How many people can realistically relate to the age-old saying, “I have all the time in the world?” Not very many people can say this in today’s world. So the question becomes, “How can I make more time?” or “How can I manage my time more efficiently so I can do the things I really want to do?” To answer this, it is important to ask, “What am I doing within the time I have?”
