Automobile University
I was listening to a recording of motivational speaker Zig Ziglar and he mentioned the term ‘Automobile University’. This he said is using the time you spend sitting in traffic to acheive something useful such as learning a new skill. In Dublin it is not uncommon for people to spend 10-20 hours each week in their cars commuting too and from work. This is comparative to the number of hours that a 3rd level student will spend in lectures.
So why not reclaim some of this wasted travelling time and rather than listening to some DJ babble on use the time to improve yourself or learn a new skill? These days you can quickly and easily download seminars or other training materials from the web in MP3 format and listen to it on an MP3 player.
If you were to do this for just 5 hours per week then in a years time you could have covered around 250 hours of material, which is sure to help you improve and grow in whatever area you wish.
Here are some great resources to get you started:
