It can be easy to think.... "I just don't have enough time to get everything done that I need to." Which is why people text and drive at the same time.... we are all multi-tasking all the time. But really the secret is not in having more time, but rather it's in managing time wisely. Everybody has the very same amount of time each day, be they rich or poor. It's how it's spent that causes either progression or regression in all things.
Here's a little daily practical math test....
How much time is spent in traffic?
How much time is spent on the phone?
How much time is spent watching tv?
How much time is spent on the internet?
What time is bedtime for you?
What time do you get up?
Add these areas up and you can see where some extra time is hiding at.
There are hidden pockets of time here that managed better could reap more time in your life. For instance just getting up one hour earlier than normal is a whole hour to yourself! Try two hours earlier and you will be amazed! Suddenly there is time to pray.... to think.... to study....
Find the time.... it's there.... just buried under lots of other people's stuff, ideas, and entertainment.
Try to find those areas that put you back in control of time, instead of the alarm clock, the door bell, the phone calls, the text chirps, the addiction of Facebook and the wrist watch.
It's worth finding them.... after all once a moment is gone.... it's gone. We can't get time back. Spend it wisely my friends.
