Last Half Hour of Day Is Most Important—Time to Review and Resolve Anew

The most Important period of all your day is the last half hour. That “home stretch,” that silent time when the eyes begin to cloud and the clock must be wound and the cat be put out doors. - For life is a business and a day is significant. Each one of our days is like unto a certain number in the one great column that makes up your life. And every figure must be added —some time. Do you ever stop to consider how great is each figure that you add daily to the great column that is to represent the sum total of what you are to be at the very end? The last half hour! What a time to think things over. To take Invoice. To review. To resolve anew. To determine—and to will. . ' ■ And what a time to dismiss all the little ripples of worry and discontent. And to bury every bitter thought, to resurrect every fine deed done and every useful effort attempted or accomplished. Start tonight to make a chain of your last half hours. And as the years roll on, a new and strange power is sure to accumulate —a sort of reserve strength—an anchor, maybe, that shall keep you from drifting as some unexpected storm sweeps its way toward your frail craft. Also, if you wisely use your last half hour, like as not you may soundly sleep as the storm spends its rage and passes on. —Exchange.
