Future Uncertain

We, really, have no guarantee that we will be here tomorrow. Or the next day. Or the next.

Our Future is Uncertain. We will run out of time. Eventually. The question and unknown variable is when.

The Reality of Life is that our Time Here is Limited and Finite.

We are So Lucky to even be here today!  Many, who we have known and loved, are already gone; with no more tomorrows. How many more tomorrows do we have? What would we do differently if you had a Date Certain when you will be parting ways with life as we know it? What if we had, beginning right now at this very moment and point in time, only 24 Hours To Live? One Week? One Year?

We sometimes live and act as though we do not fully grasp this reality and the ramifications.  Are we living with a Sense of Urgency and are we Passionately Pursuing all of the Personal Goals that we have set for ourselves ever single day that we are fortunate enough to be alive? Are we packing in the excitement, the challenge, the personal achievements, and great accomplishments which we consistently achieve every single day?

Or, are we living Passively? Reactively? Like we are just passengers who have no control over in which direction we are heading. Have we lost our focus? Our drive? Do we no longer have a core set of top priorities, goals, and objectives, that drive us and towards which we should be focusing all of our energy and time on every day? Have we lost our Passion?

Is there a personal dream you once had that you have since forgotten or just given up on as the years passed? Lost all hope and desire as a result of the everyday grind of life and the many obstacles that we periodically face which slow us down and leave us deflated? Have we decided to take the easier path with less challenge, less resistance, and requiring less commitment?

What are your Personal Priorities? What are the most important things to you? A very wise person once wrote to me that "We Devote Our Time, Energy, and Money Into What We Value The Most." Think about that just for a moment. What have you been focusing on these days? Are your actions in line with and fully supportive of all of your stated Priorities and your Personal Goals? Or, have you over time fallen prey to the superficial aspects and negative temptations of life and moved away from spending time where you should be?

If You, If We, are not absolutely Fired Up and Highly Motivated, we most certainly should be!  Life is Short. Our Days Are Finite. We are certainly not getting any younger.  When we look back at our lives at an older age our goal should be to be able to say "No Regrets" as opposed to "how much better would things have been if I did this or didn't do that."

What If (not out of the realm of possibility!)you received notification right now: your Future is No Longer Uncertain. You Have One Month To Live. Think about it.  Slowly.  Think hard about what your thought process would then be......  What would you do?  How would you feel?  Who would you call? 

On what, if you received the "Deadline" Notification stated above, and with your assumed newfound focus and clarity, would you begin spending your precious time?? What would you do differently tomorrow?  What would your five most important Personal Goals be to achieve during your remaining time?  What components of your life would you know label as "no longer a priority" considering your new knowledge of how much time you have remaining? 

My Message: We Should Focus Only On What is Important And A Priority To Us; We Should Shed The Rest.  And Get Moving.......Procrastination Is The Thief Of Time.......and We Have Only So Much (?)Time.
