Time is Fleeting, But Life Awaits…Live Intensely For You to Compete Against Time And Be The Winner....
Hi dear Steemians, how are you all? I hope you all are well of course!
In this post I would like to share about two the most valuable coins I could find on my journey, these coins are:
1 - Time
2 - Life
I've always been a person who had in mind power if the winner against time.
I started my journey from a very young age and I always wanted to do everything intensely so that by the time I was 30 or 35 years old, my financial life would be solved according to the parameters I established for myself.
But I'd like to make a note of it all: I've never done or accomplished anything to show or compete with anyone. I have always undertaken to achieve my goals to compete with myself.
I never bothered to show or prove anything to anyone. I have always wanted to prove to myself that I was able to achieve my goals as in a race against time because it makes us have to live intensely and this I can guarantee for you that is wonderful.
The more intensely you live, the younger you will feel and the more stories you will have to tell and share with the world if you will.
What were you doing just before opening your browser and coming to Steemit to read this blog post? What were you doing an hour before? What were you doing the day before? What about the past year? Never mind the past, what are you going to do after you are finished reading this?
Time is fleeting. With all its deceptions and tricks, time is a quantifiable entity that swirls around creation in ways that are confusing, but always foreseeable. It was some time ago that I heard a really moving story which I am going to share with you today.
In the year 1977, there was an old man who had been walking with his grandson for some time in the streets. As they were going down a sidewalk, an approaching cart lost its balance and fell on the boy with its enormous weight. In an act of bravery that was instinctive, the old man who had a hard time carrying a 5-kilogram bag suddenly managed to lift up a few hundred-pound cart and save his grandson.
After that incident, claws of depression found their way to the heart of the old man. For then, he had seen but a glimpse of his real potential and what he could have done with the live that was given to him.
Time is fleeting. Do not stand idly by as months and years of your life go to waste as you wait for an opportunity to go after the things you want. That perfect and fictitious opportunity is never going to present itself. You are the one who must create that opportunity.
Ask the important questions. Think about the meaning of your life and the goals that you want to achieve. Think about the reasons that make you grateful of your existence. Think of all the things that you could do with this blessing; the events you can have an impact on, and the lives that you can change.
Dream. Think. Move. Fight.
What matters the most is how these people with extraordinary dreams decide to use their time. What matters is how these people decide to fight off ordinariness in a world that is moving towards it. What matters is how these people fight to the last drop of their blood to reach what they deserve.
When you have dreams, that is in itself proof that god has already given you the capability and competence to go after those dreams and realize them. It is going to be difficult and hard. It is going to be challenging and exhausting. It is going to be wearisome and overwhelming. But trust me, when you grow old and pale, you will not, for a single second, regret the trial of the road.
It doesn’t matter how old you are. So long as there is life in your veins, and so long as you can breathe, you are capable of doing great things that are unimaginable to those who have decided to be ordinary. Important Note I have been working very hard on this blog since the beginning. I have a very busy life but I am giving my best and believe me I have shared experiences that I have been coaching thousands of people and I know that the change of the Mindset should be daily. I am already grateful to see you giving upvotes to each other and you can see this with the fact that many already have 8, 9, 10 upvotes. But I'm sure that with the effort of all of us we will see a community with, 40, 50, 80 upvotes and for that everyone should get engaged so we can make it come true. I believe and we can! Resteem... ***Remember Community: Please, if you commented and upvote on a new post I did, please always go back to the previous one because if someone in the community commented lastly because of time zone differences it will be without your upvote and that would not be fair. You all know the goal! We can reach: 50+ Upvotes each others! IMPORTANT!!! I am here making a list of all of you who have helped build this community by voting for each other who write meaningful comments and soon I will respond to everyone with comment and thank you all because I can already see this spirit being built in this Positive Mindset community and help between all of you. You will receive my upvote in all material and brief comments I will do this in all the posts I am following very closely and I can see what the people who are generous and contribute to this legacy that I am trying to build with all of you can become reality in a short time.
Time is fleeting. Decide now. Are you the person who is going to use this precious entity to realize your dreams or are you going to live out the rest of your days in regret, waiting to die a remorseful death?
A Big HUG!!!!
I'm reading all the meaningful comments from the posts.
First of all, I would like to thank all of you, who are the most active and proactive in this community, showing your generosity and always with meaningful comments. From now on I will always make a list of these incredible people who have helped to expand our goal of growing ever more.
And if you are not on this list, please, after making your comment, write in that comment: Include my profile in the list, because I do or want to be part of all this with all of you!
But I ask that if you are new around here you read many of the previous posts because they make it clear that we are building a community with respect among all, generosity and this blog is for those who really want to start moving their Mindset to positive and moreover be part of the growth of all of us who contribute to this blog. Please do not ask to include you in the list if you are just wanting votes or speculating because we want here people genuinely attuned to growth and good attitudes and as I have always said with Respect as the basis of all, generosity and positivity!
Remember the rules. First leave your comment meaningful and then leave your message that you want to be included in this comment. Everyone is welcome and I hope this list grows exponentially because this will be a reflection of everyone's growth. I really do not want to be able to update the list of so many people that can be included in it. Let's go together towards the 50+ upvotes to recognize the efforts of those who dedicate their time so that we can become stronger and leave a legacy of growth in our lives and in the lives of others!
A BIG HUG!

Hi there! I really appreciate the post, not only the obvious time and energy put into it but its' actual purpose. I'm new to Steemit so still figuring out everything but just wanted to let you know you've VERY MUCH earned the upvote and follow. looking forward to creeping on your account for other posts like this! it gives me an idea of how I should be formatting mine as I'm trying to do the same thing!
"Include my profile in the list, because I do or want to be part of all this with all of you!"
Thank you so...! Included! Regards
pls follow back, jst followed you. Am new here n i love your posts.
Appreciate it much. Posting about ‘how to beat the Sunday scaries’ tomorrow :-)
thanks for choosing me
Solo hay que tener diciplina y fuerza de voluntad... si no tienes la voluntad para sentirte mejor.. deberiamos encontrar amistades que quieran disfrutar un estilo de vida igual que el que queremos nosotros.. y asio compartir gustos para vivir una vida mas saludable y feliz.
For a while I was offline but coming on today and seeing your post.... I just had to read because I know I'll definitely learn something.
Thanks so much. Indeed, if we don't discipline ourselves and use our youthful strength wisely, old age becomes difficult and full of regrets. I really hope and pray youths take note and use their time and resources wisely and capture opportunities as they present themselves.
Well-done sir. Keep up the good work.
Thank you for your kind words!
You are welcome sir.
Keep up the good work.

hey check me out :=)
Please remove me from this list. While I am grateful for the mentions, your excessive posting is becoming somewhat spam like.
Posted using Partiko Android
Done! Excuse me, but I just don't understand what you mean by excessive posting. This is my hard work even with my busy life I just give my best always and his concept of comparing with spam is wrong. But alright, every person with his head and his judgment even if wrong! I wish you the best!
Please forgive me, I don't mean to offend you. You listed names in a footer of some sort meaning that every time you post an article, they get a 'mention'.
Every time I am mentioned, I get a notification. You have mentioned me 8 times in the last two days. Many of them were with the space of the last 12 hours.
Please understand my frustration here.
Once again, I mean no offense.
Your articles are of excellent quality, and add value to the block-chain as intended, so I don't mean spam in the sense of poor quality at all but the frequency in which I was getting mentions was a little overwhelming for me.
It's not my intention to create enemies here on the block-chain and I know that your intentions were good, so I hope that we can still be friends.
Keep on creating great content. I hope that this clears up any misunderstanding.

No problem my friend, I understand is that words when written may sound different from when spoken and this often creates misunderstandings. But I was not offended by your words, don't worry and know that you have my respect as I respect all the people who contribute to make this community a respectful, generous. Thank you for your words and as I said above I wish the best for you and you will always be welcome! Regards @chbartist
Yes! Thank you. I was worried. I don't want enemies here. Keep on posting great content.

Me too. No worries!
Most non violent way to end conflict, I’m impressed 🤷🏽♂️😁.

To some degree I understand and I agree with @shaidon
You're creating huge amount of content @chbartist and it's really kind of hard to follow. Didnt you consider slowing down and posting no more than 1 time a day?
Yours
Piotr
@crypto.piotr, I respect your point of view but I have a very busy life. I command 3 companies and I still have my artistic career in my country. My schedule is not regular and I have to take advantage of a few days that I am free of appointments from this very busy schedule and do the posts. For me it is impossible to schedule a post every 10 or 12 hours or whatever. I have to write when I can and I have given my best to the community sharing experiences that I have lived and am living. It is rare that I have the time of day to post. I only have one night since I work 16 to 18 hours a day. With all respect @chbartist
Thank you for your kind reply @chbartist
Personally I found your content very interesting. I hope you didn't mind that my opinion doesnt go along with yours. You're very popular as well so you definetly know what's best for you.
I only spoke up as one of your followers. Sometimes amount of content you create is more than one can read. Perhaps Im just a slow reader :) Anyway please don't mind me and continue great work. I will continue supporting you as I value your work a lot.
Is any of those 3 companies related to crypto or blockchain by any chance? Im dying to know :)
ps.
you're very responsive which is absolutely great and steemit community surely will benefit by having you here.
if you would ever like to keep in touch and support each other closer, then drop me a message promib.pl@gmail.com.
This will allow us to communicate easier.
No pressure of course,
Cheers, Piotr
Hi @crypto.piotr, about your comment, no worries, I didn't feel offended for any moment and I could not even feel it because when people have respectful dialogs this can't offend them. And that's exactly the point here, you write very kindly too and I really appreciate it and a lot of people don't understand the difference of dialog and attack talking disrespectfully and this persons I ignore or send flowers LOL. I'm giving my best here and nothing better than our conscience be at peace. About my technology company, LOL. No! the company is not related to blockchain or cryptography my company development e-commerce , softwares, apps, digital marketing, satellite transmission, web television and developments related to telecommunications in general.
You are not a slow reader like I said, my life is very busy and you will rarely see me make so many articles in one day but on this particular day I had more time to devote to my blog.
If you want to talk to me, feel free. It's only you send me a message through steemchat search me over there. I can't always respond at the same time but I will certainly respond if you write to me.
Regards and always wishing the best to you and to all!
I have so say here but I would just like to mention that I've been reading your posts very carefully and they are very meaningful and deep. I enjoy reading them!kee up the good work and always value content more than quick money! Take care stay safe :-)
I can only say if i have one hour to live, what will i do with it?
That will be a compass to find my route in life
Hi, I like what you posted. I see time as just a concept and see it as malleable with our perception of it. Life is the only coin here and now in this manifestation in this moment. So I feel life is the only and most valuable "coin" . It is great to find and read such great Bloggers as you and other. Very grateful, Keep going, everything is good :)
Time is not important...only love is important; and sharing this great post is a true expression of kindness. l0V3 4LL, s3RV3 4LL.
I’d have to quit Steemit.
I mean, the irony of all this great advice is that we are getting at it from a source that has somehow turned us into potato couches (I know some people are more mobile than others, can steem from cell phones, work places, etc; not all of us have the same options).
For those of us who have been forced by circumstances to turn Steemit into a source of income, a livelihood, it is very difficult, especially with this crypto debacle, to keep growing in Steemit without having to sacrifice other things in the real world.
I am struggling to find balance, to take care of family and friends, while at the same time doing this, which I love.
If Steemit were more profitable now, it would be easier to combine virtual and real world, but in order for whatever we do here to be financially rewarding we have to devote a huge amount of time to interaction, reading, voting, commenting, and researching.
I’m sure there may be more practical and efficient ways to do this. I have not found it yet.
In any case, the advice is great, but I think that were we to realize our plans the way they are conceived, most like that would imply sacrificing other things or people.
It’s a tricky catch 22.
Brom steem is not something we can expect immediate return instead we have to invest time to get return out of it and you can't depend on it for survival. You need to do some other thing for basic necessities.

Of course, I do. And now, more than ever, I understand how unstable this whole business is, but the irony is that in order for you to aspire to grow here you'd need to devote so much time it leaves little less for a regular occupation.
I understand what you mean my friend. But life shows us paths every minute and we have to make a decision. I can honestly tell you from my experience that there is not a way where we can have everything at the same time. There will always be seasons that we have to devote more time to something that is shown to us. I did this in all the seasons of my life because this is the only way I found today to be free and do whatever I want with my time and that is what I wish for all of you. But as the old saying goes. No pain no gain! And believe me, I'm not just talking about money. Regards
Absolutely. You are right. There is a time for this and there is a time for that... After 21 years teaching, I want to think that this time (weeks, months, who knows) will be well invested. I am enjoying this and it is providing me with motivation and perspective.
There are lots of great people here who generously contribute their time, talent, and life experience to helping others. That is priceless.
There is gain, even in the pain :)
Exactly my friend! Let's go together!
Hey thank you for the mention, loved to be the part of this. and yes Dream. Think. Move. Fight. is the most inspirational set of words I ever read. Lots of appreciation to you.
And for instance As I have read certain comments. I seriously do not find the posts to be a bundle and difficult to keep up with unless or untill they aren't with strong or meaningful content. I find @chbartist post to be meaningful no matter if they are so many. If I am learning something I would love to read 100 of them.
You deserve @praditya! Regards
Time ... is something that unfortunately can not be returned, it is something that happens hastily and that if we do not take advantage sometimes we can regret it ... that's why we have to manage it wisely. The work is good, but there are people who spend their time just working and do not dedicate their family ... to their children, on the contrary there are others who only think of parties and do not work in order to guarantee a stable future, as For example, buying a home for when you want to live quietly ... in short, everything must have a balance, know how to manage our time and dedicate to each thing the time necessary to lead a healthy life, complete, productive, happy and blessed.
Great words Blessed! Regards
Saludos.. te dejé mensaje.
Whaoh...! This is an incredible post. ... You see, time waits for no man the best you make use of your time the better because as seconds run off,as minutes passes and the hours click on, we are all getting older and the fact is understanding your purpose and driving towards your dream should be paramount. At the beginning of each year I make out my new year resolutions well I am afraid I have not being about to keep to all of it . It hits me so hard that I am growing older I have not reached my financial level and score my life goals. However, I am not discourage and I am very focuss and resolute in meeting very goal. I dont consider myself a failure I just know in a matter of consistent mindset of success I will surely arrive at my goal. Best regard @chbartist. Please kindly include me in your community I believe we all have values to share and contribute to everyone in the community.
Thank you @kingsleymond. You are welcome!
I appreciate the two coins of life
Time and
Life
Every person have dreams in life but those who work hard and keep focus, they get success in life.
Those who want comfort without hard work they never got anything in life.
Success is the name of continuous struggle. Success is for those who work hard.
I really appreciate your efforts towards building a strong community in which everyone is getting support from people.
Have a good day from @coolguy222

Great my friend. I also appreciate your effort and your contribution. Regards
I started to question life and myself after i was 27 years old. Now i am 34 years old. but i still question life and myself. Because whole life is a unknown. I think about time is that limit our life. So i try to don't care about time. Only i try to focus what i want and my family.
The most important thing for me is the place where you feel happy and is to be there. This place is timeless for me. As i say above i am 34 years old, but still i am feeling like 25 years old:)) My opinion don't care time, just focus your life and experience.
Thanks @chbartist, have a nice day to you and to all steemians..
Thank you for your words! Regards and have a nice week!
Thank you so much to create and provide this nice friendly place
Great concept friend! Have a good day!
Oh my goodness.. I did NOT expect to be mentioned in anything, lest a post by yours truly. I don't even know what to say. I honestly don't feel like I deserve any shoutout XD
You are always being so thoughtful and proactive, kind and uplifting for everyone in the community. That really means a lot for a lot of us, as you can clearly see from the many loving comments on this list. Before coming here I was feeling really down -- I was comparing myself to someone else when I really shouldn't have, I should have been focusing on how grateful I should be for everything I have in my life right now, than thinking of someone else's position and putting myself down.
More than anything, I should be defeating the negative side of me, and returning to feeling love and pride for others in every step they take.
I don't got a lot of pals or friends. I'm a pretty lonely person :'( But every kind word that I am given means the world to me, and I do my best to never forget that, and to always give it back as much as I can and more, so anyone else who feels lonely and down can feel like they are acknowledged to <3 My only hope is that the small comments, maybe only a minute of my day each, can bring some warmth to someones heart and make them feel validated, and noticed!
My one dream in life is to feel content and peace. I don't know how I will get there, but I will do everything I can to do so -- Make friends, succeed in career, succeed in school -- and I hope that for everyone else, they can find a way to achieve content and peace as well! I am only 23 years old, so maybe I don't know that much of what is worth pursuing and what isn't, but I hope my dream is worth the fight nevertheless, and I sure will not waste time seeking it out!
Thank you @chbartist !
If you call it coins then i must say both are precious because if there is no life then nothing is there. And in life too we need use time properly. Waste of time will surely cost us a lot which we will realise later.
Liked the story about old man and how he managed to save his grandson though he was not able to realise his potential. Sometimes situations takes out the best from us and this story is perfect example of that.
Other side, like you said our community is growing and even i am happy to see that people vote each other abd thats a great motivation for all of us as a community. If i look at few recent posts then can see more than 10 upvotes in most of the comments. As you say value is not important but the attitude toward the comment matters and it motivates the person to write more and more.
Looking forward to see increase in votes. A salute to all people who are part of @chbartist family. Have a great weekend.

@alokkumar121 I'm glad to see you can see the growing upvotes and thank you for your kind words. Have an excellent weekend too.
We must be good stewards of our time and our life so that it will always be fruitful and healthy. And that is done by dedicating time to our dreams and aspirations.
Good see you Juan! Great words!
