I saw this picture and it reminded me of a couple of weeks ago when I ran through the park kicking the leaves, enjoying the autumn colours and the sun on my face. The colours are beginning to fade along with the sun and the nights are drawing in and the clocks went back an hour yesterday!

However it got me thinking that if I could add an extra hour a day, a week or a month what would I want to do with it?

As Geoffrey Chaucer said, ‘Time and Tide waits for no man’ which galvanized me into action I grabbed my ipad and started a list…

An extra hour a day would allow me to;

Be ahead on my social media stuff
Swim more often
Have time to read those books still on my shelf
Spend more time with my children
Talk instead of text my friends
Assist more clients
Go to more networking events
Walk my dog for longer
Inspire more students

Then if I had to hone it down to only an extra hour per week how would I spend the time? Looking at the first list and understanding what supports me and gives me clarity it would have to be either…

Spend time more with my children
or
Walk my dog for longer

So

If I could only have an extra hour per month, well that’s easy based on the fact that the last two choices also motivate and inspire me, what a cracking combination they will be …

I will walk with my children and the dog at least once a month. Not sure that the children will see it that way however maybe the lure could be bacon butties or Sunday lunch in a pub!

What would you do with your extra hour?
