How many times have you thought or said, Sure, Id like to (take a course, take a vacation, work on an additional skill or project, etc) but there just isnt enough time. When we say, There just isnt enough time, were shirking responsibility.
Lets look at time and Ill show you what I mean.
Time is a unique resource. It cannot be saved, stopped, or replaced. Its interesting, then, that some people seem to find time to get things accomplished that others dont. Some people seem to be able to manage time better than others and are thus able to better use time.
The fact is, these resourceful people cannot find time or manage time any more than the rest of us. Time cannot be managed or found. We all have the same amount of time in a day, a week, a month, and a year.
Everyone has:
24 hours in a day
168 hours in a week
8,736 hours in a year
613,200 hours in a lifetime (assuming a life span of 70 years)
306,600 hours left (assuming youre now 35 years old)
How many hours do you have left in your life? Take a minute to calculate the time and write your answer in the margin. Compare the accomplishments youve achieved...
