Time, once it is spent, its gone! No refund, no turning back the clock and no action replays. Time is a commodity that is fixed. Jim Rohn, one of the pioneers of personal development once said: “Time is our most valuable asset, yet we tend to waste it, kill it and spend it rather than invest it.”
Can we honestly say today that we are investing our time wisely? Time is our most valuable resource because we cannot take it back, so is it time to start looking at how we really use it?
Our jobs seem to be more and more demanding on our time and attention. Lot of people are taking on more and working longer hours in the hope they will achieve more. However, the negative effects of overworking are serious and far-reaching, from our health and well-being to our productivity.
According to an article in the Independent back in 2018, a survey found that the average Briton will spend 3,507 days at work, including 204 days of overtime in their lifetime. They also found that the average British worker will put in 34 hours and 26 minutes of work a week. This totals 1,791 hours a year, and 84,171 hours in the course of their career. If this survey was to be completed again, what do you think the hours and days worked, would be now?
The past 12 months has seen a huge increase in pressure to get our economy back up and running after the Pandemic. And in some cases, companies are stretching their working weeks to keep up with demand. The pressures of work life balance are being tested. It’s time to start looking at our systems to ensure productivity is kept high, and as Jim Rohn said, invest in our time not waste it.
