Looking back on all of my writings throughout the years, I don't believe that I have ever written on this subject. It's like I've been blind to a part of everyones life, that really needs to be reiterated over and over again. The subject is "You, or ME Time".
What do I mean by "Me Time"? That is the time before everyone else in the house wakes up and you are all by yourself. In my home, which now consists of around 7 people, it is something that I cherish. Once everyone in the house wakes up, it is nonstop pandemonium until 8:30pm. That's when I shut everyone down and there is silence.
Between the time that all are awake and all are sleeping can be the most draining part of each day. You need a time to recharge your batteries and energize your soul. That is "Me Time".
Here are some suggestions on how to really get the most out of that special time totally devoted to you.
1. Exercise
2. Spiritualize
3. Socialize
4. Visualize
For me, I try and incorporate all 4 of these treats into an hour and a half each morning. I start off with some vigorous riding or running. As I am out on the road course or track I am speaking with the Lord. I generally am asking for guidance and mercy.
As I wind down my morning I stop by a local watering hole to see who is in the mood to socialize. Whether it be the counterhelp or the crazy people who, like me, are out looking for strangers to speak with, it is all part of the energizing of my soul.
Finally, I spend a bit of time visualizing where I would like the day to go or maybe a project that I am working on.
If you spend a bit of time on yourself, each and every morning, then you will find that all else goes pretty well. You have the energy to take on the day unlike those folks who just jump out of bed and hope to get it done all on their own.
