Question: WHAT LIMITS WOULD GIVE YOU LIFE?

Transcript of Video:

For some of you probably what most gets in the way of your life is this: being requested to be all over the place at one time without there being any boundaries on your life. How do you live within the constraints of time? The old monastic wisdom is: freedom is found in the context of limitation. How can you limit your access to things and others’ access to you? Otherwise time is a tyranny and not a blessed thing.

Blessings on our journey to re-order time in our lives,
