Here we are, February 28th – and yes, tomorrow will not be March 1st, it will be February 29th. That only happens once every four years, in years divisible by 4, such as 1988, 1996 and 2008. That’s because a complete revolution around the sun takes approximately 365 days and 6 hours. So every four years, we’ve accumulated an extra 24 hours that we have to get rid of to stay on track with the calendar.
Get rid of it – or see it as an incredible opportunity? What do you do with an entire day that is out of the ordinary – and extra bonus? This week Robert and Tonya Harris won $275 million in the Georgia lottery. With the unexpected money, will they invest in something meaningful or simply spend it? Okay, maybe you won’t win the lottery but you are definitely getting all 24 hours of an extra day on February 29th. Are you going to invest it or spend it? Here’s the time you’ve been looking for to read that great book. Or that’s enough time to fully develop your business plan to take you to a new level of success.
Incidentally the first thing Robert did was quit his job so he could “live happily.” Now there’s a hot topic for another day!
