Running Out of Time
The famous conductor Leonard Bernstein said, “To achieve great things, two things are needed: a plan, and not enough time.
Why does it always seem we are running out of time? How do you spend your time? In previous articles and blogs I spoke of creating a monetary budget to determine your spending habits over a 3-month period.
You should do the same exercise for your time. Do not take 3 months to find out how you spend your time. This exercise is good for one month. So for one month you should record how you spend your time from how many hours of sleep you get per night to how many hours per night you spend in front of the television.
Once you find out this information (and most people are surprised to the amount wasted) the next exercise is to reduce your wasted hours and time and apply the extra time (which really is not extra) to develop and create a plan for your dream.
Imagine if you watch television only one hour a night for 7 nights. This equals 28 hours in a month. Imagine if you can devote 28 hours toward your passion and dream.
How much more do you think you can accomplish if you utilize 28 more hours per month? Your dream can start with one small step. Take it!
