"If time were not an obstacle, I would.."

I attended a 5-day class last week and one of the topics discussed was time management. We were asked to do an exercise wherein we would complete the sentence, “If time were not an obstacle, I would…”

I would like to share with you my answers. If time was not an obstacle, some day I would…

• travel around the world
  
• spend more quality time with family and friends
  
• go to the driving range and practice more often until I can beat Tiger Woods
  
• learn a new skill – study graphic design, painting, or cooking
  
• bake cakes and cookies to give to family and friends
  
• keep in touch with friends I lost contact with
  
• go to the gym more often and exercise until I become as sexy as Tyra Banks
  
• visit my Amma Adams and keep her company
  

I was surprised that I came up with a long list.  I could have gone on and listed more things to do if it weren't for the limited space that the paper alloted. There were a lot of things that I wanted to do. I haven’t given much thought about it not until I was actually asked to sit down and really think about it. I just realized that most of my days are spent on what I need to do. I kinda have forgotten that I also want to do a lot of things. Emphasis on the WANT. Hehe But then even if I do have the extra time, I think I might just spend it on the non-developmental or not so “enriching” activities instead such as bumming around where I could finish watching all the tv shows (Prison Break anyone? Hehe) that are fast piling up in my laptop. That’s just one example. I could think of more but I don’t want to indulge myself too much. I don’t think I’ll ever have enough time and resources, not until I turn 90 years old anyway.
