One of the things I get asked a lot is, "How do you manage your time?" When I meet people and they ask me what I do, I rattle of in a very TINY nutshell the things below in under 3 minutes. After all, that's all you've got. I've got less than 3 minutes to sell myself to a stranger.
In order of priority, this is what I do:
Wife and Mom to my three children. I'm down to two at home since my oldest moved out (he's soon to be 19).
Work a full time job in town. I commute to and from work.
I teach coupon 101 classes in any open time slots available.
I blog my shopping trips, reviews, or provide other tips that may help other improve, empower, and, be more efficient.
Manage my website to keep the monthly specials updated.
I do Essential Oil presentations when needed to those interested to learn more about natural alternatives to medicine and well being.
I promote Nomades, a sterling silver jewelry company that specializes in patriotic and military themed pieces.
I am a Notary Public. When I have time in between the other things, I meet up with those in need of a Notary.
I'll give you a few minutes for your head to stop spinning.
I am currently reading another free book I received from Mr. John Cruise called "Time on Your Hands: How to Manage your Schedule. (Thank you John for always allowing me the opportunity to read your work!)
In the introduction, Mr. Cruise quotes a very popular saying which I have personally taken to heart about 10 years ago. You've probably read this before and reminders are necessary. Especially when the words are true to every single person on this planet. Enjoy!
To realize the value of ONE YEAR, ask a student who failed a grade.
To realize the value of ONE MONTH, ask a mother who has given birth to a
premature baby.
To realize the value of ONE WEEK, ask the editor of a weekly newspaper.
To realize the value of ONE HOUR, ask the lovers who are waiting to meet.
To realize the value of ONE MINUTE, ask a person who just missed a train.
To realize the value of ONE SECOND, ask someone who just avoided an accident.
To realize the value of ONE MILLISECOND, ask the person who won a silver medal at
the Olympics.
Treasure every moment that you have! And treasure it more because you shared it
with someone special, special enough to spend your time with. And remember time
waits for no one.
Yesterday is history. Tomorrow is a mystery. Today is a gift. That's why it’s called the
present.
