No matter how busy we think we are, we all have moments of idleness when we are standing in line, stuck in traffic, or simply in between tasks. Here are three things that I do to make the most of a few minutes here and there:
1) Read
I generally keep a book with me wherever I go—usually something fairly light that I can easily pick up and read a few pages. I have found that books with short chapters, leadership books, and humorous books are the best in these instances.
2) Prayer / Reflection / Journaling
While I believe most of these activities are best maintained in focused and intentional moments, they can be an awesome way to spend a little extra time as well.
3) Social Networking
Like anything else, social networking in excess can be a bad habit. However, I find that idle time is the ideal time to check up on tweets or facebook statuses.
What do you do to make use of those idle moments that occur sporadically?
