Whit's Wisdom

Always allow yourself 30 extra minutes for each and everything you do.  You never know when 'LIFE' is going to happen. 

Cooking a big dinner for family/friends/potential clients?  30 extra minutes could mean running back to the store for the butter that you just KNEW was in the back of the refrigerator.

Plenty of time to get to your Granddaughter's graduation?  30 extra minutes could get you there BEFORE all the other 500 grandparents who are sitting in the traffic jam....thinking they had plenty of time too.

Asking the Boss for a raise today?  30 extra minutes gives you just enough time to dash back home AFTER the baby just spit up her breakfast on your best suit.

Ever sit in a meeting/classroom/Dentist chair and have your stomach rumbling like Phil Collins playing a drum solo?  Yup - 30 minutes would have allowed plenty of time to eat breakfast.

30 minutes seems like an extraordinary amount of time to allow for each and every activity in your life...until you NEED it and don't have it!

Just like you build a cushion in your bank account for emergencies only (if you don't -shame on you!) - build a time cushion in your life for emergencies too!
