Time Management

In the movie Dan in Real Life, the lead character gives the following advice:

“Instead of telling our young people to plan ahead, we should tell them to plan to be surprised.”

We are often told by our parents, teachers and managers to plan ahead and schedule our time.

Although this has its advantage, it can often cause us stress and frustration when things do not go as planned.

Throughout our lives, we have been conditioned to believe that we need 8 hours sleep.

Scientists tested this theory and their results proved to be remarkable.

During the experiment, scientists monitored volunteers to study their sleeping habits. All of the volunteers were placed in an environment where they could not see whether it was day or night outside. They also had no access to watches, clocks or any other instrument to tell them what time it was. Similarly, their meals were served randomly so that they could not estimate what time it could be.
