There's Still Time

Time is one of the mysteries of the universe. You never know whether you have tons of it or you’ve just run out of time. Either way, the one thing that’s clear is that if you are reading his then you have time. It does not matter whether you are 24, 44 or 74, the bottom line is that of you have time. The strange thing I’ve found is how people say they don’t have time.

Maybe you are stuck working in a fulltime job you do not like, or you have some other obligations that have you tied down, you may think you simply do not have time to do anything else. You may be an aspiring real estate agent, trying to sell homes on the side as you keep up with your regular job or try to raise your kids and you are wondering whether this message is for you. I cannot stress enough, yes, this message is for you and you have time.

Take a moment to think about your life. How far you have come and how far you have to go. You know the funny thing about life is that it is long. And I mean really long. 100 years ago people lived to be 50 and that was it. That’s why when they hit 25, they knew half their life was over. Today, if you are 25, you are barely through with a quarter of your life. And if you are 25 today, chances are that technological advances will keep you alive till you are well over 100 years.

If you think about it this way, can you see how you have time? That you can literally drop all you are doing and start over and still be able to be a success. Think of Sam Walton who started Walmart when he was 44 years. Can you see how much he accomplished yet he was at that age? Where is Walmart today? It’s the largest supermarket chain in the world.

How about Ray Crock of MacDonald’s, and Henry Ford of the Ford Motor Company, both got into business when they were well past their 40s. And this was way back when technology was still in its infancy.

Today, with technology advancing at such a rapid rate and the proliferation of the Internet, you have tools to do so much more than these guys did. You can build an app that goes to the top of the app store and makes you an overnight millionaire. You can start a YouTube channel that catapults you to stardom. You can decide to learn new skills and change your career.

You can meet new people and make new connections that send you on a completely different trajectory than you are right now. The fact that you are alive today is an exciting thing. What took people months or even years to do in the past, such as writing and publishing a book, today can be accomplished in a matter of days or even hours.

Knowing you have time is about being optimistic about life. It’s knowing that even though the worst could happen tomorrow, you are hoping for the best. It is knowing your best life still awaits you and is achievable. So, stop looking at your watch and fretting over how much time you have lost. Instead look towards the future with optimistic eyes and see all the possibilities that await you.
