I am a firm believer that we are all put on this earth to make a difference. There is a unique set of life experiences that we each have which defines us, and gives us something that only we can share with the world.

But sometimes, rather than sharing our talents and passions, we find ourselves off-course and wasting a lot of time doing nothing. And don’t get me wrong. We all need down time. We all need to relax and recharge. But that’s a completely different thing though to wasting time on things that won’t get you to where you want to go in life.

Recently I came across a video which looks at how much time we have in jellybeans. It is a powerful video which illustrates what time we actually have in our lives after you take out activities such as bathing, eating, preparing food, sleeping and working.

I don’t know about you, but I was certainly unable to watch this video without thinking about what it is that I need to do this day, this week, and this month to get to where I want to go. And I think I will be coming back to this video time and time again when I get off track……
