We have plans and full agendas. We have spontaneity and things that fits our interest…but not our agenda. We have work and projects. We have free time, meeting friends, going to parties, travelling …the list can go on. And for all these activities that we have in our busy agenda, we have to prepare our attendance also, to consider the travelling time and so on….And we also have to sleep and rest, normally recommended at least 8h/day….
Yes, we have a lot of activities and only 24 h/day, and for that we need time management. We are always bounded by time, and weather we respect it or not, time is not waiting for no one and it’s not turning back!! There are a lot of resources on time management, a lot of trainings, I am not going to talk more about that here, I will just share the best learning I had related to the value of time: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xIyojpU7yBg&feature=related
I hope you got a little bit of inspiration and learning from this video. But as promised, in this blog I am trying to show also a little bit of fun related to this serious topic of time management.
Personally, when I am pressured by a lot of things, I am cutting time from the recommended 8h of sleep/night because I have a high level of energy and I can work just fine for quite some weeks with only a few hours/night. ..but I am not usually a morning person, not even when I have the 8h/night…. My priority is to make the most of my precious time and experiences, no matter if the day it’s starting at 5 am in the morning or at 9 am….My biorhythm is making me more productive in the afternoon or evening then in the morning, so I can easily stay until late in the night..
…and here comes the problem :d….sleeping late and sleeping less means I have high chances of not hearing the alarm and waking up late…and probably I am not the only one!! …so I prepared a poll for you, please vote your answer!
Weather you are waking up fast or not, early or late, try to imagine this situation: you have a very early meeting and it’s hard for you to wake up in the morning…
…you do your best, you put all the possible alarm clocks next to you, you get the most innovative wake up services…..
…still, when you will finally wake up, your face will probably look like this 🙂 :
A really heavy sleeper person had the same issues ….. and in this video you can see his solution, that’s what it takes to wake him up in the morning 🙂 : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kQ-l5PlDa-k.
If you have some other fun ways of waking up …or at least efficient ways 😀 …please be so kind and share them! I might just learn new things…and get on time 🙂 for all the morning appointments.
