You’ll Wonder Why You Didn’t Do this Sooner

by Jane Powell on November 5, 2009

“Your appointment is confirmed.”

You set appointments all the time, with doctors, dentists, accountants, contractors and hair salons. More often than not the appointments you set actually take place. Once in a while you have to cancel an appointment, but that’s okay, because you reschedule it and place the new date and time on your calendar.

There’s one person, though, that you might never think to set an appointment with. That person is you!

Why not schedule an appointment with yourself and write it on your calendar? Schedule some time to do something fun with yourself. Make it a definite date.

When the time comes, keep the appointment, just as you would any other. After a few appointments with the all-important you, you’ll wonder why you didn’t do it sooner.

I should’ve done this sooner. I’m a serious scheduler and never schedule time for myself. This was just what I needed to hear and read this morning. Thanks Jane!

Do people have ideas of what they’d do? Last night I skipped yoga and took a walk for an hour, stopped by a new store in my town, and just enjoyed being outdoors in my neighborhood. Caught up with a couple of old friends and made some plans as well. It felt GREAT!

Making the appointment is easy, rescheduling or keeping it is a different story for me.
