I was listening to the powerful song Seasons of Love from the Broadway show “Rent”.  There was a time in my life that the thought of 525,948 minutes would have pissed me off, literally. Every day was dreaded.  I viewed life as a chore.  Everything was a disappointment.  I didn’t understand why I was here, but I truly hoped it wasn’t for too long.  That was my truth.

2013 has 525,948 minutes in it.  What will I do with them?  Today that thought actually energizes me.  There are those practical “to do” list items such as growing a successful business, moving near my Mom, expanding our blog, continuing to eat right and exercise.

Then there are those ideas and thoughts that are so powerful and moving that I can barely wait to see them play out.   How many women will be empowered?  How many people will allow me to be their life coach?  Will I continue to be of service to another women who needs recovery?  Will I be a good example to my niece, nephew, and godsons? Will I run another half marathon?  How will my vision continue to unfold? And just when I think I know EXACTLY what I am going to do with those 525,948 minutes, the Universe reminds me that all I have is 1,440 minutes in today.  Just today.  I suspect some pretty amazing things will occur in the 1,440 minutes of today!  They always do.

So I will take Becky’s practical advice from yesterday’s blog, and chunk down my extensive “to do” list into small, specific manageable tasks.  I will bask in the knowledge that these tiny steps are the paving stones that will lead me right up to my big fat dream.  And while I can’t wait to see what the next 525,948 minutes will bring me, I will focus on the 1,440 right in front of me.

One day at a time!
