When you start to count the hours.. what’s really important?

To that someone:

We overload with commitments
We overload with possessions
We overload with work
We overload with information technology

We forget about family
We forget about friends
We worry about the credit card
We forget about quality time

There is approx. 8760 hours in a year. So far we’ve already used up about 87 hours.

When you think about life in this way.. what’s really important?

Are you a 110%?

The people that I really honour and respect in life are people that work hard, or work with a desire to give 110%. They want to be the very best that they can be.

110%, it comes with choice – Life is full of choices.

My husband Jai was teaching a young boy the other day on the violin. However, he wasn’t playing up to his normal standard.

Jai asked: “Have you practiced this week?”
There was a moments pause and the student answered: “Not really”
Jai replied: “Is that a not really, or a yes?”
The student replied: “No, not much”

Jai went on to say:

Never let a tortoise shell get in the way…

Pound, Pound, Pound, Pound – The heart is beating, the breath is heavy, the pulse is throbbing inside your head. . . It’s called the race of life!

Now for someone who may not know me, I’m a little bit competitive. (Maybe just a little.) My brother Ben, my husband Jai and myself went running yesterday. We had to run about 1KM to the oval where we were heading. Now, for someone who’s (as I said before) just a little bit competitive, it was extremely frustrating and disheartening to see my fellow runners at least 100 metres ahead of me. I’ve never liked the long distance running and as I heaved and puffed and heaved and pushed in the end I ended up saying:

“You go on, I’ll catch up!“
