“Live your life by a compass, not a clock.”
Stephen R. Covey
What sets our day, our clock or our compass? It’s funny when you think about it, the world was discovered not with a clock, but a compass. But nowadays time is everything that we care about. We wear a watch, we schedule our days to the down to the last minute. How often do we check to make sure that we are going in the right direction?
What if instead of a watch we wore a compass on our wrist to check and see if we were moving in the right direction? I don’t know about you but staying on time seems to take priority in life over direction at times. We focus on the importance of time instead of focusing on where we are going.
The bottom line is this. You need both a compass and a watch. But it needs to be in that order. If you put a clock ahead of of the compass you’ll make great time, but you won’t know where you are going….
