My 500,000 hours moment

Guess what?

Today, Tuesday, 23rd of July at 7.15 am, 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 traveling (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:

1. Seize the Moment: Make every hour count. Don’t wait for tomorrow.

2. Celebrate SWins (Small Wins): Each hour is a victory.

3. Stay Curious: Keep learning. Your brain loves it.

4. 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.
