I'm doing some planning for my
100 day challenge to write 100 articles in 100 days, and I now realize that when they call it a "100-day challenge", they mean 100
calendar days (7 Feb to 16 May) - not 100 weekdays. EEEK!
I guess it makes sense - as a solopreneur, my "business" is actually my "life" - a life project, integrated into who I am and what I do. I'm on duty 24/7 (or is that 27/8?) Why?
That means if I miss a day, that day is gone... I have to work twice as hard to catch up. Miss two days in a row, I have to work three times as hard...
No wonder sometimes people feel overwhelmed because their "to do" list never gets "ta done".
Moral of the story: Time does not wait until things are "convenient"
Bonus moral of the story: Money is flexible, you can always generate or find more. Time is inflexible, once you've spent a minute, you can never replace it.
And extra bonus: don't let things pile up because it gets harder and harder to catch up. Just like mortgage payments...
From the time calculator at
www.timeanddate.com:
From and including: Thursday, February 7, 2008
To and including: Friday, May 16, 2008
It is 100 days from the start date to the end date, end date included
Or 3 months, 10 days including the end date
100 days can be converted to one of these units:- 8,640,000 seconds
- 144,000 minutes
- 2400 hours
- 14 weeks (rounded down)
And as sayeth ol' Benjamin Franklin:
" Never leave that till to-morrow which you can do to-day."
