An Hour A Day Raising the Barr Weekly Memo: Issue 148

This week’s reflection point: Imagine what it would be like having one extra hour added to your day, each and every day of the year. This past weekend, we all got an extra hour of time to relax, create, waste or work. And there’s always so much hype leading up to the time change; constant media reminders to change the clock on the appliances, fall back, not to miss an early appointment and replace the smoke alarm batteries.

On the day of the time change and for a few days afterward, we are constantly calculating what time it really is, analyzing why we are still so tired, why we can’t sleep and remarking on how much darker it is by the end of our work day.

One extra hour per day translates into 9 extra weeks a year!

So I ask you, how would you use an extra hour every day if you could have one?

This week’s tip: Why not look at your present day and find out how to best use the hours to free up one of those hours and devote it to the things about which you are most passionate. It’s up to you to make it worthwhile and improve your life either personally or professionally.
