The impact of Importance

This week or maybe even month, I am going to focus on "importance".

How important is it to you?

How often do we actually take the time to ask this question in depth before we make our decisions in life? We are so quick to say that something is important, but when you stop to truly look at it, how important is it really to you?

When I talk about "it", I am referring to things and people.

How important is it really for you to spend time with someone?
How important is it really for you not getting to the place where you wish you did spend time with that person?

How important is it really for you to schedule that meeting right now?
How important is it really for you to make that phone call....or answer that phone right now?

What we need to realise is that importance should be the drive behind our actions and decisions. And it will and it does. If something isn't truly that important, you will delay or postpone it.....do something else instead. We are in control of our actions and decisions, BUT you are not in control of the consequences!!!

And the consequences is what you are going to have to live with....and you don't get to decide if they will be good or bad! And you are going to have to carry that cost......

So how important is it to you.......to just start thinking about the importance before you act or make a decision. How important is it?

Look at the situations you are facing in your life right now.......and ask this question......how important is it?
