A "Selfie" Of Your Time Management

Selfies are everywhere! These self made photos of people doing everything from standing with a best friend to kayaking down a river blindfolded (just wait) are appearing at the rate of one million per day... and that's the ones we know about. According to an infographic at stylecaster.com, here are some other interesting facts about these portraits:

• They make up 30% of the photos taken by people 18-24 years of age
• Selfies are more popular in Australia than any country in the world. Second is Canada and third is the United States
• 34% of males state that they retouch their selfies while only 14% of females make changes to their selfies before posting

Even world leaders, including President Obama and Pope Francis have snapped pictures of themselves! The picture at the top of this post is one of my favorite selfies, taken with my younger daughter.

All this interest in selfies makes me wonder what a quick and spontaneous "snapshot" of how we are managing our time would look. Would yours:

• Show you spending time working on our highest priorities, or just switching from one task to another to get through the day?
• Be more likely to be taken with a friend or loved one... or alone because you keep rationalizing you will have time for them later?
• Be a generally fuzzy picture because you aren't sharpening our focus on 3-4 key tasks each day?
• Reflect a celebration because you stayed focused on that complex assignment and finally finished it?
• Have you looking exhausted and anxious because you keep denying yourself much needed rest?
• Be snapped in a spot where you are taking some time for solitude and reflection instead of always trying to cram more and more into each day?
• Show your children or significant other looking longingly out a door or window or be a snap of them running toward you with a HUGE smile and outstretched arms?
• Include your phone, tablet, or computer screen showing your 30th post to social media today?

What would your selfie reveal about how you are managing your time?
