TAKE ACTION TODAY
- Stop and think...then make a list of what matters most to you.
- Create a list of how you currently spend your time each week.
- Organize your list of weekly activities and identify activities that are required and those that are optional or that waste time.
- Take steps to rearrange your schedule or reduce the optional activities so that you can spend more time doing what matters most.
- Don't waste time.
The average person spends:
- 100 hours a year commuting to work, compared to 80 hours of vacation time.
- 91 hours a week at work for dual-career couples with kids under 18.
- 1.8 hours a day doing household activities.
- 2.6 hours a day watching TV.
- 8.6 hours a day sleeping.
Time is a non-renewable resource. Once it's used up, you can't get it back.
