I have always been curious about the 'rule' 1 day = 24 hours. I know this is for our Earth planet, and other planets have their own hours per day. But, as this is Earth, our planet, and we have 24 hours per day, how do you feel about it? For some people, 24 hours per day are still not enough to finish their work / plan / deadline. For some others, either they have no opinion ... or 24 hours are enough or so-so. For the remaining, they might feel 24 hours per day are too much. So, do you think that 24 hours per day are enough for you, or not enough for you, or even too much for you? And why? Please share your thought.

24 hours for me is enough for one day. In this 24 hours I can do all the stuff that I need to do. if there is another hour in excess of the 24 that we are provided, i would probably spend that spare hour doing nothing. if there would be one hour less that the 24 that we are provided, I might have problems on how to manage my time thhe next day. For the past 18 years of my life, i am living an ordinary and quite routinary life. that's why everything must be schedule and prepared beforehand so I can manage my time well.

@bongkarpasang For me it depends on the situation. When I have to complete assignments I feel it is not enough. While when I have attend lectures all day long,I feel day is too long. When we are on holidays we wonder ,how come days are flying so fast? While on working days we feel why the days are so long. Although the day is same everyday i.e. 24 hrs It depends on our mental state.If we are happy we won't know how the time passed.While when we have nothing to do,or when we don't like to do certain thing we will think time is passing very slowly.

Twenty four hours is long enough for most but there are some who would like more because there is not enough hours in the day for them. But there is nothing we can do to change the hours to more in a day as the earth revolves in those twenty four hours at one thousand miles an hour with the circumference being twenty four thousand miles. Day turns into night and then back to day relentlesly. Have a great life from Deeeky.

Hi! For me, it depends if I am busy or not and if I have something to finish in time or a deadline to meet. I have noticed that there would be times that I wanted to stop the time just to get through the stuffs that I need to do. But otherwise if I am bored and got nothing to do, I would want the 24 hours to go by faster.

Not enought for me but i can have my own free time too. Its cool that on some planets have their own number of hours a day. It must be funny to live there. I wish we will abe to travel acros the space and visit planets all over the space. :D Our planet is too small for our population. And the china inhabitans will infest the world but they will firstly go thru russia.

yeah you do have a point there. for me it's sooo not enough. i wish that the sun would shine more longer though... so that i could do more stuff in one day. because when it is night time i don't feel so productive anymore.

1 day = 24 hours would be not enough to the people who have lots of activities and business in their days. they should do many things in just 24 hours and honestly when i was on those condition, 24 hours in a day is not enough at all but there was also time when we don't have so many activities so we just spend our time in daily just by regular activities. on that situation, we would feel that 24 hours in a day is long time to go through

Someitmes I feel that the 24 hours per day is just not enough especially when I have lots of deadlines to get to and maybe there are lots of things to do on my list. This 24 hours being not enough is so obvious when you're having fun. Dont you notice it? when you're having fun the day jsut slips by you and you didnt even notice that the day or the whole 24 hours is already over and that you just dont want it to end. For me though, when living life from day to day I feel that 24 hours is enough to do thigns and live life. This is because I dont have that much things to do and so I get to enjoy and be aware of the 24 hours. But when it comes to the months and years though, thats the thing that I find are very fast moving. Its like you didnt even notice that its already 2008! because I still remember and still think about 2006 and maybe even 1998. when it comes to the years and the months time always seems to pass by quickly but when it comes to minutes and teh hours like 24 hours as you say, we really feel it and experience it because we are living it.
