In Radio, the Air Personality (ie. DJ) has to move quickly.

The average song: 3:30.

What can you cram into Three minutes, Thirty Seconds?

Talk to a listener, check out the weather on the net, watch a couple seconds of the latest breaking news on the studio tv, edit a phone call, determine the length of the intro of the next song, talk to the sales staff member who just walked in (they really shouldn’t be there), grab a swallow of Diet Coke, put the headphones on, crack the mic and … speak.

I was always so surprised how much I could do in such a short amount of time.

What can you do for your Husband or Wife in the next Three Minutes, Thirty Seconds?

1. Text them to tell them you love them

2. Send them a quick email

3. Give Them a Kiss

4. Make a List of Things You Love About Them

5. Share Your List With Them

6. Quick Neck Rub

7. Take out the Trash

8. Foot Massage

9. Neck Massage

10. Sweep the Kitchen Floor

11. Write Them a Poem

12. Find “Your” Song on the Internet and Download it to Share with Them

13. Find Something Sexy to Wear for Him

14. Shave and Brush your Teeth for Her

15. Plan your Weekend Getaway

16. Plan Your Weekly Date(You do Still Date each other…right?)

Think about this: Taking loving actions leads to loving feelings.

Go do it: Take the Next 3:30 and do something loving for your honey.

  • This is a really good way to think about! Good Post!

    (In the length of a song, we can do something tho7thoughtful for our spouse that can make them feel loved.)
  • Robin - Great way to sum it up in one sentence! Boy, you should blog or something! lol
  • TMB ~

    LUV this because love it's a great reminder that showing someone love doesn't have to involve copious amounts of available time or be a big production which is wear I think a lot of people get hung up and push this very important act to the back burner.

    Thanks for the reminder...think I'll go give my BHE (BEST Husband Ever) a neck rub!

  • Hey Annalea - Absolutely. Use the little moments. That way the loving actions become part of what you do - and you don't get a roadblock set in your head about "oh I have to do something HUGE" to show my love!!
