Today’s “ONE THING” – The First Sixty Seconds

Good day to you!

Today’s “ONE THING” may seem a little odd to you but I assure you that being intentional about this one little thing will completely change your life.  The one thing that I want you to focus on today (and for the rest of your life) is this: “Be very intentional about how you handle the first sixty seconds of the transitions in your day.”

Again let me remind you of one of my favorite words – “trajectory”.  The way you handle the first sixty seconds of each transition in your day sets the trajectory for the rest of time ahead of you.

For example, the first sixty seconds after you first put your feet on the floor each morning sets the tone for your day; be intentional how you handle it!  The first sixty seconds when you first step into your office or work station is huge.  The first sixty seconds when you greet someone sets the tone for that conversation.  How you handle the first sixty when you arrive home this evening and greet your family is going to set the trajectory for the evening.

You get the picture…just remember, the accumulative affect of your “first sixty seconds” throughout a day (and a lifetime) colors the hours and days of your life in a powerful way and determines the trajectory of your entire life.  One minute can make a huge difference; use each one wisely – especially the first one.

Blessings,
