Monday Morning Motivation – Moment
Sharing Resources to Help You Grow Personally, Professionally & Financially
Sometimes it helps to get a little dose of encouragement—along with a good cup of coffee!—to start the day.
Hopefully the message below will help you get off to a good start for the week. Please feel free to forward the newsletter on to others that you think would benefit from the content.
Moment
One of the most eye-opening ways to grasp just how quickly time flies is to start a family. One day, you’re carefully cradling a tiny, fragile newborn in your arms—completely dependent on you for everything. Then, in what feels like a blink, that same child is standing taller than you, raiding the fridge like a professional, and plotting their own path to independence.
Of course, this transformation doesn’t actually happen in an instant—it takes years. But those years? They’re made up of thousands of fleeting moments. Moments that slip through our fingers before we even realize they’re gone. Moments we sometimes wish we could rewind and experience all over again.
But here’s the thing—we don’t get a rewind button. What we do get is now.
The present moment is ours for the taking, but only if we choose to embrace it. Only if we pause, breathe, and fully immerse ourselves in the now rather than constantly looking ahead or dwelling on what’s already passed.
That brings us to this week’s question:
- Are you taking the time to enjoy the moment?
Thank you for sharing a bit of your Monday morning with me. Wishing you a week filled with moments worth remembering.
Have a great week!
