Control of Time
 Control of Time ... strictly by time? We set ourselves specific times to eat, work, sleep, and socialise but where do we give ourselves freedom? It appears we have lost a great deal of our flexibility and increased our ability or need to control that which happens around us. Surely this means a greater amount of expectation and attachment to results and therefore a greater increase in stress? What are your thoughts on this topic?Newest Review: ... work people and just people in general, even a modest level of time management in your personal life can make you a much happier person. When you think about it people who use time management techniques routinely are the highest achievers in all walks of life, from business to sport to public service. To effectively manage our time it is important that we concentrate on the end results ... more ... rather than being busy! Many people, me being one of them spend their day in a frenzy of activity, but when you look at it actually achieve very little because they are wasting a lot of time concentrating on the things that aren't important.

"A person should sethis goals as early as he can and devote all his energy and talent to getting there. With enough effort, he may achieve it. Or he may find something that is even more rewarding.

If there is silence, we fill it with noise; If it is white, we fill it with colour; If there is peace, we fill it with war; If time is ours, we give it away. It is in our nature to stretch ourselves, to fidget and fuss and tinker. It takes discipline not to hurry and agitate for every second of the day. It takes discipline to be still. Everything tangible around us is defined in time. We are increasingly conscious of it. First, we were aware of it as light and darkness, then as seasons. The introduction of sundials and clocks and the calendars united man the world over in trying to control time. Our microwave meal, telephone bill, parking ...

When I was young (a lot more younger than today..), time seemed longer and drawn out. The first 10yrs of my life felt very long; and I thought that my descent into teendom and early adulthood would seem as equally long. Life was going to be longer than people were saying at the time. But as you many know, your teens whizz by; and though I'm not particularly old, it's odd to think in 7yrs time I'll be 30 (not hugely old too, but you get my drift). I certainly don't feel it. On the surface level it does seem quite sad that most of us lead robotic lives. We all have schedules or routines, or designated times for work, rest and play; but ...
