Life is short, and you do not have much time to gladden the hearts of others;
So be swift to be love & make haste to be kind.

Here’s Looking at you, Kid 🙂

Where are you on the timeline … (1) Others to Self (10)?

Do you tend to say yes when asked for help?
Do you take time to reflect on your values?
Do you respect other’s time by doing what you can to save them time? “A minute saved is a minute earned.”
Where is your family, friends, neighbors on the timeline?
Do you prioritize your extra time doing things for others, yourself or your job?
Do you choose pleasure over principal?
Do you monitor your screen time and give equitable time to exercise?
Is what you put into your body helpful or selfish?
- Drinking that coke, eating that treat
- Continuing to smoke or use e-cigarettes which is just as bad.
