Time Management Tips - 3 Secrets To Achieve Personal Power Through Strong Time

Time management tips can lead you into the remarkable realm of timelessness. Would you like to find time every day to emerge from your workday corridors and recharge your energy? To enter this sacred space in your mind, learn how to enter the realm of strong time.

Living in strong time requires that you set down the daily demands to walk on unfamiliar ground. Because time's promise can be tapped through opening to your unexplored potential, I call these tips The 3 Secrets of Creating Strong Time.

The 3 Secrets of Creating Strong Time

1. Create a vivid image of what your best time feels like, and give it a name meaningful to you.

Author and philosopher Mircea Eliade did just this in his landmark book, The Sacred and the Profane. He categorized human experience as falling into both sacred time and profane time. And he encouraged readers to transform their lives by embracing sacred time.

He created another useful name for sacred time; he called it "strong time". Eliade describes strong time as more "real" than profane time. Profane time is linear and geared to practical problem solving. Time spent managing logistics can't provide the experience of depth offered through strong time.

Anyone can partake in strong time. To identify its role in your life, ask yourself these three questions:

* What encounters and moments of solitude expand your heart?
* When do you feel both deeply rooted and free to explore?
* When do you embrace solitude yet feel deeply connected with others?

Those are your strong times.

Every time you fully immerse yourself in the moment, you provide yourself with an opportunity to connect with strong time - the most profound sensation of renewal and integration.

2. Identify what activities bring you strong time.

Strong time is not about duration but about depth. Use these valuable nuggets of time to make you strong in the following ways:

* Focusing within to release old tensions.
* Tapping your creativity by broadening your perspective
* Appreciating yourself and others, simply for being.

Again, draw upon your personal experiences to enhance the relevance of strong time to you. Although some restore themselves through deep quietude and introspection, you may personally access your timeless "zone" while swimming, running, performing music, creating art or during moments of profound, wordless connection with others.

3. Schedule strong time into your life.

Engaging in a personal tradition or ritual is a time-honored method for inviting strong time into your life. These can be rituals that grow out of spiritual traditions, such as meditation, or family rituals. Even the moment you stop to hear the wind moving through the trees can expand your day.

Remember, the length of time is not as important as its regularity.

Resolve to open new doors in your mind to view the limitless expanses. You can channel your power using time management on a day in, day out basis, and also treat yourself to strong time.

In fact, ask yourself right now: how can you schedule strong time today to replenish your strength and rejuvenate your outlook?
