Time is a funny thing.

If time is a funny thing, time management is hilarious. It steals the show! If it were not so sad, it would be funny.

Has time stolen your show?

Let us examine what we are dealing with.

For kids, time drags on. Waiting for summer vacation. Waiting for another birthday. Waiting to open the presents. Waiting seems endless for a child.

As we age and enter the real world of work, family, responsibility, deadlines, lists and stress, time is never enough. What is up with that?

Time? Is it real? If time is real, why is it when we are doing things we love, time flies? When we are doing things we loathe, time drags on?

Let’s leave the debate of whether time is real or not to the physicists and mathematicians.

What we want to discuss is how time affects your world of potential and possibilities. You know, the good life! The life everyone else seems to be living.

Just so we have a common point of reference, let us call 24 hours, one day. If you are a resident of planet earth, all people have this same 24-hour time period. Here is the stretch: Some people make better use of this 24-hour time period (a day) than others . If you don’t believe me, Google it.

But then there is quality of life. Time management, if it were possible to manage time, does not address the quality of life but rather the quantity of things to get done. In other words, how much can a person jam in to a 24-hour time period?

Currently, the average American (it is said) is trying to jam in "31 hours of stuff to do into a 24 hour time period." No wonder, we as a society, are losin’ it!

Time management or insanity? You decide.

So what can you do?

On the other side of time, is energy.

You are energy. Energy is you. You are not time. Time is not you.

Depending on a person=E 2s energy levels indicates20on how much time it takes (or does not take) to do the same things. Time is compressed or extended based on a person’s energy levels.

Have you ever been depressed, sick or hung over? Time moves at a snails pace. How much time does it take to do the simplest of task? Have you ever been way too busy running in circles? Where did the time go? Vroom!

What happens to time when you are doing what you love? Or with the one you love? Time goes too quickly. What about when you are counting widgets at work? Time drags on… "Who unplugged the clock?" you might ask.

Time management has duped us. It is at the core of most of our problems.

Energy management is the answer. So what is the question?

The question is: How does a person manage his or her energy levels?

By realizing it is possible. For each person energy management is slightly different. There is one common thread, which connects all of us. We are human beings.

What does a human being need? Here are five basic concepts to get you started:
