"How do you mark time?"

Click here to listen to Dr. Joey tell his story!

How do you keep up with which day of the week it is? I mean, other than the calendar or the newspaper or the radio or TV?

I have a friend who marks time by which day is trash day. He knows that on a certain day of the week the first thing he does when he gets up is wheel the trash can to the curb.

I did an interview on a radio station, talking about making a life, not just a living, and the announcer said, “Dr. Joey, it seems like most of us just live for the weekend, but you live everyday like it’s the weekend. How do you do that?” A lot of us must keep up with which day of the week it is by counting down to the weekend.

One of the secrets to listening to life and making a life, not just a living has to do with how you invest your time. Do you invest it in trash day activities? Do you squander five days a week just to get to the weekend?

Today, ask God to coach you about how to invest your time. And to make you aware of how rich the dividends are for you when you invest yourself deeply in living every moment of every day as you listen to life and make a life.
