Monday Morning Mantra - 3/30

Happy Monday to you!

It's still rainy here in Maryland, and it's not even April yet! What's going on?!?!? Anyhoo, my mom told me about the following quote she read on the back of her Starbucks cup this weekend, and it's a great quote about how we spend our time:

"American’s spend an average of 29 hours a week watching television - which means in a typical life span we devote 13 uninterrupted years to our TV sets! The biggest problem with mass media isn’t low quality - it’s high quantity. Cutting down just an hour a day would provide extra years of life - for music and family, exercise and reading, conversation and coffee."

This week, think about how you can spend your time doing things that are most important in the grand scheme of things like hugging your children, calling your mom, writing in your journal, etc.

Have an AMAZING week!

Excellent advice. We probably need to do the same with our computers. Technology is stealing all of our quality time.
