Make an Appointment with Yourself!

I was recently trying to schedule a time to Skype with a friend.  My friend indicated that he had several appointments.  So we scheduled our time around them.

While talking to my friend, he mentioned, that he had an appointment with himself.  I have never heard of anyone making an appointment with them self before.  He explained that he would make the appointment and then show up at his favorite coffee bar and work on a project that was important to him.  What a great idea!

So often we believe that it is selfish to indulge ourselves in projects that we really want to do.  Possibly that belief comes from when we were small children and we were taught that we could do what we really wanted to do (play) when all of our work was done.  We then grow up to be adults who quickly learn that all of the work is never done.  Which means we never get to play!

Now is a great time to revisit the belief that you can only do something enjoyable, and that you are passionate about, once all your work is complete.  How about looking ahead on the calendar and scheduling some important appointments with yourself?

Sounds like a wonderful idea!

With Love & Light~
