Directions
Assume that when you return to work, you receive some “good” news and some “bad” news. The “bad” news is that they have abolished your job - you are being laid off. The “good” news is that they have not abolished your salary - you will continue to receive your paycheck for the next thirty years.
Your task now is to figure out what you will do with your time. What tasks will now fill the eight hours every day that your job filled in the past?
So, sort the deck of activity cards into the five categories according to what you will like to do with your time.
