Time is of the Essence

Time is of the essence is so clichΓ© but it is a matter of fact. As the picture’s words say, “One thing you can’t recycle is wasted time”

Time is so #precious and #priceless. It is important to be #purposeful and #intentional with using your time.

Time can’t be recycled. Let me help you understand “once it is used, it can not be used again or used for something else”

TIME IS MONEY

Time is like money where it needs to be budgeted but this is something most of us do not consider to do, “create a budget for our time” However, we can have good time management strategies such as using a calendar, wearing a watch, and being on time for appointments.

Time is not like money where it can be saved for later. What ever time you have now, has to be used now. Unused time is wasted time.

Make a list and check it twice

Make a list of things you do throughout the day. When you review the list, determine where you may not be using your time wisely. However, using time to take care of your needs is using your time wisely. Start using a calendar to help yourself better manage time.

Keep in mind: Time is of the essence.

Self-care

Self-care is when others tend to their own needs as a way to avoid illness on multiple levels. There are various ways to do it and it is vital to know beneficial strategies.

Drink a cup of tea

Self-care is knowing when to sit still, make noise, go slow, move forward, and let things go. Most of all, it’s knowing self and what helps one to be their best self. Take care of yourself.

Another facet of self-care is to avoid situations that are contrary to being your best. These encounters can bring noise, danger, violence, agitation, tension, or unpleasant feelings. Honestly, people, places, and things can interfere with self-care.

Ultimately, self-care is an investment. Make sufficient deposits that enable you to withdraw. These deposits can be affirmations, time alone, nurturing your body and soul, and a healing environment.

It is important to identify times for self-care. One may have to make a date with self. There is nothing wrong with that. Mark, your calendar to take of yourself in the same manner as you do for a meeting, a trip, or family gathering. It’s necessary to do something you like, that helps you to reset and re-energize.

Take the time to do it right and keep in mind there is nothing wrong with taking care of yourself.

Seasons

The best season of the year

I was born during the Autumn season in the month of October. My birthday is in a few days. I’m looking forward to celebrating life with my family.

This season represents a cycle to me. The leaves change colors, fall from the trees, with the sun shining bright during the crisp mornings. This season is preparation for the next season, Winter. It’s a time of transition. An interesting fact is one can sit comfortably outside wearing a sweater while drinking a cup of hot tea. Yes, exactly, a cup of hot tea.

Like the Legend of the Phoenix, it all ends with beginnings.

Just like weather seasons, there are seasons of life. Be mindful of the beginnings and endings. Learn to know the levels of change. Despite the expectation of change, it will happen because life is all about changes. Appreciate each season because it provides something helpful. Nothing lasts forever.

It’s harvest time. To everything there is a season and a time for every purpose under the heaven.

Progress

Progress

Striving for #progress is about working towards #change that is measurable. It’s based on one’s own standard and #competition with previous efforts or success.

There is always room for change and it’s great to have space for growth. One ingredient for change is a challenge. 

In the words of Frederick Douglass, “If there is no struggle there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom and yet deprecate agitation are men who want crops without plowing up the ground; they want rain without thunder and lightening..Power concedes nothing without a demand.”

Just know there will be #buffers #agitation, much work to be done for the sake of #progress. Keep track of the #objectives met, #goals achieved, and #accomplishments. Keep your eyes on the prize while you #strive to better than your best.

New territory

Congratulations, I did something so unexpected. I created a website to write a blog. I don’t like to write but I share my thoughts on various social media platforms daily. Now, I’m on another one. #peace #blessings βœŒπŸ½πŸ™πŸ½ with positive #energy #vibes

I have some things to share about my profession, social work. I love being a social worker but believe some things must change such as focusing on the foundation and helping poor people for real in a real way. We are change agents and must discontinue perpetuating the negative stereotypes of what others think of the profession. We #advocate #activate #organize collaboratively with the voiceless. Dare to be different for difference sake.

Help me help others be better in their home, neighborhood, work, community, institution, organizations, and overall life. Each person has a right to self-determination and is entitled to choose for themselves whether anyone agrees or not.

I’m celebrating my efforts to crystalize my thoughts about particular topics such as #education #healthcare #spiritual #community #policy and other issues related to #socialwork which is EVERYTHING!!! Just in case you needed a reminder. Expect me to defy limitations and deviate from a sense of normal. Yes, I’m going beyond so enjoy this journey with me.

VIVA LA REVOLUCION!!! long live the revolution
