Time Compounding/Multi-Purposing
I do my best to do time-compounding or what I call multi-purposing (different than multi-tasking which is like time-slicing) which is goal/objective-driven and not task-driven. Let me explain: In our world, there are 24 hours to a day. We are supposed to sleep a third of that time for good health. A third third of the week day is for working and the other third of the week plus the weekend is left for commuting, chores, errands, as well as recreation, family time, spiritual time, socializing, learning, contributing to society, etc. If we dedicate specific times for each of these, we can't possibly do them all. However, if we align a few of these together by being at the right place at the right time, we can do them all.

For example: While at work, I get to earn a living, I get to learn and work with the latest technologies, I am able to help contribute to the organization's mission (a cancer hospital, which BTW, is aligned to my personal mission of serving others), and I get to socialize with awesome people. If think you are working where your are just to earn a living and nothing else, then you may be missing out on a lot during those hours.
