GOD'S GIFT

 

Every morning we receive an invaluable gift from the Almighty. He offers us a packet of 24 hours, in other words, one day. This precious gift is our precious life! During this period, what we do is more important. How do we spend the 24 h? There are ways and means to budget this time for our various activities. Some of us follow the ‘what to do’ diary every day. Most of us do not bother to allot time to every activity we undertake. If we really know the value of the gift, we never will waste a minute. We cannot get back the time lost!

Those who are successful in life always valued time. They respected time. They managed time. There are thousands of books and articles on time management. One should read them and adopt in one’s life. Well spent time is well spent life! Life is linked with time. We cannot separate time from life. It is said that the growth of an organism takes place at every infinitesimally smallest time something like nano second even though it’s difficult to measure.

Time management varies from person to person. Out of 24 h, leaving 8 h for sleeping, we have 16 h. If we are employed we have to spend 8 h in office leaving 8 h. Out of that 2 h for travel to work and back. Finally we have 6 h at our disposal. For personal duties we may require say 2 h. Still we have 4 h or 240 min left.

One hour for physical exercise and one hour for entertainment such as watching TV, reading books, newspapers etc., One hour for discussing and planning family activities. One hour for miscellaneous activities such as hobbies…In fact, the core time goes for sleeping and main activity.

Rest of the time if properly planned, God’s every day gift will bring happiness and good health. - NARA
