“Tick Tock … Tick Tock …”
Your time is limited.
You only have 168 hours in a week.
Each week. Each month. Each year.
Some are for sleep …
Some are for work …
Some are for play …
Some are for “your time” …
Your 168 hours can get interrupted and ambushed.
By events.
By others.
By you.
What you choose to do with them is your choice.
To reclaim them, it’s called prioritizing.
And saying NO to the tentacles that can entangle you with misdirects.


Dr. Judith Briles started writing notes to her classmates in first grade … and got into “disruptive trouble” from her teachers. She’s now the author of 49 books and counting, still being a disrupter. Her books have won over 57 book awards and been Amazon bestsellers. You can follow her professional side at www.TheBookShepherd.com where she works with writers to become published authors.
