It’s important to check your resources regularly. Keep a diary or a planner so that you know how much time you have. Go to the doctor for regular check-ups. Check your bank balance – a task that is far easier in these days of online banking than it was in the pre-internet era. Check that you have enough petrol.
Now it’s good enough to check these things often; you don’t have to do them constantly. For some other matters, it’s important to have a continual awareness. For instance, if you’re diabetic, it might be necessary to continually measure your blood glucose levels. If you’re waiting for an important call from a job application, you want to be able to answer the phone when it rings if possible, rather than call someone back after they leave a message. If you’re driving, you need to frequently check your rear vision mirror.
It’s important not to check things less often than you need to, and that’s a mistake a lot of people make with their tyre pressure. They consider it as a once in a while thing, but – especially if you enjoy cross-country travel – it’s better to have a tyre pressure monitoring system. The system includes tyre sensors that continuously measure the air pressure inside your tyres, and let you know if it’s outside the optimal range. With a TPMS in your car, there isn’t any risk of you forgetting to monitor your tyre pressure because your life gets too busy. The system will do that job for you, giving you peace of mind and one less problem in this busy world that is constantly requiring your attention. And when you need to fix your tyre pressure, you’ll know right away, rather than waiting until the next time you check, so you’ll be able to do something about it before your tyres wear out and you waste petrol.
