Are You Chasing Time? - Episode 13

Unlock Your True Purpose: How to Maximize Golden Time and Embrace Your Unique Talents

Hello Thumbody Friends!

In this newsletter, I'll be sharing insights from my book, "Chasing Carrots: Won't Help You Find Your Purpose if You Were Born to Love Bananas," and explaining how to make the most of your golden time to enhance your personal growth and embrace your unique skills and passions. This journey will help you uncover your true purpose and create a more meaningful and fulfilling life.

Many of us struggle with our relationship with time, often feeling stressed and overwhelmed by our never-ending to-do lists. This can lead us to chase after elusive "carrots," causing us to neglect our true purpose and passions. To overcome these problems and embrace your golden time, follow these steps:

Step 1: Reflect on your relationship with time

Ask yourself if you're constantly chasing carrots or if you feel that you have enough time to accomplish your goals and help others. By understanding your relationship with time, you can make better decisions about how to spend your hours and prioritize activities that align with your true purpose.

Step 2: Prioritize what truly matters

Focus on activities and relationships that align with your values, bring joy, and contribute to your personal growth. When you prioritize what genuinely matters, you'll be more likely to invest your time in activities that help you develop your unique skills and talents.

Step 3: Eliminate distractions

Identify time-wasters and eliminate or minimize them, so you can dedicate more time to the things you truly care about. By cutting out these distractions, you'll be able to focus on what truly matters and make the most of your golden time.

Step 4: Practice mindfulness

Engage fully in the present moment, appreciating the time you have and how you choose to spend it. Being present allows you to fully immerse yourself in the activities and experiences that bring you joy and fulfillment, helping you discover your true purpose.

Remember, the key to making the most of your golden time is to be intentional about how you spend your hours. By following these steps, you can unlock the power of your unique skills and talents, resulting in a more fulfilling life and a stronger personal brand.
