"15 minutes" is 1% of a day


Dear friends,

Did you know "15 minutes" is 1% of a day?
I did not!

I was thinking like 15 minutes as a tiny, insignificant portion of time.
But apparently, it is not (at least for me).

A 15 minute-portion is roughly 1% of 24 hours.
15 / (24 *60) *100 = 1.04 (%)

If we set the denominator to the time of our "active time" instead of 24 hours, it would be much more.
Let's say, 8 hours sleep, 2 hours life chores, and 2 hours meals.

The "active time" would be 12 hours (half!).
15 / ((24 - 8 - 2 -2) *60) *100 = 2.08(%) 

That's totally up to people to see it as a big piece or a small one.
Personally, I changed my mind to see it as a significant amount of time rather than an insignificant one!

What shall we do in the portion?


Love and peace🧡
