Our plans are how we design them to be.

Design your day before you start it.

Design your week before you start your day.

Design your month before you start the week.

This gets you to start living life by design.

Put yourself in the center of your design.

I have a pond with a fountain in it. The water is constantly and consistently disturbed. Ripples are always flowing from the center of this distraction in the water. About 20 feet away though, the water is calm. Sometimes it’s so still at night it is like a mirror reflecting the night sky. 

It reminds me of how the tides of life can have these rippling and calming moments. Now, by design, where do we place ourselves? It’s according to what we want at the moment. If we want to be busy, or live fast paced, we place ourselves near the fountain. At times we want peace, we put into plans for moments of peace.

Everything according to your design.

When we design our lives, and things go according to our plans, we live in the moment instead of living for the moment. Every moment is an Ichigo Ichie.
