Living on 24 Hours a Day

The problem of staying focused isn’t a new one. After all, there was a book written about it in the 1900s, but our current technology has exasperated this problem to astronomical levels.

While there is something to be said focusing on a task, the bigger challenge (for me, anyway) has been to stay focused on a path.

Rather than give things their proper time and focus, dare I say discipline, it’s one skip along a path before jumping to another. This has resulted in countless abandonned proejcts and half-hearted attempts at numerous avenues.

Although it pays no dividends to stick with something you absolutely hate and have no desire to pursue—anything worth doing must be given a fair chance. There are no promised outcomes, but there can be no progress.

I think the bigger fear is knowing there is only twenty-four hours in a day and considering most lives last approximately four thousand weeks, you want to enjoy as much of it as possible. In other words, the limitation is time.

To be able to enjoy life is one thing. To be able to experience what it has to offer? That comes at learning how to live each day and understanding in our limited time, we can have a full experience of a few things… or a shallow experience of many.
