Why is Time Important?

I was recently asked this question and here is my answer:

If you feel time is important then time is important.

Each of us creates our own reality.

It can, nevertheless, be helpful to reflect on what exactly time is “for you“?

Most people would agree that it can be:

gained
saved
kept
invested
budgeted
spared
spent
lost
taken
wasted
needed
given

And yet never touched? Never seen? So, what is it?

How we decide to see time is one of the biggest decisions of our lives because it dictates so much else.

What Might be Possible If We Believed It Were Possible?

Questions have a strange power. They can release us from what we believe to be true by offering us glimpses of something different. Indeed, there are times in that brief moment after a question is asked when it feels like anything is possible.

Questions have certainly given me the freedom and permission to pursue my passions and live a life I would never have thought possible. That is why I am a big advocate of Nurturing Curiosity at all ages.

If you are a leader, you will no doubt already know that continually nurturing curiosity in leadership is absolutely key. Indeed, that is why I started the Bigger Questions Project around one key question: How might we empower more people to explore and embrace bigger questions?

If you are a leader, you will no doubt already know that continually nurturing curiosity in leadership is absolutely key. In many ways, leadership begins with self-leadership, which is in turn built on a deep sense of curiosity about who you are as a person and as a leader.
