Waiting Time Is Good Time




Time is what we want most, but what we use worst.
 William Penn

Do you know how much time you spend in your life time in waiting?   For a month from today log all the waiting time – waiting to catch a bus, waiting in the office for the meeting to start, waiting in the airport, the railway station and waiting to get sleep! You will be stunned to see the following calculation:

If you are spending just 30 minutes a day in waiting, multiply it by 30, which comes to 900 minutes per month; multiply it by 12 and it comes to 10,800 minutes per year. In your active life span of 25 years it accounts for 270,000 minutes, which means 4500 hours. If you consider eight hours as one man day, it comes to 562 days which is about one and a half years! This is for just thirty minutes waiting time per day! Most of us spend easily three times this and just calculate how much time is it!

From today treat waiting time also as productive time. With the kind of electronic gadgets we have, we should be able to put this enormous time into effective use.
Do it today!
