Add Buffers to Your Life
Life happens fast. We are often rushing here and there, always looking ahead to the next thing on our schedule or agenda, filling up our time and trying to get the most out of it.
Sometimes though, BLAM, you get hit with the unexpected:
The gas tank hits empty and if you stop to refill you’ll be late.
You spent your whole paycheck and now a repair or medical cost came up.
You left on time, but there was more traffic that you planned on and you’ll miss the meeting.
There are many ways to add buffer to your life, but one of the best ways from a security perspective is TIME. Add time buffers to your life – leave a few minutes early, don’t schedule meetings back to back, plan on errands taking longer than anticipated.
If you give yourself the gift of time buffers you not only lower your stress, but allow yourself to adjust and reorient to the unexpected challenges life brings.
You give yourself time to react – meaning you can be better prepared, more relaxed, and in better control of your life.
Add buffers to your life!
