Is Time on Your Side?

To have time working for you it is important to be able to see this elusive thing called time. All clocks measure the passage of time, but various styles of clocks display it differently.

A digital clock shows the hours and minutes in a numerical, or digital, format. Digital time displays are found on cell phones, appliances, some alarm clocks and in vehicles.

Analog clocks are those with a dial with numbers or marks that represent the hours of the day.Wall clocks, some alarm clocks and many wristwatches are examples of analog clocks.

Why does it make a difference whether a digital or analog clock is used? Some individuals find that they are more aware of the passage of time when analog clocks are used. There is a suable awareness of the minute hand moving around the clock face that can be related to the passage of time. The spatial relationship of the hands on the clock may be more effective for a person who needs more visual cues in organizing or managing time.

Consider where clocks are placed throughout the workplace and home. Are the clocks in the right places to serve as a reminder of time?

What happens when you become more aware of types of clocks and where they are placed in relation to your needs?
