The Leaps of Life

There are several ways of navigating through life's challenges to get to the endgame. Well, eventually the endgame will be the very same for all of us - death. But before that happens we all have to make a decision about the direction, content and target.

Right now I'm right inbetween my old and my new life which is a very comfortable place to be. I can with pleasure look back at the past half decade and enjoy the achievements and memories as well as dream about the next 5 years with a glass of St-Julien. I don't really have to do anything productive but trying to make sense of the past, present and the future.

Time, in the short-term, is only important to linear people. Time as measured in tick-tock, tick-tock. But if you look at time in the concept of leaps - of huge disruptive jumps - then time becomes unlimited. The key is to find the right space for that time. It's not time spent that should be valued but impact. How do you measure impact? In cold hard cash, baby!
