You Can Have it all

The number one thing that college kids, and almost all other working adults for that matter, need to remind themselves is that they can have it all, they just can't have as much of all of it as they might want. That statement is probably confusing to most of you reading this post, so let me explain to all of you what I mean. You can have time to do everything you want. Even the most devout workaholics only work 80 hours a week (I know that that is probably the first time that you have hear the words only and work 80 hours in the same sentence). Now don't get me wrong, that's a killer load, but that means that even if you are married to your job, or your school work if you are a student, you still have 32 hours a week to do whatever you want after you account for 8 hours of sleep a night.
The good news is that most people do not work 80 hours a work, and most students do not need to spend anywhere near 80 hours a week working and studying, even with part-time work and difficult course loads. However, even though they could have a lot of time to pursue the things they love, most people allow work and school to become their entire life. So clearly, it is not exactly how much free time we have that makes the biggest difference but rather what we do with that free time that matters. I believe that there are a few simple things that we all can practice that will allow you to have more time to pursue the things that you love, and I will be introducing them on a daily basis to help all of you live your passions.
