Time, time, ticking ….

If you were given only three hours to accomplish either a goal or a project or something else, how would that work out? Would you do it by yourself or would you gather around your trusted friends and companions to help you make the deadline?

It amazes me how much you can get done if you have a little bit of time. It’s also amazing how much shopping you can do and purchase in the amount of time it takes for a meter to run out. It’s kind of dangerous to the pocket book!

We have 24 hours in a day, yet I’ve experienced days that seem to be over in a flash. I’ve also experienced days that drag on forever, feeling like the calendar will never change to a new day.

I’m trying to be more aware of time these days. Time to balance what I want and need to do; time to balance seeing friends and family; time to balance setting goals and working to achieve them. I’m aware of how quickly life goes and how things can change in an instant — I want to get the most out of the time I can.

What are you doing with your time?
