Time consciousness and working on improvements knows no limits. A friend of ours has taken it to new heights and believe it or not, has worked on his shaving time in the morning.

He figured that he takes about 5 minutes every morning in front of the mirror. So he practiced for half an hour and perfected the art of shaving with two razors (one in either hand) simultaneously. Therefore, he could cut down 2 minutes per day! And in one month, the learning time was also recovered. Now, for the rest of his life, he had two extra minutes per day!

He is so meticulous that his appointments are marked in minutes, 8 minutes for X, 3 for Y, 43 for Z and so on. Also his accounts are equally clear including tips paid and tea and coffee bought for friends that he is sure will not be returned. Those that will be are noted as money spent but those who may not return the favour, is “written off”.

Don’t get me wrong, he is a very fine person. He can be very humorous as well as very serious, but, everything must be accounted for and improved upon!
