I’m a little short of time this afternoon (not to mention that the sun is shining and my garden is calling) so I’m going to keep this one brief. Of course being short of time can have its own benefits - as Leonard Bernstein said “To achieve great things, two things are needed; a plan, and not quite enough time…”
So here are three quick links to some interesting reflections on time and how we choose to use it.
Enterpreneur Tim Ellis talks to Darren Rowse (Problogger) about how to ‘fill the void’ that can open up once you hit the target of working just 4 hours a week.
Anna Farmery at the Engaging Brand approaches time from the other end of the spectrum and reminds those of us who might feel time poor of what can be achieved in just five minutes.
Finally, Shama Hyder’s birthday post reminds us to live in the present rather than the land of the as-ifs… because the here and now is all that we have. And what an amazing "all" it is.
Now I’m off out to the garden to do nothing for a little while, except think about the wise words of philosopher Bertrand Russell:
“The time you enjoy wasting is not wasted time.”
