Four Thousand Weeks, That's All You Have

FOUR THOUSAND WEEKS – the average amount of time a human gets to live on planet earth.

It’s easy to kick off the year with the best intentions ... but not far down the line of 2022 I’m sure most of us already feel like we’re spread too thinly, that our attention is everywhere and nowhere all at the same time.

In our Emotional Intelligence Course, we talk about a mindset tool; The Fleeting Nature of Life and reference one of my favorite authors Mark Manser who wrote the Subtle Art of Not Giving a ‘Bleep’.

The premise of this book & mindset tools is not to say we don’t care, it is deciding to care very deeply about a very select number of things only and letting go of the rest. We can’t afford an emotional investment in every little thing that happens to and for us from the minute we wake up, instead, we’re very mindful around what we gift our precious time to.

Picture those precious 4 thousand weeks as 0.1 carat diamonds in a beautiful big soup spoon & each Sunday night you have to throw one away. Each week is one we can never replace (if we’re lucky enough to have that many to begin with), so ask some of the questions that will be the thieves of your time and your life on a regular basis if you do not.

Let’s make our primary directive to spend our time mindfully in 2022!
