Time Management Doesn’t Work

I managed my time very well today.

I was busy.

I accomplished not a damned thing.

Time management doesn’t work.

Time is a constant. It cannot be managed.

What can be managed, is you.

Time management is self-management.

Self-management is mind management.

Mind management is practicing active mindfulness.

Mind management is training your mind to plan and delegate. To organize and direct. To control and grow. To resist the urge to be distracted.

Mind management is coaxing your lizard brain to live at the edge of its comfort zone while working towards your fullest potential.

Mind management is power thinking. The practice of recognizing and understanding that something is neutral until we assign it meaning.

We like to say “my body has a mind of its own.” This is not correct. Your body has the exact mind you chose to give it.

What mind do you choose to give your body today?
