we get so caught up in our busy schedules.
We are all guilty of that. We are always preoccupied with chasing after our dreams and making ends meet. Which is not a bad thing but we should learn to strike a balance and prevent our children from paying for our lapses. Thank you for sharing with us. It’s very thoughtful of you.
https://polldaddy.com/js/rating/rating.jsGod bless you for such a great post. Thanks so much for the insight.
Awesome post we need to learn to make time for the important things in our lives and not just excuse our lack of care for no time.
Definitely my dear. Thank you very much for your wise contribution.
Any day Whitney?
