Define it: Quality vs Quanity?
"I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel." - Maya Angelou
What kind of time are you spending? Quantity or Quality?
We all share a common interest of life transitions, gatherings amongst friends and family, networking amongst colleagues, joint ventures and/or individual excursions but what does it all mean? If the event or circumstance is bound by living in the moment, active participation and being part of the process than quality time is what is defined. If, on the other hand, you are physically present at the events, meetings and/or activities yet your mind is shifting to previous unrelated moments in time, your body is present but your spirit is floating elsewhere. quantity is where you stand.
We tend to think if we come home from work and are in the same room with our loved ones but are wrapped up in a television show, checking emails or on the telephone that we are attentive and spending quality time. A good deciding factor is if someone asks you a question and you either don't hear them, walk into another room removing yourself from being disturbed or get easily frustrated at the mere sound of their voice. If this describes you, you may not be living in the moment. Your physical being is present but your mind and spirit are elsewhere. If this is so, take time out to do a shift of your mindset.
Quality is more important than quantity. It's the quality that others will remember - precious moments, memories and life events.
Quantity is ineffective (changes like the wind ) and may soon be forgot, if quality is not paired along with it.
