6 Ways to Make the Most of Your 24 Hours

“Time is what we want most, but what we use worst.” ~ William Penn

Everyone is given 24 hours in a day. Usually eight of those hours are for sleep, eight are for work, and eight are for you time (or family time). Just like your bank accounts, learning to budget your time is key to reducing stress and achieving your goals. It’s not about time management, it’s about self-management. You have a choice for how you spend your time. The key is finding what works best for you when it comes to planning out your days.

“Ordinary people think merely of spending time. Great people think of using it.” ~ Author Unknown

If you’re looking for some tips on how to plan your days, I have six great ones listed below for making the most of the hours given to you:

1) Time is wasted in minutes, not hours. Make the most of all the time you have, even if it’s just a minute here and there.

2) You can’t do everything, but you can do something. Make sure you keep clear in your mind what is important / not important and urgent / not urgent. Tasks that seem to be urgent, may not

What is The Strangest Secret?

“The Strangest Secret” is a recorded essay by Earl Nightingale, which was first shared in 1956. It has sold over a million copies and is the only gold record ever achieved for the spoken word. It’s message is simple – you become what you think about. Below I have broken out the four key ideas from this essay. All credit for the following goes to Mr. Earl Nightingale and his essay “The Strangest Secret.”

The Definition of Success

Success is the progressive realization of a worthy ideal. A success is the school teacher who is teaching because that’s what he or she wants to do. A success is the entrepreneur who start his own company because that was his dream — that’s what he wanted to do. A success is anyone who is realizing a worthy predetermined ideal, because that’s what he or she decided to do … deliberately.

“The opposite of courage in our society is not cowardice… it is conformity.” ~ Rollo May

Will Smith: Representing What Is Possible

Thanks to a very loyal fan of this blog, I was recently given the link to a great Will Smith video montage on YouTube. The name of it is Will’s Wisdom (check it out here), and I found this video to have many great thoughts on life. Viewing this video actually lead me to explore YouTube a little more to find other videos of Will sharing his wisdom and insight. The video provided below is just one of his many available interviews, but I wanted to share this one with you because of the following 5 ideas. Take a look at the list, then watch the video. What’s one key point that Will makes that stands out for you?

Represent the possibilities. Will doesn’t want to be an icon, he wants to be an idea. He wants to leave an impact on people by representing what is possible. In your life, how do you represent to others what is possible?
Make a choice, don’t leave your life to be an effect of someone else’s decision. We are who we choose to be.
Create for yourself what you want. Make a decision to create something, then study and learn it until you
