How much can you accomplish in a day? The answer, of course, depends on how you schedule your time.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I\u2019ve had a quirky daily routine for more than a decade that allows me the freedom to do what I want yet still write a book<\/a> about every other year, deliver talks<\/a> around the world, coach clients and advise companies<\/a>.<\/p>\n And I still have the time to go on a month-long, 273-mile backpacking adventure<\/a>, surf, dance, read, and be together with family and friends.<\/p>\n My typical schedule, weekdays and weekends included, looks like this:<\/p>\n Did you notice anything unusual? (Well, besides the fact that I do everything early.)<\/p>\n Many people are surprised that I do not eat dinner (except for at the occasional dinner meeting or family gathering). I eat a large breakfast and lunch, so I am getting my calories. Studies show<\/a> that eating your largest meal at the end of the day might affect health.<\/p>\n I don\u2019t watch TV and very rarely watch a show on Netflix or a video on YouTube, perhaps just two or three hours a week on average. Boy does that give me time to do what I want! I\u2019ve seen various estimates about how many hours the average American spends watching TV and streaming video<\/a> and the numbers are absolutely staggering.<\/p>\n Let\u2019s just say that on average if you don\u2019t watch TV or video, you can have an additional 2,000 hours (two thousand hours!) a year to do something else.<\/p>\n We all have choices about what we do with the limited hours in a day. Choose wisely.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n
