Realizing the Importance of Time

Time waits for no one. The time we have in this world is limited. Each person is given a specific amount of time. This is similar to being given a million dollars every morning. However, the choice is up to us how we spend it.

These concepts come into my mind when I think of all the reasons for why people choose to be productive or minimalist. The reality is that everyone wants to make the most of the time we have in this world or in this life in general.

Lately, I've been reading the Seven Habits of Highly Effective People by Stephen Covey and I learned the importance of the impact we have on others. At the end of our lives, we want people to be talking about the good things we did in this life. We want to be remembered for the value we brought to people. This can be no further from the truth because who actually gets to keep the possessions they have in this life or any of the money, no one. Place your value in your happiness and building memorable relationships. Focus on your "inner circle" yourself. Sharpen the Saw in other words and make sure that you let the people in your life know how much they mean to you.

Problem: Wasted Time
We must understand areas in our life that need improvement. Time is wasted when we choose not to learn and repeatedly make the same mistakes and damage the same relationships. No one wants this in reality so its important to focus on understanding ourself and our own weaknesses as soon as possible to do more valuable things with our time.

I always remember to try to at least be better than the person I was yesterday. The only competition you should have in this life is yourself because everyone is unique and lives their own journey. Live yours and make the most out of it. There's no point in wasting time being jealous anyways.

People who cannot focus because a lot of emotional problems end up wasting time. Analyze your thoughts and constantly challenge them searching for areas of improvement.

It's normal to live in fear of time because truly it waits for no one. Our decisions with what we do with our time is literally placed on the line everyday so all I can say is make the most of it everyday. I do my best to treat each day of this life as the best day ever!

Why I Stopped Blogging For A While And My Life Restart For 2021

 Besides how crazy last semester was and the current pandemic of things, I honestly didn't want to try anymore. I had created too many walls to even start. I spent majority of my time rediscovering myself. I missed who I was before this pandemic started. One setback I wanted to let people know about was that this was my first time not going home for Christmas and spending the holidays alone in my college dorm room. The rest of this post will elaborate on the events that took place. I felt like I became Batman. Stuck in my hole without anyone. I turned to anime specifically very dark anime. I stopped majority of my habits I had developed last school year including blogging or making Youtube videos. I stuck mainly with working on my art drawings that I had created the past school year. I slept late and ate junk food especially McDonalds. At one point, I felt like I had essentially fallen into a rut. However, this was only the hard parts of the story. I saw myself grow. Social media s...

Why You Should Say "Hi" First

Ever walk down the street and see millions of faces you don't know and just wish on the inside that you had the courage to talk to people. As an introvert and shy guy in general, I have struggled with this problem for most of my life and all of that slowly started to change the moment I decided to take initiative and say hi first. No one will wait for you to say it. I found it to be more of an instinct that occurs the moment I lay eyes on a close friend or acquaintance. It helps with easing the tension when our brains recognize a familiar face. If you struggle with social anxiety, this may help you ease those worries but the best way to do it still is to recognize that you need to reprogram your mind to see social situations in a different light honestly. The only exception to this is someone who ends up ignoring your presence entirely as you acknowledge them. It is a very dissatisfying feeling but there definitely are people like that. Don't worry about them, they aren...

What I Learned About Life From Watching "Codename: Kids Next Door (KND)"

Image
The Kids Next Door (KND) is an early 2000s Cartoon Network TV show that was based on the idea of kids with their endless creativity teaming up with their friends to fight off their enemies who were regularly adults. I know this concept seems a bit convoluted but it actually is a lot more understandable than it sounds. KND only fights evil adults that treat others badly because not all adults are bad and not all teenagers are bad either; it is the acts of unfair treatment or cheating that causes this team of operatives to spring into action and save others, specifically kids. They are similar to the Men In Black or the James Bond for children giving them a voice when no one could at their age. When I was a kid, this show had an amazing impact on me! I couldn't believe how awesome kids were creating amazing tree houses full of all kinds of amazing technology. In modern times, things have only gotten better as kids are becoming even more creative through social platforms such as Tik...
