time management

When I was young I went to the mall. It was just something to do, something pointless, never got me anywhere. Passing the time.

I had never learned to control my time. It has been hard ever since.

If you are looking to make changes start with controlling your time. Of course you have to play the cards already dealt. You can control the time you get up but you can't control (without effort) the time it takes you to drive to work, you've already made a compromise on that. You can control what you do while commuting to work. You can listen to the radio, something pointless, or you can listen to audio books and programs.

Start with one event a day, something you have control over. We have to condition ourselves to accept new habits.

Don't be fooled by optimism. Don't scoff at the whole idea of managing your time now because you will have more time in the future, you won't. Time is the only thing that we all really have and we have less today than we did yesterday.

You cannot save time either. You have what you have and you either spend it productively or you don't. It's gone either way after that.

Start making choices about managing your time.
