“Take your time” …

… is a piece of advice frequently given, but not to be taken literally. Obviously, we cannot simply “take” time. But we may decide how to employ the time given to us, especially when we have something great and important to do.

Intuition and inspiration will not come easy when you are rushing from one meeting to another, working off an overflowing agenda and trying to meet all the manifold demands of everyday life. However, once you take your time to lean back and contemplate, inspiration will come to you out of the blue, almost as if by magic.

“Time that we take is time that gives us something in return.” (Ernst Ferstl, teacher and writer)
