Life is an amazing teacher if we allow ourselves to become students. As I get older I understand the value of time and the significance in knowing just how to spend my time. So often we tend to invest time in things and people who serve us little to know purpose, while neglecting the very ones that pour into and sacrifice for us.
We spend time on jobs that will continue with our without our presence. We invest in people's business who have no idea who we are. We focus our energy in things that will never reap dividends to us, and then we become frustrated when we realize that we have wasted time on the wrong things.
One of the greatest lessons I have learned is to know where to invest my time. I will share with you 3 important areas of life to always invest time in.
1.) God- Allow God to be your foundation. Often times we only rely on Him when we hit a brick wall or the storms of life began to brew. Build a relationship that is solid. When you walk with God you will have a sure foundation to stand on regardless of what life brings.
2.) Yourself- Stop putting yourself last. When you constantly put others in front of yourself, you often become resentful of their success. It's your fault if you don't take time to care for your own well-being.. It's your fault if you don't pursue your dreams. It's your fault if you don't live to your greatest potential. You can't blame anyone else. It is possible to work full time, have a family, and still pursue your dreams. It's time for you to prioritize! If you don't do it now, you will watch someone else live the dream you dreamt.
3.) Family & Friends- Make time for those who love you. In a world were so many people are cold hearted, it's important to embrace those individuals who truly and sincerely love you. They are the ones who hold you down and have your back no matter what; cherish them. Stop procrastinating. Take that family vacation. Go on that girls trip or hang with your boys. Value those who value you!
Listen, life is unpredictable and time is precious. Please make sure you are using your timely wisely. ❤️
