12 Laws of Life #12

[vajramukti]

12. IT’S NEVER TOO LATE TO CHANGE.
Everyone alive gets the same amount of time. 1440 minutes a day. 168 hours in each week. As long as you live. The only difference is in how you spend those hours. You decide how to spend your time and you make that choice each minute.
You can begin to turn your life around in a second.
The only thing you need to do is decide to make it better. You can start to change immediately, beginning with a simple act and letting the acts pile up on each other, creating the change almost effortlessly.
You know the scriptural quote, “By their deeds you shall know them?” It was talking about us. It doesn’t really matter much what we think or what we intend, until the thought is expressed as action.
The quality of our lives comes from what we actually do.
Experience comes in moments - and the moments will keep coming for you until they finally stop. Each moment is a gift, and the chance to make your life different comes to you during each one of them.
Each of these “Facts” boils down to a single principle.
Decide
You can decide how your life will go during any moment you choose. This may be that moment.

Well done I love, the law have used the law, and will continue to use the law, as long as I live, well put.

Been along time Vaj, how are you? Miss your posts. going to try and keep in better contact here. Maybe I can come up with some new inspiration, as it has been a long time since I let the juices flow. Have started back on the path to enlightenment. My kids have inspired me.

Love and light

Most excellent law. Being mindful is a result of the benefits of meditation. By living in the moment we find the "time" for everything desired.

A Stairway to Heaven one step at a time.

The power of right NOW. Very important concept to grasp and realize. This is your MOMENT....this moment is your eternity....the power to change lies in this moment. By focusing and being thankful for what "is" at this moment we can do amazing things and thereby attract amazing things to us.
As always, it lies within ... and what lies within is present in the moment.

"The journey of a thousand miles begins with the first step." Lao Tzu - We all know this quote. Do not focus on the thousand miles or you will never get there. You will defeat yourself by the exasperation from what "lies ahead". The mere thought will exhaust you. If you focus on each step in each moment...(one step at a time) ... you will eventually sojourn that seemingly impossible distance - because you focused on the moment not the future outcome.

It works wonders.

Anything is possible.

Change is a choice that lies in the now.
