No one can turn back the hands of time. Therefore, it is
important to make the best of our time.
Time is precious. Time is also measured in money – remember
the famous words of Benjamin Franklin – “Remember that time is money.”
Most small chores can
be accomplished in bits and pieces of time. What is meant here is that we can
move mountains in the minute here or there we just sit idle and waiting – while
waiting in the waiting room of the hospital for your appointment you can write
a letter, whilst traveling to work by train your shopping list can be compiled,
and think of many more examples.
1. What can be accomplished in 5 minutes?
· Make an
appointment with the dentist
· Paint your
nails
· Water indoor
plants
· Write out a
cheque for your electricity bill
· Make a cup
of tea
· Pick up the
phone and just say hello to your mother in the old age home.
2. What can be accomplished in 10 minutes?
· Write a
short letter SMS to your mother in the old age home
· Buy a
birthday card for your friend
· Plant a tray
of seedlings
· Sort out
your washing
· Clean up
your desk
· Do some
breathing exercises
3. What can be accomplished in 30 minutes?
· Read the
headline stories of your newspaper
· Water your flowerbeds
· Wash the
piled-up dishes of the day
· Bring a
courtesy visit to your next-door neighbour
· Take your
dog for a brisk walk.
· Have a tea
party with your daughter and her dolls
So, never say you do not have time for small chores or in
your eyes, trivial matters; because for someone dear and near you, it may be
important matters.
Remember, make time to love somebody!
