What's your plan for this last third?
Perhaps the first 20 has been spent with hurried sahur (meals before fajr), quick salah during the day (at least u pay extra attention to praying on time when work schedule permits), your Isha' salat is often (when u can afford it) with some few rakahs of tarawih (at least it's not compulsory)...hmn!
But what about this last third...have you laid back (just a few minutes) to reflect on the amazing wonders of Allah in your life (not anyone else's o!...just yours). Have you thought about the Qiyamah (the day of recompense) and what party you'd like to belong...

'Aishah radhiya Allahu `anha, said: "O Messenger of Allah! What if I knew which night Lailatul-Qadr was, then what should I say in it?" He said.- "Say.- (Allahumma innaka 'affuwwun tuhibbul 'afwa fa'fu 'annee.)
"O Allaah You are The One Who pardons greatly, and loves to pardon, so pardon me.". [at-Tirmithi and Ibn Majah with a Sahih Isnad]

So it really doesn't take you much to give extra time to Allah during this last part...afterall if you were seeking a promotion in the office, you would work extra-hard and would want the
