Loving Later Life

Are You Living Life or Just Planning it? Some Quick Thoughts as My Plans Took a U-Turn


Listen Later

Are you a planner? Do you schedule everything so you can be organized and proactive, attempting to avoid all possible pitfalls along the way? And if you spend all your time planning, are you missing what is happening in your present moment?

Are you living life or just planning it?

This is an unplanned episode from the couch before I unexpectedly got on another plane headed to the East Coast. When my daughter breaks her foot and asks me to please come help her for a few days, I just go. Without plans and without over-thinking I’m in each moment making it happen.

So many of us seem to be constantly controlling our schedules in advance. I’m wondering if we are also allowing ourselves to enjoy what we’re doing when we’re doing it. As we get older, I think we become more acutely aware of precious moments and the importance of paying attention to them.

I hope you’ll join me on my couch as I talk with you as if you are on the other end of the phone. This time, I’m asking YOU for the take-aways, and what will be your mission?! Please email me at [email protected].
