Making The Most of Your Leisure Time
Saving time in your leisure time Time is our most precious commodity.
People can take it from you without being convicted.
It can be wasted and never replaced.
It is one of our most precious commodities in this life yet we may not give it as much value.
Others may have more of it than you do yet it may be something that you cannot change.
Ask yourself, what would you do if you had more time in your life?
Here are a few tips on saving your most precious gift: 1.
Record your programmes Have you ever just sat there flicking channels but watching nothing? Well, say goodbye to that habit and learn how to use your VCR, your DVD recorder or your satellite recorder.
Of course, the TV companies don't want you to do that.
They want you to watch commercials and other boring programs that make them money.
Don't fall to the ploy and save yourself around 750 hours a year! 2.
Start planning Now I don't want you to plan every moment of your life.
So you want to do pottery/sewing/art classes? Ask yourself, what is stopping you from doing them and what do you need to do to start you doing the things you REALLY want to do in your life? 3.
Keep a time diary So you don't know where your time is going? Or perhaps you are giving too much priority to something else and leaving yourself short? No excuse now.
I want you to keep a time diary over the next month.
By doing this, you will be come aware of where your time is going and be finally be able to take charge of it and start making the changes that need to be made.
Hope this helps you to use your time more effectively and give just as much importance to your leisure time so that you will be doing the things you really want to do with your time.

Ask yourself, what would you do if you had more time in your life?
- Would you spend more time with friends and family?
- Perhaps, you could go on a trip around the world or simply around your own country!
- Would you finish all those DIY projects you started and never quite got around to complete?
- Maybe you could learn to knit, cook, drive, how to apply make-up or any number of skills?
