Time and time again, we often forget that our most valuable resource that everybody has is Time. I know that you’ve heard of it, and I’m personally guilty myself for even using the excuse “I don’t have time”. When the truth is, the real problem is “not” managing your time wisely. So who ever invented that phrase of not having any time at all has really affected the way most people think. And I strongly believe that we should think first, before we answer not having any time at all.

So what motivated me to start this kind of thoughts? Well, since I’ve joined the Yakezie Group, (I’m still on probation, by the way) I have been slowly looking into each member’s blog site. And I am sure that these sites provide a treasure of information and resources that you wouldn’t want to miss out on reading. In other words, they are really worth your time.

And talking about time, have you ever thought that even though you are working that day job same as me and other employees, we get to have at least 132 days off? That’s a whopping more than 4 months of time a year that you could really do a lot of wonder with. Unlike Bytta of 151 Days Off, she was lucky enough to be able to have a lot of days for the year 2010 to spend her valuable time on.

I would like you to take a look on the way she sees the weekends, holidays and annual leaves in making you time’s worth really manageable and enjoy what life has to offer. Planning ahead of time for the entire year and managing your finances are really a good start and believe me, it does have its rewards.

Starting now, I recommend that we (yes, including myself) to plan in advance, make a list of how many days we have days off for this year, manage our finances, look for good opportunities to book traveling places early (to get some discounts for the low season), and of course, learn to add more information about financial matters each day to improve our knowledge and skills.

I do admit that it did change my view of time management and even inspired me a lot to know that actually, we don’t work 12 months a year, it’s more or less only 7 – 8 months actually. What a relief!
