Our
pretty new Sailing Boat necklace brings to life the mantra, ‘If not now, when?’
One
of the key themes from the global pandemic has been a desire to not miss out on
life, or waste time. We have all learnt, more powerfully than ever, that one
never knows what is around the corner.
This
mantra captures a sense of taking action immediately, not wasting a moment. It
asks you to ask yourself – if I don’t do this thing now, then when am I going
to do it?
We
can wait until we feel ready to do something – but often, we are really just
procrastinating. We can put things off until we have more time, more money,
more training, or more expertise – or we can make a start now.
Perfect
gift to spur on a friend who needs to take action, or is always procrastinating
| a gentle reminder to yourself, to seize the moment and create the life you
want
In
bringing this to life as a design, we wanted it to be a gentle reminder, not a
shout. A sailboat brings to mind the metaphor of sailing off into the sunset. It
is shorthand for the fairy tale ending we all want in life.
It
gently hints at living your dreams, as you leave the mundane realities of life
behind and sail off into a magical world of calm seas and endless sunshine. Let
the idea of that happy place nudge you into action.
Whether
you need a daily reminder to stop procrastinating in all areas of your life, or
whether there is one big dream you could be taking steps towards – hold onto
your necklace and ask yourself, ‘If not now, when?’
Choose
the ‘If not now, when?’ Sailing Boat mantra if you personally need to be
spurred on to take action; or to give a friend that gentle reminder that she
needs, to stop making excuses; or when you need a boost to your energy,
enthusiasm or activity levels, to seize the moment and create the life you
want.
