How Shall I spend My Time? aka Time Well Spent

Written By Lillian Jones

When I think of time, I think of ‘Me’ time as being critical otherwise there is No ‘Me’!!!

First, knowing what I need / traits to enjoy and maintain participation. Time well-spent on Me provides…

Privacy - Solitude - Healthy

Preferred -- Time well-spent

Why is this your preferred activity?  Using myself as an example,

Swimming/walking  

  • Privacy/single activity, no partner(s) reqd.  I’m in control interaction is not required’ 

  • Don’t have to talk to anyone so I can ignore those trying to talk!

  • Feels good, is good for me

  • Solitude void of people noises, some types of music is fine, otherwise quiet

  • Able to think

Health

  • An enjoyable way to maintain my body

  • Basically,  any activity with similar  benefits

Mental

  • Enjoy being present and engaging with nature

  • View/engage with nature (pictures)

Both of my parents were entrepreneurs. After being pink slipped as a teacher, I ended up at GM headquarters in the diversity office. There I acquired knowledge and skills that enabled me to contract/subcontract as a diversity trainer/facilitator. I was SME at Ford Motor Co., developing the requested workshop, conducting a Train-the-trainer for facilitators of the Discovering Common Ground workshop for salaried/hourly employees. I also created and managed the delivery of an Anger Mgmt. workshop for hourly employees.

I created a Diversity program for students at the GM facility where I was training to provide additional support to their school/job applications. The workshop was equivalent to an 8-hr. business workshop including a workbook and related activities.

The subsequent workbook, My Road Trip Guide for My Personal Journey, contains information collected/saved from teaching, consulting, diversity workshop development, training, quality instructor experience, research, and life.

Everyone has a purpose in life. For me it’s to teach compassion and being able to accept and have a good relationship with others.
