∞ x 10 = Too Much

I just bought a new work-out DVD by Marisa Tomei which includes a 10-minute workout designed by Key Son. He designed this workout because many of his clients need to keep in shape but are short of time.

This workout is for me because I am always short of time! I work a full-time job, look after the house, the kid, the pets, the car and myself. I can consider myself an expert in making real progress on any subject in a matter of ten minutes.

I can cook a meal, hem a pair of pants and wash my hair or my dog. I can clean the bathroom, wash the car or plan a week’s menu in ten minutes. What can you do in ten minutes?

The problem is that the list of the basic & necessary ten minutes chores is infinite. So, no matter how efficient I am, the day is not long enough. So, here I present to you a list of solutions all of which require some type of sacrifice. Which one would you pick?

Suggestion #1
Hire someone to do the cooking & cleaning for you.
- A financial sacrifice but well worth it if they’ll do the menu planning and the grocery shopping as well.

Suggestion #2
Remove some of the items from the necessary list.
- This requires changing those priorities; but which ones? Cooking so we can eat right or washing the clothes?

Suggestion #3
Ask Key Son to design a 30-hour day.
- This only means more work so perhaps I will consider #4.

Suggestion #4
Just keep complaining that you are always short of time.
- My pick!
