Timed out
A couple of days back I was just having a conversation with a friend of mine and I said
"You know I am planning to exercise a bit. I know I am lucky enough not to put on any weight but I think a bit of exercise will surely do me some good. Maybe jogging in the morning. But I dont know if I will get the time. "
I was just pondering on that sentence of mine and suddenly I felt as if I was hit by a meteor. That sentence had the most inconsistent thoughts ever.
How can a person tell he doesnt have the time to do something. I am sure all of you have heard a number of times that we should never give "no time" to do something as a reason. But it sometimes takes 'meteors' and 'her' to actually realise it.
Time, I have learnt is the only thing we actually have control on. And the scarcity of time should never be given as a reason for anything. You might not be able to do something just because you have not planned your activities. That and laziness are the main reasons for missing out on many activities and never is it about less time available. A focused and planned approach towards life is the answer.
So I have decided that I will never give "no time" as the reason for anything.
Hmm...now that I have finished with my pep talk, Am I going to go jogging everyday???

Right through your post i was expecting that somewhere you will mention the word 'priority'. But, you comfortably skipped talking about it, where you were talking about giving "no time" as a reason.
Well, i believe laziness is definitely a reason and some of us (definitely me) used "no time" as a cover up story for our lazy ass. But, i have graduated from just being a student (dreamer) to a professional (doer), and present day demands that i make a choice between things i can pursue at the same time. We call this prioritizing. If jogging does not feature in the top of the list coz there are more immediate important things we can do at the same time - its not that we have "no time", its just that we have "no time for this"...
Priority my friend can leave you with "no time" for many things... But, again how u prioritize (with you heart or with your brain) is again point to ponder on...
i would love to listen the conversation of ur brain and ur heart about this someday...
