We Have All The Time In The World….. Or So We Think

We’re told we have all the time in the world….

Remember when you were a kid? It seemed as if you had all the time in the world.

You could have fun after school; no issues or work – apart from that paper route or part-time job babysitting the neighbour. The week-ends were even more fun! If you cleaned your room and did the chores around the house, you had all the time for you to play!

Then you got a little older…and responsibilities began creeping up. That wasn’t as fun…

You had to finish your homework, made sure your kid brother or sister wasn’t getting in trouble – you probably had to babysit him or her at that point as well.

But you still believed that “old folks” were the ones with much less time because of the stories they never stopped talking about of when they were kids – something like in the movies – and you definitely told yourself that “I sure will have made it by the time I get grey hair” and that was a promise!

Then those strange questions started popping up by everyone around you…. “what do you want to do with your life?”…. “which College or University are you going to go to?…. and the ever important: “you better apply yourself to your studies…no one wants to hire a loser”….

But during all of that time, everybody around you is continuously telling you how being young is the best time of your life and that you better not waste it because you’ll open your eyes and BANG! you’re old!

We’re sure that we have all the time in the world….

Then, just as you’re starting to make some sense of it all – and worked hard on your studies – you find yourself in College or University and BAM! Time takes on a whole new meaning! You’ve got study groups to go to… Homework to finalize and have done by a defined date and oh…let’s not forget…you’re dating now… so less time to be alone, (which… all being told isn’t that bad).

But you’re having fun! Parties to go to… all these friends that are inviting you over… decisions about how you’re going to spend your week-ends and free time, wow! You never had it so easy! or do you?…

You’re still getting those questions from everyone around you, what are you going to do with your life? You tell yourself that you’ve got a bunch of great people around you that have succeeded and well, it can’t be that hard, right?

And you can’t stop hearing that little voice in the back of your mind telling you “the way things have been done in the past may not be the same for the future”… But what does that mean?

Nah… It must be rubbish…

We then exchange time for life’s other little pleasures…

That weekly trip to the restaurant, that extra coffee in the morning when you’re at work. Taking the time to go out with friends, because that’s what friends do!

Then you’ve got that two week vacation every year. You need to recharge those batteries you know; work isn’t the easiest with all that stress, overtime, work hours and the deadlines the boss is giving you.

And of course, there’s time that needs to be provided for your love-life…whatever that may be…love of cars…love of playing video games… you know, the good stuff!

Oops! I thought this JOB was going to be more fun?

Then there’s the job…ah yes…the one you had a great interview for and think that even though they’re not paying you as much as you’d think they could, it’ll “get you somewhere” right?

Wasn’t it Mom who said that you needed to “have a stable job if you want to raise a family and provide them with what they need?”. I wonder what she would have to say about how the economy is today after having gone through such a long time during a pandemic?… Many who thought about it finally figured out that JOB also means “Just Over Broke”.

Time is ticking… time to make a change.

Then one day, you’re looking at yourself in the mirror and you’re telling yourself: “there’s gotta be more to it than this right?”…

You’ve read on several websites and “googled” the information as well about how the internet has created several millionaires, (some wrote about a short time of span it took many of them to get there), but that’s gotta be hogwash right?

You’re sure there has to be a way – a right way – to get to that “promised land” so that you can let that job go and truly live the life you dreamed about… If only there was a right way…

The right way is here. Time to use the right tools.

The good news is that you’re at the right place at the right time to get to that perfect place.

Contrary to what many say, you can get to that promised land. It won’t be overnight and  it might not be as easy as what you may have read on the internet, but if you’re willing to put the effort into it, I can show you how it’s possible, what steps you need and more importantly, provide you with the biggest factor for your success: MENTORSHIP.

We’ll talk about that in another blog entry but for now, thanks for reading me!
