Time Snatchers



"A purpose driven woman knows how to distinguish her assignment,
from that which is not hers."
Gift Gugu Mona

Throughout the day, time snatchers interrupt our intentions. Our well-planned day consistently shifts causing a change in time allotment.  If we run late or our presence is requested elsewhere, the element of time is disturbed. There are just so many hours in the day. Unfortunately, reserved time for the self is the hardest hit.

Grab some post it notes. On each piece of paper, leisurely jot down individual intentions such as read one chapter in a favorite book, sit outside for 15 minutes, connect with a friend, yoga stretches, or a quick gesture for the neighbor. Now place each one on the refrigerator where they can be seen. Remove only when completed.

We are successful and organized but devalue snippets of intention to ease us through our day. We may think of them, and just as quickly dismiss them. If we have them posted, we are more likely to include them throughout our busy day.  The quality of our actions will improve when we overrule the time snatchers.
