Time is a concept and a measure of how long things last. It is evidence of existence. It is philosophical and debatable. In some cultures, the idea of time and quantity as we know it does not exist.

Once famously, Nina Simone said we do everything by the clock, even drink by it, as she spoke in the live album Young, Gifted and Black. Almost every culture understands that there are 365 ¼ days in a calendar year. The days equate to twelve months of 30 or 31 days (February has 28 or 29) and 52 weeks. Each week consists of 7 days, and each day has 24 hours. Each hour consists of 60 minutes, and each minute consists of 60 seconds. We have the academic calendar, the moon cycle, and various other cycles and rotations within the year. However, regardless of the season, rain or storm, work starts and ends at a particular time. The majority of us do this in sync.

How long is a child's attention span?

Why is it important to Study Public Speaking?
Why is it important to Study Public Speaking? Being able to communicate effectively is one of the most valuable life skills someone can have. After all, communication aids in all aspects of life and allows us to form connections, influence decisions, share knowledge and even motivate change. Without excellent communication skills, it’s very difficult to progress in the working world, and even impossible to succeed in a leadership position.

The New Journey Begins
After graduating high school, I did not know what I wanted to do. Times were getting hard and I wanted to see if I could find work so I could pay to go to college but that was hard too. I work for a couple years while waiting to go to college and finally in 2007 my journey started all the way up to 2011. When I got my Associates Degree in Business Information Systems I started trying to find work that was associated with this career field, but it was tough. A year later in 2012, I went back to Sinclair to do the Medical Office Option portion of Business Information Systems and that was a lot of fun! In 2014 I got my certificate, which was my second Associates degree. While looking for a job in that career field, I had been volunteering my time at different hospitals by doing different kinds of tasks ranging from clerical duties to working with kids.
