Lesson Overview

14.21 – Understanding How Long Things Actually Take: Many people underestimate how long daily tasks require, leading to constant lateness and stress. Tracking real time spent on activities builds accurate awareness. Use a timer or phone stopwatch for a few days to record how long typical routines—like showers, meals, or travel—really last. You may discover a 10-minute task often takes 25. Knowing this allows for realistic scheduling and prevents overloading your day. Learning time awareness builds patience and reliability. It also helps structure recovery breaks more wisely. When you plan based on truth instead of assumption, life feels smoother and calmer. Estimating well takes practice, but it pays off in independence and confidence. Accurate timing strengthens trust between you and others, proving that you value both your commitments and their time equally.
