If I had two wishes, one would be to be to slow time down and the other would be to have the benefit of hindsight. In other words to be able to look ahead and act on things unseen .

It would certainly make life a whole lot easier…but in both cases it will not happen….and on reflection I am glad that God didnt allow it to happen in my life.

And that is the key to living a victorious life…letting God work through you the plan that he has had designed personally and exclusively for you.

One thing is really important to understand, make every day count. It is that important. Not just to selfishy make wealth or accumulate things, but rather make each day a day a fulfilled day, a day of purpose.

With that comes a challenge- make every day a chance to do something that will encourage or enhance the lives of others.It doesn’t have to be something grand. It doesn’t have to be done with a great fanfare, but it can be done low key…even anonymously.

Sadly there are many lonely, disullusioned, deflated people out there …who have no vision for the future.  People who have simply lost their dreams and aspirations.

A number of years ago  I suffered for a time with depression. It was terrible. People said just put a smile on your face and get over it. Get a hobby in other words get a life. Such advice didn’t work or certainly help.It took time for my body to recover as I had suffered severe burn out .

But a lot of depression is circumstancial.  Change the circumstances and you can remove the depression. Get to it early enough and you will reduce its effects.

Life is going to get harder for many. For a large number the world recession is already hurting people badly.

But to have a life with no regrets you need to have Peace of mind .

This is my simple message  Just make time, by not wasting time.

Remember time does not stand still. I often think it would be so good in older age to have the drive and vitality of youth. In other words Wisdom of old age  and  the High Energy Levels of the young and fit.

Happiness and fulfilment is not based on making huge amounts of money. True happiness is knowing what you have done with your life has been worthwhile, either in your eyes or those around you ….family, friends and business colleagues.

Do something kind for someone else today….and if you say you have not got time….use the time you have saved by not wasting it on things you have selfishly used it for yourself.

Save a 10th of  the time you are awake  that is at least 90 minutes …….use it to help others . It maybe the best 90 minutes you willk spend today!!!

We will talk again soon
