I really like how you put it, &#8220;time is a great equalizer; it does not discriminate based on wealth or educational level&#8221; (Shergill, 2017). How true that is! I am always in awe of how much some people are able to do and it is necessary to remind myself every so often that we are all gifted the same number of hours each day!<\/p>\n<p>Recently, with the start of my first two online courses for my MAEL, I am becoming overwhelmed with finding the time to complete all the assignments and tasks each week. Between working full-time, doing coursework, and planning for the arrival of our baby, I find I have no time to do things I used to enjoy doing such as seeing my friends or spending time with my husband. Your post and Bennett&#8217;s article (as cited in Watson, 1988) has reminded me that I need to be more purposeful and diligent with my time.<\/p>\n<p>Thank you for the reminder, Simarjit!<\/p>\n<p><strong>References<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Shergill, S.
