Unlocking time…
Time is a non spatial continuum it does not exist and yet we are forever referring to it as if it is a commodity. “I never have enough time” or “I don’t know where the time goes”.
If we evaluated are own behaviours associated with time, it might begin to explain are association with it.
Pause and answer the following questions:-
- What did you do with the last hour in work yesterday?
- How do you feel about time today?
- If you had an extra hour what would you do with it?
The last question has to be answered by saying something you would do specifically and sleep is not allowed as an answer.
When we look at these questions we need to decide whether we are controlling time or is it controlling us.
The last hour at work, were you in charge, or were you working on other peoples work or were you tired and unproductive. This review of the last hour is quite enlightening as to how you are managing your priorities. The last hour ideally should be spent getting yourself ready for the next day. Take time to write down what you want to achieve tomorrow.
How do you feel about time today? This is time to recognise the quality of time and enjoying the hours you have. Being pro-active in your mindset about how you will spend it and the value you will get from it.
The extra hour is identifying, what matters most in your world. We often answer the question with something that is linked to what we value in life. Spending time on our mind, body or with our loved ones.
