9 Activities Worth Spending Your Time On
Ignoring these is not going to do you any good…
We have a very abusive relationship with time. Most of us take it for granted. We waste our days scrolling through our Instagram feed, keeping up with what the others we know are doing, despite being aware of the fact that time stops for nobody.
Time once gone can never come back. This moment that you are spending reading this, is the time that you cannot spend doing something else. The time you sent scrolling through Instagram is the time that you won’t get back.
In the last 7 days, I spent five hours on Instagram and three hours on Netflix. This was just on my phone but at the same time, I also spent only 1.5 hours a day on my phone. That is the beautiful thing about metrics — It keeps us honest!
An average adult who lives for 70 years, gets 25500 days on this planet to make the most out of their lives. This number becomes even smaller if you take out the first 25 years of your life from it — assuming this is the time an average person takes to start thinking about what they want from life.
Which means that we have way less time than we assume we do and we would be remiss not to spend it wisely.
