I had a breakthrough around the idea of time the other day. I was going through a

multiple round workout. It was I guess a four round workout and when I finished the first

round I thought to myself I'm almost done. First round done I'm almost finished and I kind of laughed at myself and the way I

play games with my mind around the idea of time and how quickly time moves. I got through one and before I knew it I would be done with

the other rounds. But here's where it hit me. Before I tell you that, welcome back to the Primal Potential

podcast. I am Elizabeth Benton. This is our consistency 365 series mini

episodes that air between our regular full-length episodes on Mondays and

Saturdays that are intended to help you take a few minutes of your day to

reconnect to your goals and reconnect with what you want most.

Otherwise, it's so easy to get distracted,

to have great intentions, but more days than not

to fail to follow through and execute and make progress towards

your goals.

So here's where my breakthrough around time really hit me.

I told you that I was going through this multiple round workout and just telling

myself, hey, each round goes by really fast before you know it, it's going to be over.

Well, a couple hours later, I was playing in the snow outside with my son Roman.

He's two, he'll be three in the spring, and I reprocessed that whole idea of time as I watched him play. I thought if I'm lucky enough to see him turn 18,

that's the equivalent of six three-year rounds if you will to use that terminology of the workout if I am

lucky enough to see him and have him with me until he's 18.

I've lost a child unexpectedly.

I know that's not guaranteed.
