Time flies. It’s cliche, yet true. Last week I talked about resolutions but now I’m going to chat about that thing that tends to get in the way of those precious goals: time. As we take a break from our normal routine to celebrate the new year, the amount of changes that we believe we can achieve in the upcoming months seems endless. Yet then we get back to the daily grind and time seems to fly
right past us. Next thing you know, it’s June and you have not achieved one thing on your list. That’s why this year, I think that there is no better purchase than a beautiful clock to remind me to use my time valuably. Here are a few options that range from strictly utilitarian to pieces of art, like this stunning piece by Studio Ve (above). Like it as much as I do? Feel free to donate to their Kickstarter page!
