Your Time On Earth
Contributed by Dr. Larry Petton on Oct 15, 2019 (message contributor)
You’re going to spend about 150,000 hours of your life working, which is about 40% of your waking hours. The average American spends 46 hours a week at work. If you’re a professional, you spend an average of 52 hours a week working and if you’re a small business owner/operator you work an average of 57 hours a week. The fact is, you’ll spend more time working, commuting to work and thinking about work than you will eating meals and vacations combined in your whole lifetime. Work is a huge part of our lives.
