Day 39 - Two Little Words - Your Gift

Tick, tock...

As we embrace yet another sunrise, sunset, and the days and nights in between, ask yourself...

​"What would I do if someone gave me $10,000 a day every single day... 

              ​...for the rest of my life?"

How would you spend it? 


Better yet, what would you do if someone gave you even more money... say, perhaps $50,000 a day for the rest of your life? 

Would that sizable gift change how you spend your everyday life? 

Let’s take it one step further...

To what would you pay your attention if someone gave you something even more valuable?

What if you were given $86,400... and you could always receive the exact same amount - $86,400 (every single day)... with one simple caveat:

...you have to spend all of the funds in the account by the end of the day... yet you will also have the same $86,400 replenished again and again on each successive day... for the rest of your life?

In other words...

What if you absolutely had to spend a daily gift of $86,400 every... single... day - and you could spend it any way you desired, albeit with two very specific limitations:

1. You simply cannot know when the gift of funds will end; and
2. You have to spend all of the funds by the end of the day, every day (no savings).

Would you spend the gift carefully?

Frivolously? Wisely? Judiciously?

Generously? Miserly? Gratefully? Hatefully? Hopefully?

Would you give it away freely and untroubled, despite knowing that the gift would someday stop? 

Beginning today, I challenge you to accept and understand one powerful fact:

​Your Life, in and of itself, is a gift. ​

You did absolutely nothing to earn it. ​

Your great gift of life is exactly 86,400 seconds short (or long, depending on your perspective) every… single… day. 
 
These gifted seconds may be yours tomorrow.  
 
On the other hand, this may be the last time you and I will ever read such ridiculously Truthful words.
 
Here’s the Deal:
- - - - - - - - - - - -
By paying attention to the gift of life, we become immediately wealthy. 
- - - - - - - - - - - -
 
Oh... and we (you and I) are the ones who decide/choose what’s important to us.

Your mission for today (or tomorrow, or sometime soon)...       

1. Look back at how you have spent your 86,400 seconds this past week.
2. Objectively review your perspective. How will you spend the next 86,400 seconds?
3. Ask yourself, “Do I have the proper perspective? Am I wealthy with all of this time?” 
4. Answer your self with an objective review of your perspective.
