Getting older has its pros and cons. One major con is that time seems to move much faster now. 16 hours in a day huh? Well if I spend 8-10 of those working, 1-2 commuting, and 1-2 eating and a few with kids, not really much time left over is there. How do you make sure to use your time effectively so that your life isn't slipping away?

My secret is to just sleep less. It’s not good. Don’t do it. My goal this year is to actually sleep more, and I’m actually up 20 mins on average compared to last year.

Nice! I'm starting to think if I sleep more maybe I'll be more effective the other 17 hrs of the day.

My secret was not having kids. It's a lot easier to find time for yourself if your responsibilities outside of work are minimal. Seriously though, I don't envy people who have to juggle it all. There really isn't enough time in the day.

I always say the older I get the faster time seems to go by. Its crazy isn't it? The years go by like days now it seems. I count my blessings every day and am really present in my life so that time doesn't slip by.

I think the attitude of gratitude is critical to success at this point. Problem is i forget to be grateful most days! Work in progress though

I feel this so much. Once you subtract work, commuting, and family responsibilities, the day disappears fast. I try to remind myself that even small pockets of intentional time count. Otherwise, it really does come down to making sacrifices like most people do, and unfortunately, sleep often seems like the easiest one to give up.

Make personal goals and treat them just as seriously as work goals

Question about inclusion…. I’ve been teaching inclusion for 5 years so I’m still a newb, but a first year coworker of mine said she got points off on her observation because her kids were scattered in the classroom and she was having to move from kid to kid to assist. While I see the point of putting them together for convenience, I don’t agree with this at all! To me this is like singling them out by putting them all together instead of INCLUDED amongst peers. What do y’all think?
