The 10% Time Rule

We can’t buy time so all we can do is manage it. Usually our stress comes from not having enough time or dealing with unexpected things that take up our time.

Why not plan for it like we do everything else?

If we take the 10% rule, each week has 168 hours: 10% of that is 16.8 hours. If we exclude 8 hours for sleeping that leaves us 113 hours: 10% of that is 11.3 hours.

What if we say 11 hours is free time with nothing scheduled, we could stop being weighed down and under pressure?

Let us be leaders of our time so we can feel lighthearted today.
