Time to change?

In time… out of time… no time… all of the time…. time to do this… a waste of time… time on our hands… time and time again… time to wake up… time heals… time travel… time to start?

There’s plenty of time all around us, all of the time in fact. The most important time of all though is right now.

Whatever we have done in the past stays in the past. It is done. We may be proud of what we have achieved, or we may feel embarrassed by it. There is nothing at all we can do to change whatever we have done in the past. If we feel that we need to make changes, the changes can only be made now. If we need to build our confidence to start to make those changes, the decision to start can only be made now. If we want to change our minds, we can only do that now. Whatever we need to do, we can only start now.

Dreams of our fantastic futures are just that. Dreams. They may be glimpses of our actual future, but we don’t know for sure as we aren’t there yet. We don’t want a terrible future, we want to be happy, healthy, wealthy and wise. We can only make the decision to be like that now. We can start to put the wheels in motion so our futures are bright, but only we can do that, and only we can choose to do that right now.

Forget about petty squabbles, embarrassing moments, what such-a-body thinks of you, what you think of what’s-her-face and anything else that is keeping you in a low place. Start to know that all of these things are just in the past. Move on. Actually be the person you want to be, rather than trying to be the person you think everyone else wants you to be. It may feel awkward at the beginning – any change does – but the awkwardness will go within time. The things that you wanted to change will have changed. But they will only change if you decide to take action and start to change them now.

We all know that time passes quickly. When will it be your time to start to live your life?
