Is your head sometimes spinning from the demands of your daily schedule? Time slips away from all of us, causing the days to drag on and the years to fly by. This session explains how forward thinking—with your “future self” in mind—can save you wasted time and boost your overall satisfaction in life. The benefits are apparent when we compare modern life to the ways of our ancestors. Simple acts of socializing, home cooking, and correspondence deserve schedule time too. Once you realize these missing pieces in your life, you can find balance as often as you need it.

I get to decide what to do with my time and it worth celebration!
I will give myself some time for meditation and try to do anything enjoyable and useful at the same time,

Time
I like this because I’m always making plans I don’t want to attend. So now I will always take the time to acknowledge how I feel before making that plan.

Day One back on Grind
I need to start to relax and feel better about myself. I have; for the last month and a half been so caught up in other people’s business and lives that I’ve neglected my own. I am getting back into Meditation each morning. Waking up at 7 am and getting myself situated and set up for the day by starting out relaxing and making sure I do breathing exercises each day as well.

I learned that this is something I already do that is effective. I plan on using it more.

i learned that if you plan something ahead it is way easier than planning the same thing a day before.

I felt connected
I learned that everyone goes through similar things in life and to pause and really think about how I plan things in my life.

Understood
I understood that it doesn’t take a miracle to have a calm way of life, you just need to think forward, not years forward, just weeks, days and even just a couple of hours in order to allow your future self calmness and reassurance.

Aching to be busy
I already schedule my meditation time each day, including Aura in my pill reminder app, Round (highly recommended app), having been out of work for so long, I've gotten pretty lazy overall, and now, facing a busier schedule with real work to do, I'm finding myself very anxious each day...the need to perform and accomplish tasks again is pretty daunting to me now...what’s that saying? Be careful what you wish for?

I’m going to schedule relaxation time each day to try to help with anxiety.
I learned that it’s effective to try meditation not when I’m already feeling anxious but also when I’m more calm.

Dear future self
I know I need to take care of you because there are always demands being placed on you. Scheduling calmness during our day is the first step to creating balance.

Schedule my time more effectively
I am crazy busy. I even work on Saturdays and sometimes bring it home on Sundays. I should think of my future self and try to schedule less. Enjoy more time with my family. My life tends to revolve around my business.
