'Improve the shining hour' nghĩa là tối đa hóa năng suất; tận dụng tốt nhất thời gian của mình/ai đó.

Ví dụ
One of the world’s greatest playwrights (người viết kịch, nhà soạn kịch), Tom Stoppard, said, “He is a giver. He’s good at comfort and joy. He’s good at improving the shining hour and brightening the dark one, and, of course, he’s superlative fun…To me he is the best of America.”

Speaking ahead of MS* Awareness Week (April 23-29), she said: “A dear old cousin used to say you had to make the most of the shining hour and that’s what I have always intended to do. It all began when I was in my 20s and I started getting tingly (cảm giác ngứa ran) hands. I had no idea what it was but I found out when I went to the hospital and they had circled ‘MS’. It was a shock but I didn’t want to let it get me down. It has been a slow deterioration (hư hỏng, giảm giá trị; trở nên xấu xa, sa đọa, trụy lạc) over the years and it progressed to me dragging my foot and struggling to walk.”
