A talk on treating your time like money to stay productive and protect your mental health. The speaker argues that valuing each day as a finite resource changes how you spend it, and this mindset should be taught in schools.
You have 14, 40 minutes a day. 60 minutes times 24. 440 of those minutes, you're sleeping or, you know, seeing your family, eating, you know, living your life. And then you get a thousand minutes to be productive. Some people have less. Some people have three jobs, Some people have six kids. Everyone's different. Some people have more, some people are 22. But on average, you have about a thousand minutes. So I think about my time in terms of dollars. So my thousand minutes are actually every single day, I wake up with $1,000 of time, and. And I don't want to waste it. So if someone's yelling at me or screaming at me and they're upset about this for 15 minutes, I'm not going to throw out $985 because, oh, they ruined my day. And it really, really helped me in terms of, like, keeping me at an equilibrium for my mental health, understanding that your time is your most valuable asset. And I try not to be a psychopath about it. It's really just me setting across really specific expectations for how I want to use my time.
