Where does your time go?

“Time is more valuable than money. You can get more money but you can not get more time.” - Jim Rohn

One of the smartest things you can do from financing point is to monitor where every single penny is going to. Monitor your finances, expenses and earnings. Once you know how much money is coming in and how much is going out and where it’s going out, you are in a better position to design your financial plan.We all know how much time is coming in. It’s 24 hours in a day. All across the world, no matter who you are or how rich or how poor you are, everyone has 24 hours in a day. At the end of the day we all know that we’ve spent all those 24 hours. There is no savings here, once the time has gone, it’s gone forever.

Where are you spending your time?

Majority of the people around the world have jobs so let’s say around 10 hours a day are spent on the job. Now that includes the job itself and commuting. If you are sleeping around 8 hours a day, you are still left with 6 hours. Out of those 6 hours let’s take out 2 hours for eating, getting ready for work, showering etc. Now we’re left with those 4 hours. What are you doing with those 4 hours? Are you spending that time watching television? Are you doing another activity that you enjoy? Do you have a hobby? Do you have another job? Do you volunteer?

I am going to start monitoring where my time’s being spent. I still have tomorrow off as a holiday so I will start monitoring my time on tuesday. This will be a great eye opener. At the end of the day it always feels like another day has gone by and nothing has been achieved.

This way I can find out exactly what I am doing with my time and make some changes accordingly.
