Time Management for Inner Peace

Do you ever have so many important things to do that you don't even know where to start? Do your important goals get washed away through the incessant little disruptions that occur just as you are contemplating taking a step in the right direction?

If you answered "yes" to any of the above questions, suffice to say that the disruptions also put a chink into your sense of inner peace. Would you agree?

What if it were the other way around, because of your lack of inner peace, time management becomes a battlefield of the wills.

Try this: Take a moment to contemplate that which is most important to you, meaning, that which would take you one step closer to that which is nearest and dearest to your heart. What is the next one little step you could take right now, to go move towards that goal? Feel the resistance already coming up?

Great!

Now is the PERFECT moment, to practice time management for Inner Peace. Instead of running into more DOING. Take this very moment, to take ONE LITTLE STEP, even if it is acknowledging yourself for stopping to take the moment for yourself. The amount of time is unimportant. The fact that you DO IT, IS.

If you are really courageous, take ONE MORE LITTLE STEP NOW. Even if that step is saying YES, to yourself, you have already moved two steps further in the direction of your dreams.

How do you feel NOW? Once we take affirmative action, even, or especially when it comes from the inside out - even when it stays inside for awhile, provides us with a greater sense of Inner Peace.

How do you find this process for yourself? I am interested in your comments.

All the best,
Eliana
