Tick Tock Tick Tock

The other day when I lament about how I spend my time, I opened my gallery and pulled out a picture that has been becoming my guide in dividing time.

From that guide above, one can divide the time as follows :

Sleep : 8 hours
Work : 9 hours
Exercise : 2 hours
Time left : 5 hours

But in reality, it's not easy as it appears. For instance, I am one that won't spend 2 hours for working out. The maximum time I spend working out will be 30 minutes. So that means, I will have spare 1 and half hour to do something else.

When it comes to work, I certainly don't spend that much time. 9 hours working is a lot of time to get several articles a day. Maximum, I spend about an hour writing 2 articles and that's something of my rambling. Though sometimes it will take me couple of hours to write a well-researched article that's a bit outside my domain.

And my time left, I use to spend it on doing nothing. So lately, this comes into my attention and I want to be more mindful about the time I spent. I can use some of its time to practice my skills.

I think lately, I am not being intentional about my routine at all. I wasted 420 hours and I gained nothing from it. I am going to be more intentional so I can make up with the time I lost.

If you want to design time and your day, the easiest way is pick up a pen and start diving time. Everyone loves metric and it's much more digestible than without metrics.So, try it out and let me know how you spend your 24 hours.
