An exercise to realize how many “moments” you have:

 

Try the “100 blocks a day method>:

Perspective is a powerful tool when you talk about scheduling your time.

According to the writers at Wait But Why, if you sleep 8 hours a night, that leaves you with about 1,000 waking minutes a day to schedule. Or, about 100 10-minute blocks.

Lay those blocks out on a grid and ask yourself, how many are:

Put toward making your future better, and how many of them are just there to be enjoyed?

Spent with other people, and how many are for time by yourself?

Used to create something, and how many are used to consume something?

This isn’t necessarily a practice any (sane) person would go through on a daily basis, but the idea behind it is sound. Know you have a finite amount of time each day and see how many blocks you have.

 

Thank you Jessica K for the inspiration this morning!
