Time to relax, unwind and hopefully act on those big plans you have been making all week. Whether you're working Monday thru Friday, or working some odd schedule, you're always looking forward to your day off. We are working for the weekend. Waiting for the weekend.... And sometimes being miserable all week.
How are you spending your week? The weekend is not promised to anyone. As a matter of fact your next breath is not guaranteed. Are you spending your time looking forward to the time to come? Are you living, really living Monday through Friday?
I love weekends. I am guilty of putting things off for the weekend knowing very well I could do it today. And how often haven't we heard that saying? Why leave for tomorrow what you could do today?
Today, Friday, I urge you to stop putting things off. Stop living in the future and daydreaming about what the weekend may hold. Live Today. It may be the only day you have.
Reach out to others. Text, call, email... Love today. Go to the beach today. Enjoy your partner, your kids today. Hit the gym or at least take a stroll in your neighborhood. Read that book, take that class. Dont cook, go out for dinner in your backyard under the stars. Enjoy what's around you right now. Whatever you're putting off do it Now!
If you're reading this, you are present and able on this day. Why keep waiting for days that may never come?
Live today to your full potential. Laugh. Let go of grudges and fear. If you're stuck at work, change your perspective. Be thankful. Smile. Help somebody. Enjoy what you have and where you are on the way to where you're going.
Since it is the weekend go out and live it. Go do those things you've been putting off. That date, that dinner, that treat for your kids, those flowers for a loved one. But remember if you spend 5 out if 7 days looking forward only to 2... How much of your life are you wasting waiting instead of living. Make everyday a weekend!
(please forgive me today as I'm under the weather and the influence of Dayquil, but due to this topic, I couldn't wait to post it another day!)
