1462 Where Does the Time Go?

How unfair is it when you are wanting to give your family everything only to be left with little time at the end of the day? Where does the time go?

You give all of yourself making sure to keep the routine and structure of day to be productive as a woman, wife, and mother.

You know those moments when you are consumed by what your children are doing throughout their day. You pause just long enough to inhale very slowly hoping to slow down time.

Where does the time go?

How is it that you trying to be the best mother makes you feel more like coming in last place for a contest you didn't even enter?

This mom thing is very complicated the more you immerse yourself. It doesn't seem fair that you have to pick and choose at times.

Your children over your business. Your children over your spouse. Your children over "ME" time. Your children over a clean house. Your children over a better car.

Then all you hear around you is the buzzing of how successful all these other mothers are. So what's your problem?

Why can't you get your act together? Why can't you organize better? Why can't you make decisions better?

Because if you could do all of that right, you wouldn't be wondering about how the day has escaped you.

Where does the time go?

As children, time is in the moment. There is never worry or concern about what is going to happen during tax season. When are you going to schedule vacation this year. 

All they experience is the day in which they are present. Yes, there is some planning in their minds as to what's to come. But their "what's to come" is no further than following that next moment. 

For example: Why do you think children are so surprised when it's the BIG event like vacation? Yesterday is too far away for them to live in reality. 

And the repetitive question.... Are we there yet? They are simply present in the moment. Conscious of the time they see which is what is right in front of them.

Now as they get older and need to plan ahead, it becomes a greater challenge. They are thrown into planning for the future after living the majority of their lives in the moment.

So there you are questioning what you have accomplished for the day? Surely I should have been able to do more.

Where does the time go?

This is where we as adults can learn from children. 

The K.I.S.S. ~ Let tomorrow worry about itself. Be present today.

Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own. ~ Matthew 6:34

There is no reason to beat yourself up because the clock is ticking faster than you think it should. You are just more aware of how the time moves.

Structure your day focusing on the moment. This way the worry will fade a little allowing you to accomplish more, because your mind isn't distracted from the clicking of the second hand on the clock. Construct routines that support the flow of your day. If you know that you have activities in the afternoon to the evening, working out then may be next to impossible. Or you might be overly tired. Workout in the morning instead. Simplify by being present in whatever you do. Take it from the Kids Life Book. Let the distraction appear when you show up in that moment. 

Time is on your side when you don't get flustered in the moment when you feel out of control. 

BONUS: When life happens and you haven't planned accordingly, go with the flow. Strut your flexible feathers!

"Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"
