Quiet Time -- Motivational Minute (13_44)



Quote of the day:

“To take time to think is to take time to live.” – Nancy Kline

Consider:

When do you take time for quiet reflection? If you think you can’t possibly allot  time for this in your busy day, why not try something radical? Study over your schedule and see how you can carve out some time to be alone.

Perhaps you can cut down on time watching TV, or time spent on the Internet. You might consider arranging your schedule so you can rise early enough to have some time of quiet before you start your day. There is something very special about rising before the hustle and bustle of the day begins—a deep sense of peace fills the air if you stop long enough to notice, and in these quiet moments alone, you hear things that you otherwise don’t notice during the day.

If you just can’t manage taking this time in the morning, set some time aside in the evening. This practice can have an immense impact on your life. Fewer decisions have the power to transform your life as does the habit of taking time to get alone and quiet, to meditate, pray, reflect, or simply sit still and listen to the quiet. Why not try it?

Taking time in quiet solitude, is taking time to live.

Wishing you all the best,

Coach Dana
