Guess what? Today, Tuesday, 23rd July at 7.15am, I’ve celebrated a massive milestone.
I’m 500,000 hours old!
Yes, you read
that right – half a million hours of life.
Doesn’t that sound incredible?
500,000 hours. That’s 30 million minutes. Over 1.8 billion seconds.
It’s a fun fact that happens about 2 weeks after you become 57.
We don’t usually think about time like this, but it’s a brilliant way to reflect on life.
Let’s break it down:
If you sleep 8 hours a day, that’s about 166,666 hours snoozing. That’s nearly 19 years asleep! Or for me 22 years 😴 I love my bed.
The average person works around 90,000 hours in their lifetime. That’s a lot of time spent building, creating, and contributing. For me, that feels like 150,000 hours 💪🏼 I love my work.
We spend roughly 32,000 hours eating. Yum! Easy 😋 Yep, love my food.
And over 10,000 hours laughing – smashed that 😂 Love to laugh!
6,000 hours of learning. Really? I could do that in a week – don’t love maths 🧮
4,000 hours travelling (without daily commutes) and I know I’ve smashed that, love to travel. 🧳 🚂
Every hour counts. Every moment matters.
This milestone isn’t just about the numbers. It’s about celebrating life.
Your life.
Our lives.
Each hour brings new experiences, challenges, and joys.
Take a moment to think about your hours.
What have you achieved?
What are you grateful for?
What’s next?
4 things to consider during this
hour.
Seize the Moment: Make every hour count. Don’t wait for tomorrow.
Celebrate SWins (Small Wins): Each hour is a
victory.
Stay Curious: Keep learning. Your brain loves it.
Love Fiercely: Spend time with those who matter.
Thank you for being part of my journey. Here’s to many more hours of joy, success and adventure.
