Did you see that 24 hours of day is so little to finish everthing you must to do and at the end of the day you have many things to finish at very small time?Or the day seems to long to finish you bored and try find things to complete you free time?

It depends on what I have scheduled to do that day. Some days fly by and I wonder where the time went. Like on the weekends when I am out running errands and know that I still have to clean the bathrooms when I get home!
Other times the day drags on. Days like that I find myself looking at the clock too many times.

do you remember the famous motto of James Bond? It states WORLD IS NOT ENOUGH...well for me...a day is not enough...there are always so many things to do and time is never enough...for example...I start planning what I have to do but I seem to be always too optimistic..I never manage to end the day doing everything I would in the morning..anyway looking at my schedule, I push too hard over me!!!! but the fact is that I do lots of things at the same time and I have to follow them while developing...I mean ..there are experiments, research projects, ambulatory visits, patients in the department unit, visits I make in a rehabilitation unit, and then the new clinic I am in charge of..then then there is the need of studyin everyday to keep in contact with latest medical knowledge, and then...then there is my home, doing the shopping, going to the laundry and putting in order and then then there are my hobbies....the gym, the dancing school, writing, my lot....ok I can stop and sit here for a while and then ..then I have to run...it is a beautiful sunny day and I want to go out for a walk and there are lot of things to do before!!!!! Have a nice day

Well, 24 hours is too short for me. There are so many things to do. I wish I could work longer but we need to rest too. Sometimes, I can't sleep as it seems I haven't done all the things that I wanted to do during the day.

Yes, 24 hours is very short. That is why time flies so much. there are alot of things to do in a day and yet you cannot accomplish all of them. that is why a day is very short. When i have a deadline to beat, time is usually fast and it seems you wont finish your work on time. I think everyday passes by fast and you'll never notice that 1 year has already passed. A day is long when you are waiting for someone to arrive and often look at clock. It seems it is never ending and he/she will not arrive. It really depends on the situation. It's a very long day especially if you are in a panel interview or the like.That is why they often say that it is gonna be along day for me. Goodluck!

Hi again Aidonia, interesting post!
I used to think that 24-hour was not enough when excitement so high and that 24-hour was too long of a day when griefs were knocking on my door. It's a bit different now. The God with immeasurable wisdom will not make my 24-hour either too long or too short. It will be JUST RIGHT. Like He said that there is always time for everything. To say that 24-hour a day is not enough is like to say that God is not wise enough. When we actually the ones who do not make use of that day wisely...=)

If a person has a busy life with a lot to do, then 24 hours is not enough to finish everything. If they have a slow life, not much to do, then 24 hours is long enough.

If I could utilize the whole 24 hours ina day there would be enough time to do it all. But since I have to sleep at least 8 of those hours and work 8 of them, there is not much time left for me to complete everything. Maybe we all just try to do too much. The days speed by for me and I never complete everything but I try.

I used to think 24 hours was a long time for a day to end before the birth of my nephew. I would have been much happy with 18 or even less. I even thought they even give too much time for exams (2 hours). But now after my nephew was born I don't think even 30 hours would be enough. I have to work and spent time with him. It seems to me that I could enjoy each day more if they were a little longer than the usual. Talk about change of perspective.Regards

there does not seem to be enough hours in a day to do everything that i have to do, it is necessary to plan a timetable even if you are just at home to make sure it all gets done.

I think that 24 hours is not enough for me, as I have a normal day time job, if i take account into the time of travelling, I will have 10 hours work everyday, and plus the time for taking shower and brushing my teeth which take me one hour or so, and then if i have to cook by myself sometimes, I will have much less time asI need long time to prepare food and clean after I finish the meal, so altogether I will only have two or three hours left assume that I will sleep for eight hours, now the time have been allocated to mylot only, and nothing wlse..lol.

well, 24 hours a day really sometimes for me if i have a lot of things to do is pretty short. i mean, most of the time, i am not able to finish everything that i plan to do for the whole day!... and wish that i have 2 bodies for the other one to work for the other things to do so that i' be able to finish everything.

We all can't deny the fact that a day is only 24-hours and niether it can be extended nor it can be curtailed. For those who live thier life without any schedule, a day may seem either short or long to them depending upon the good or bad time they had on the day under consideration. On the contrary, for the people who are a better time-managers and can utilize their day with a lucrative schedule, a day of just 24-hours may always seem quite short to them.
