This week I heard someone say that you should treat the time you have similarly to how you would treat your money. I'm all about making my money work and split it out via various categories. My time, though? I'm afraid that I squander it away.
From now until I find myself wisely spending my time without a brainstorm session in advance, I want to come up with a monthly list of activities I may want to do and things that I'm looking forward to. Hopefully you'll find yourself thinking about how you can better spend the time you are given.
