\"1990<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Reminds me of the line, “Most people grossly overestimate what they can get done in a day and grossly under estimate what they can accomplish in a decade.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So your question for today is, “What activity do you do that is a relative waste of time for 90 minutes a day or 10 hours of your week? Or, if that is too harsh, “What do you presently do for 10 hours a week that is a low priority activity that you could easily drop from your schedule?”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Because that adds up to, let’s see, 10 hours a week is 520 hours a year, 5,200 hours in 10 years divided by 40 hours a week is 130 weeks divided by 52 weeks in a year is 2.5 years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What major goal would you like to accomplish if someone said, “You don’t have to work for the next 30 months, your bills are covered, go for it!”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Because ten hours a week adds up to a lot over ten years.
\n10 hours a week is 520 hours a year or 5,200 hours in 10 years.
\n5,200 hours divided by 40 hours a week is 130 weeks.
\n130 weeks divided by 52 weeks in a year is 2.5 years or 30 months.
\nWhat could you accomplish if you had two and a half years to do it?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thonk about what major goal would you like to accomplish if someone said, “You don’t have to work for the next two and a half years, your bills are covered, go for it!”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now allocate that 10 hours a week to it!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And enjoy the proud satisfaction of production and accomplishment of something worthwhile!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
