Keeping it All in Perspective

On some days, it seems as if there is simply too much to handle.

This certainly can happen after a holiday or when you've stretched yourself to the limits. That is why maintaining a balanced perspective is highly desirable. Remember, every day and at every age, your life holds the potential to stay active in the matters that count most.

* Take time to be with and enjoy friends and relatives, and to re-engage in your hobbies.

* Devise a realistic action plan that ensures you will master one of the important measures of living in real time. Then take on the rest.

* To reinforce your quest to maintain control of your time, peruse the works of others or keep rereading these tips!

 * You can choose to see the totality and completion of your life up to this minute anytime you want.

 * While you'll become older and slower, the best is yet to come, because you'll be able to draw upon your wisdom to steer your life faithfully in the desired direction.

Remembering Who’s in Charge

The only person who will be with you on every step of your life’s journey is you! Happily, you have the ability to steer yourself effectively.

* Much of the pressure we face, we created ourselves, and then we completely forgot that we did so.

* Living in the moment means being aware of your power in the present, and while it is not a recipe for winning back your time per se, it helps enormously.

* Don't charge through the day full throttle and expect to be at your peak level all the while; take breaks to ensure that you stay sharp.

* As often as practical, get to higher ground, figuratively or literally, for a clearer perspective.

You already possess the capability to adopt work-style changes that result in major gains in both productivity and peace of mind!
