While you may feel pressed and like you are unable to get
everything done – I certainly feel that way most of the time – you HAVE time.
You don’t waste it. It just gets away from you.
There are 168 hours in a week. If you work and travel to get
to work for 60 hours a week (and I bet you don’t), that still leaves 108 hours.
If you sleep 8 hours a day, that still leaves 52 hours in a week (and you are
sleeping well with 8 a day!).
Fifty-two hours a week to eat and such is a little over 7
hours a day.
Do you really do chores for 7 hours a day?
We have time.
We just don’t think much about how we use it. You can do something about that.
You have a computer. You probably have a spreadsheet program
like Excel. Along the first column enter
the hours of a day starting with midnight. Do it in 15 minute blocks 12:00,
12:15, 12:30 and so on all the way down to midnight. Then for a day, a few
days, a week, write down what you did during all of those quarter hours. When
you finish, you will learn some amazing things about your time. If you do this
for a week, it will take no more than two of those quarter hours to enter what
you did and maybe another 15 minutes to ponder what it means, but it may change
the way you think of - and invest – your time for life.
I’ll even save you some time. Email me at mail@mycommunity.com and I’ll send you
an excel spreadsheet ready to go.
