Time is precious. We should really not be quite so careless with it, and yet we all waste it.
“How did it get so late so soon?”
― Dr. Seuss
You probably roll your eyes when you hear people say “make every second count”, “treasure every moment”, “don’t waste your life” – but I’m afraid, few people realise how true these statements are.
I consciously try to do this every day. That doesn’t mean it’s easy, I have to constantly remind myself, despite having had so many examples of how fleeting life is. Is this something you do? Or are you guilty of not fully embracing each day?
The New Year brings with it a certain degree of motivation that perhaps people do not always feel at other points of the year. Given this, I wanted Mummy Fever readers to feel empowered to jump into something new. To make your time count.
“A man who dares to waste one hour of time has not discovered the value of life.”
― Charles Darwin
How about a fancy new watch to inspire you to move forward with whatever challenge you have set yourself?
ADEXE Watch London know a thing about self-expression and empowerment. They distinguish themselves from the massess, by producing watches that have traditional quality and luxury, but with a more contemporary minimalism. If you aren’t interested in what other people are doing/wearing and are more focused on being more non-conformist – you’ll love this brand.
I think there are tons of lovely Adexe watches that all look super stylish and individual, without being over the top.
“You may delay, but time will not.”

I try to take time out for myself at least once!
I do something that helps me to relax – reading, crafting or cooking, at least one of them every day. On a perfect day I do all three.
i try and remember how lucky i am, i have health, family and love x
I get up and try to enjoy the day the best as I can by keeping health and fit.
LIVE in the Moment
Too much BEAUTY passes me by without a SECOND thought ….. 2019 is already bright
I walk my dog everyday and enjoy living so close to the Somerset countryside.
By trying not to worry about things.
Wake up early. Don’t hit the snooze button. If you need an extra 10 minutes, set your alarm later so that you can wake up right away. Getting up early will allow you time for a healthy, wholesome breakfast and to ease into your day.
As I’ve got older I just go with the flow 🙂
Before I go to sleep make a list of 4 things I want to achieve the following day – I get a sense of achievement and feel that I have wasted a day doing nothing!
i am at my best in the morning, i wake up super early and take me time by going for a walk before everyone oin my house wakes up
I try to make as many memories as possible with my family everyday, life is too short
I wake early, therefore making extra time for things that I love to do 🙂
I’m getting better at making time for myself but always happy to share my time to help out too
Live each day as if it were your last is my motto – I have a variety of different hobbies and interests that fill my day in between caring for my sick husband :o)
I suffer from chronic pain and various medical conditions but still try to make the most out of each day! Life is for living 🙂
I try to spend as much quality time with my family as I can
I make as much time for all my friends and family as I can & I make a little time for myself so I can unwind its relaxing after a busy day
This is something I’m trying to learn at the moment
I wake up really early and go to work so that I can home earlier and enjoy time with my husband and our pug. Luckily my work schedule is flexible so I can do this. I think the most important thing in life is family and try to live the day like there is no tomorrow.
I try to spend as much time as possible with close family
Like to take at least 20 mins out for myself
In the morning I write a list of things I want to achieve for the day
I am trying to get back into mindfulness and the law of attraction to help me really get the best out of my day!
spend as much time as i can with family they are the ones that matter to me most
Time is the one thing that you can never regain, so i try to take a little `me` time faily even if its only 20 mins of quiet time to myself. My days tend to be pretty hectic and filled to the brim for the best part so anytime to myself is a bonus.
Spending time with my hubby and dog Ozzie
I try to think about each member of my family every day!
I always make sure I go out for a walk and get some fresh air no matter what the weather. Feel better for it and motivates me to keep fit for my Fitbit challenges
I get myself outside for a nice walk each day and make sure I make time to meditate twice a day.
I try to plan fun things in advance so that we don’t waste time trying to decide what to do
I always wake up early, take a relaxing bath before facing the pressures of the day
I make sure i spend time with the family and try not to worry about things!
I like to have a nice realxing bath at the end of the day – just some me time
I go for a daily walk and try not to worry about the small things
