Have you ever wished there were more hours in a day? Have you ever wished we had more than 24 hours in a day? If you saw a genie lamp, do you know one of the things you would wish for is to have more than 24 hours in a day? Sometimes, life comes at you so fast that you hope you have more time to relax and enjoy the beauties of life. Sometimes, people say, “I wish I had more time to spend with you, but I have to do this and that.” People, particular job workers who work from morning till night and come back only to rest for a few hours before going back the next morning, would definitely wish they had more time to rest. Of course, if we had more time, things would definitely be different than they are now. Depending on how we use the time, our day can turn out more productive or less productive.
Like many people out there, I have also wished many times that there were more than 24 hours in a day. On days when I go to school from morning till night, then pull off an all nighter until 3 am. On those days, I have less than 2 hours to rest, then about two hours to revise. On those days, I always wish I could freeze the hands of time and sleep for as many hours as I want. I remember the day I felt sleepy in an exam hall because I hadn't slept for about two days. If I had extra hours, I would use them to do the things I try to do b. This brings me to this week’s Hive Naija prompt. If 12 more hours were added to the current 24 hours every day, what new activities would you add to your day. Will it make you more productive or slow down your productivity rate?
If 12 hours were added to the current 24 hours, I would use those hours efficiently. That means I would have more hours to do things I couldn't do due to lack of time. One thing that tops the list is to sleep more. Ever since I got into the university, one part of me that has suffered the most is my sleep life. A lot of hindrances have been disrupting me from having good sleep. From back to back classes, to assignments and presentations I have to work on (these were the factors that disrupted things in my first and second year.) in my third year, other factors came in, like work—engaging and posting on Hive. Chatting with friends and watching anime also makes me sleep late. If 12 hours were added to the current 24 hours, I would have more time to sleep well.
Another activity I would add to my day is exercising or going to the gym. I've always wanted to maintain a fit body. But how do you expect me to do this when I don't even have enough time for myself? I remember when I started exercising every day. I installed an app on my phone and was consistent for a while, but things changed when I got into university. Now, I have other things to do. More important and time-consuming things. If 12 hours were added to the current 24 hours, I would definitely have more time to exercise well.
Also, I would have more time to spend with my loved ones, especially @hopestylist. Sometimes, we get so busy with life and its challenges that it becomes difficult to make time for our loved ones. 12 hours is a lot and I'm sure if I had 12 more hours, I would use it well. It would definitely make me more productive.
