Making the most of your day

Dr. Stephen Covey made this same point repeatedly in the "Seven Habits of Highly Effective People." The critical thing is to determine what are the big rocks in your life and put those in your jar first, every minute, every hour, every day, every week, every month, every year. In the end it will be a successful life.

Do you often tell others (and yourself) that you just don't have enough time? If you are like most people, this is probably something you think about at least once a day. It seems like our lives continue getting busier but time never grows in proportion. This quote reminds us that great things can (and have been) done with the time that we all have. What will you do with your time today?

Don't say you don't have enough time. You have exactly the same number of hours per day that were given to Helen Keller, Pasteur, Michelangelo, Mother Teresa, Leonardo da Vinci, Thomas Jefferson, and Albert Einstein.
