What you want to happen in the future should impact how you spend your time in the present moment. If you want to arrive at your goal or destination, you have to plan your time accordingly. Those who are “future” oriented point out that what happens in this moment impacts what can happen in the future. ![]() Don’t trade away this moment because you’re worried about the future, you’ll never get it back. For those who are “present” focused, the only moment that matters is now. ![]() The second distinction they note is between those who are present- or future-oriented. (It’s worth noting that this isn’t just personality based, it’s also culturally influenced!) They tend to be punctual (three o’clock means 2:55), and five minutes means five minutes. Objective people don’t “feel” time, they know it. “I’ll be ready in ten minutes” could mean up to a half hour. Subjective people “feel” time, and they speak in broad estimates. The first distinction they make is between “subjective” and “objective” approaches to time. (And this applies to all of us, in relationships besides marriage!) But my favorite part of the book when they discuss the idea that all of us have different “orientations” when it comes to time. But today, we want to zoom in on the minute moment, the grains of sand within the hourglass of time, and ask how do we maximize each and every one.Ī number of years ago, I read a book by Les & Leslie Parrott entitled “Saving Your Time-Starved Marriage.” It’s a great book for those of us who are always on the go, and find that we give our core relationships the “leftover crumbs” of our attention. Last week, we talked about “measuring your days”-being aware of passing of time, and appreciating the lessons and gifts that can only unfold over time. And when you think about it, most of these songs aren’t just about the passing of time, but about capturing time-appreciating and cherishing the moment, because it won’t last forever. But do you ever wonder why so many people sing and write poetry about time? Because time is precious. I’m sure, if you think about it, you could add some favorite songs and artists that we missed. Now, I hope you had fun taking that trip down memory lane. You all know it… Īnd lastly, we can’t do a series on Time without hearing a little Cyndi Lauper! Now I don’t know who sang this next song, but I know who danced it: Patrick Swayze and Jennifer Grey. OK, how about Cher? įor those of you who may have graduated high school or college when I did, name this time-related classic from Green Day: Let’s start with a little hit by Jim Croce… I’m going to say the name of an artist, and you shout it out if you know the song (keep your masks on if you shout!). ![]() But if you think about it, there are lots of songs in our culture that have to do with time. We started off the service with Frank singing “To every season Turn!” by the Byrds. Well, this is the second week in our series “Off the Clock,” a reflection on a Christian understanding of time.

Even that generates some uncertainty, because I’ve seen Copilot in Bing deliver wrong answers. Besides, with your Microsoft account and Edge, you can play around with Copilot at low risk. However, Microsoft’s icon for Copilot still includes the “PRE” badge, which in effect signals that we’re all still beta testers for a Copilot preview. It’s obvious that putting the guts of AI support into the operating system is inevitable, because Microsoft’s apps are rapidly evolving to include Copilot. I’m not sure I understand why Copilot needed to be so deeply embedded in Windows, at least right now.

Fortunately, “show desktop” can be re-enabled. Now while I can understand moving the Copilot to be more consistent, messing with my “show desktop” button is not cool. Turns out that in the dev release of 11 they are moving it to the right and turning off the show desktop button. I was wondering why on Windows 10 the Copilot icon is in the right, but on Windows 11 it’s on the left. But I don’t recommend that you do it on your daily workhorse, rather on a spare machine or even a virtual one. Even in a business setting I try to keep an eye on things that are coming. Now IF you have a spare computer and even IF you LIKE previews and bugs more than usual you can keep an eye on and even install insider versions on your test machines. As we know, Copilot code will be included in the December Windows 10 updates. I’ve updated the Master patch list for the Windows 10 and 11 preview releases that Microsoft came out with last week. But I DO review what is in the previews to see what’s coming ahead. Just a reminder that in my philosophy of “business style patching”, I don’t recommend preview releases on machine you use on a day to day basis.

Simmons’ passion for Cardhop for iOS was bursting, and it’s easy to see the care poured into the app. Simmons really drove home this last point in our conversation. And where Contacts hides arguably the most important section of a contact card - notes - Cardhop brings individual contact notes front and center. Where Contacts makes creating a new contact card the most difficult task on iOS, Cardhop can create an entire contact card from a QR code.

This was one of the aspects Michael Simmons pointed out to me in a phone call recently. I am very unlikely to try a third-party phone app, after all.

There are several ways you can “test” yourself and gain the same benefits. Besides revealing gaps in knowledge and reducing exam anxiety, being tested makes us retrieve information from memory-a powerful, study-backed way of holding onto information we’ve learned. Tests and practice tests have been long seen as useful tools to help students learn and retain information. If you have a group study session, set a goal the group will work towards and take periodic breaks as you would studying by yourself. Even explaining difficult concepts to others can help with comprehension and retention. Group members can help one another work through difficult problems, provide encouragement, hold each other accountable to studying goals, provide different perspectives, and make studying more enjoyable. There are several benefits to forming a study group. Bigger rewards for a long day of studying or getting done with an exam can include getting your favorite meal, spending some time relaxing with friends, or making time for your favorite activity.

Study with a friend: Sometimes studying with a friend or two, whether or not you’re working on the same material, can help keep you accountable and focused. You might also try a focus app, like Forest or Focus To-Do, that can block distracting apps and set timers for study sessions. Turning off your notifications, keeping your phone out of sight in your bag, or giving it to a friend to keep you from checking it too often can help you stay focused.
