Introduction
"You may delay, but Time will not." Benjamin Franklin, American statesman and philosopher
I'm looking at my watch. It's 8:38 on a Friday morning. By my calculations, I have only approximately 204,400 waking hours of life left. And I intend to make the most of the time still available to me. How about you?
Today, the demands on our time are tremendous. Everyone has too much to do and not enough time to do it. According to an article in Men's Health magazine (March, 1997), 42 percent of American workers believe they are overloaded with work.
We live in the Age of Now. Customers are more demanding than ever. They want everything yesterday. As Miami Herald columnist Leonard Pitts comments, "We move faster than ever, but never quite fast enough." (The Record, October 27, 1997)
"When our society travels at electronic speed, we fall under the sway of a new force...the power of now," says Stephen Bertman, a professor at the University of Windsor, in the article
Page 10
"Stephen Bertman on Hyperculture." (Future Times, Fall, 1998). "It replaces duration with immediacy, permanence with transcience, memory with sensation, insight with impulse." He argues that this acceleration of change contributes to "a growing sense of stress, disorientation, and loss." On the other hand, if you master strategies for coping with today's accelerated pace, you can meet the demands placed upon you while still having time for yourself.
