Thieves are everywhere, and all too often, we don’t recognize them. Unlike the squirrel above, many of the robbers in life aren’t so visible.

“Where did the time go?” declares many people. Did it fly away? Did someone steal it? Time is one thing we can never get back. Where does your time go? Do you spend too much time on the phone? Perhaps the internet devours your hours. What about TV? The list can be endless.

Do you protect your time by setting goals and establishing boundaries? If not, you may be watching time fly out the window.

What can you do to avoid time loss? You don’t have to be productive 24/7, but it is good to budget your time. Time budgeting can make your work more productive and your down time more enjoyable.

Watch out for those thieves!
