Using our time wisley is difficult at times because at work, others control at least some of your time.
12 Teach us to number our days, that we may gain a heart of wisdom.
Think about things you want to buy or do in terms of time and not just money. You earn the money you have with your time, so when you blow some money, you are throwing away your time, which is limited.
Live with Eternity in mind
18 So we don’t look at the troubles we can see now; rather, we fix our gaze on things that cannot be seen. For the things we see now will soon be gone, but the things we cannot see will last forever.
We have limited time, so we need to use it wll with eternity in mind.

7. Manage Your Personal Life
7. Manage Your Personal Life
If you do everything right at work, but your personal life is messed up, not only will you be miserable, but you will eventually bring that sourness to the job and sabotage yourself.
Climbing the ladder of success is not worth losing your marriage or your children over.
JM – Success is having those closet to me love and respect me the most.
If you cannot lead yourself, Others wont follow you / respect you / or partner with you.
The Better you are at doing what you should be doing, the better chance you have for making an impact on others
12 “One day I was on such a mission to Damascus, armed with the authority and commission of the leading priests.
13 About noon, Your Majesty, as I was on the road, a light from heaven brighter than the sun shone down on me and my companions.
14 We all fell down, and I heard a voice saying to me in Aramaic, ‘Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting me? It is useless for you to fight against my will.’
15 “ ‘Who are you, lord?’ I asked. “And the Lord replied, ‘I am Jesus, the one you are persecuting.
16 Now get to your feet! For I have appeared to you to appoint you as my servant and witness. Tell people that you have seen me, and tell them what I will show you in the future.
17 And I will rescue you from both your own people and the Gentiles. Yes, I am sending you to the Gentiles
18 to open their eyes, so they may turn from darkness to light and from the power of Satan to God. Then they will receive forgiveness for their sins and be given a place among God’s people, who are set apart by faith in me.’
19 “And so, King Agrippa, I obeyed that vision from heaven.
20 I preached first to those in Damascus, then in Jerusalem and throughout all Judea, and also to the Gentiles, that all must repent of their sins and turn to God—and prove they have changed by the good things they do.
21 Some Jews arrested me in the Temple for preaching this, and they tried to kill me.
22 But God has protected me right up to this present time so I can testify to everyone, from the least to the greatest. I teach nothing except what the prophets and Moses said would happen—
23 that the Messiah would suffer and be the first to rise from the dead, and in this way announce God’s light to Jews and Gentiles alike.”
24 Suddenly, Festus shouted, “Paul, you are insane. Too much study has made you crazy!”
25 But Paul replied, “I am not insane, Most Excellent Festus. What I am saying is the sober truth.
26 And King Agrippa knows about these things. I speak boldly, for I am sure these events are all familiar to him, for they were not done in a corner!
27 King Agrippa, do you believe the prophets? I know you do—”
28 Agrippa interrupted him. “Do you think you can persuade me to become a Christian so quickly?”
29 Paul replied, “Whether quickly or not, I pray to God that both you and everyone here in this audience might become the same as I am, except for these chains.”
Paul had enormous credibility because of the life he lived. He weighed his words carefully because leaders influence people with their words. When Paul stood before King Agrippa and was asked to defend himself, he was able to do that because of credibility of his life.
Paul was willing for his life to be on display.
Paul Modeled a life fully surrendered to the Lord
He encouraged everyone to follow his example.
He sacrificed for the sake of others.
He gave himself fully to the work of the Lord.
How are you leading yourself in these area
