Moleskin:

We are often busy because of the many priorities, distractions and everything else that demands our time. All of us have 24 hours in a day. Are you effectively using your time?

A way to answer this question is by monitoring your margin. In business, margin is a measure of the resources spent vs the return on the investment. When a business uses their resources  beyond the level of a healthy return, their margin goes into the red.

In life, we must ensure that we don’t go into the red with our time. Keep your priorities distinct and separate. The quality time with your family should not get encroached by non-value added things. People often let technology invade their family time. They are heads down on their phones instead of making quality face-to-face conversations. As a result, they are not present in their daily interactions and this routine pushes them deeper into the red. This one of many examples of why we need to manage our margins.

Keep your priorities. Be present. Keep a healthy margin in your life
