Welcome to the Aviel "Thought for the Week".
Each week we'll send you a short email to help you get clear
in your life about your purpose and keep you on track - hope you find
them useful. Feel free to pass them on to anyone you think might get
value & enjoy them.

Is your life full of activity and yet you feel you
are not achieving what you want? It could be that the things
that are important to you have slipped into the background and your
time is being filled by urgent things
rather than important ones.
What is important for you? Time for
yourself, time with family and friends, working on that new project,
writing your novel, building that boat..........???????
How much time are you spending on these
IMPORTANT activities compared with the
URGENT activities - daily chores, reading emails,
answering that enquiry....?
Take some time out to reconnect with what
is important rather than urgent. You'll be amazed at how it improves
everything and be surprised how much you will get done.
