it’s so easy to get lost in many different things… daydreaming… thinking… gaming… and it takes much determination to just fucking forget those things and concentrate on the important ones…

just hafta remember: time is limited. 1 month ago


SoycheezyI found a helpful link...:

http://www.srichinmoybio.co.uk/blog/life/10-tips-to-get-out-of-a-rut/

On this link it lists ten simple tasks to alleviate the worn avenues of our lives. I found solution no.3 to be especially helpful:

“Do Without Some Everyday things”
...namely “if we become totally absorbed in one activity, it leaves no opportunity for discovering newness in our life.”

Helps when I begin to revert to those time-trodden errors.

Good luck! 21 months ago

I haven’t written an entry on this for THREE years! THREE!

Now I wouldn’t say the last three years of my life have been a waste… but I can say that broken apart and inspected upon, my life is still rather dull.

I know you can’t feel meaningful in every moment. You can’t always feel euphoric.

But you can feel better than this. 23 months ago


Athena712Epiphany:

When I was in the shower yesterday, I was wondering how people have time to exercise, cook, work/study, clean AND look after themselves (ie skincare/haircare) when I realised- I don’t have time for all these things because I WASTE it!

I’ll jump on the computer at 2pm to work on an assignment/study, and before I know it, its 7pm and all I’ve done is browse facebook, caught up with the latest FMLs, MLIAs and DGAM. Oh, not to mention checked out my YouTube subscriptions. BAH.

From today: I will allocate no more than a half an hour on the internet a day for miscellaneous things (emails, eBay, facebook and, of course, 43Things) before I seriously get into some work, or some housecleaning or anything else that isn’t a HORRENDOUS waste of time!

17 more minutes left for today! :D

HOWEVER… Come holidays, I’m totally fine with spending more time on websites such as LastFM… But that’s more hobby, because I’m sussing out new music, etc. I work in a music store, and have compiled a list of bands I want to check out when I have time (post-exams), so this is an exception :P 2 years ago

lozzy_chaosi don't know...

you really do ‘spend’ time. except, time isn’t like money. you can’t just get some more of it by working or whatever…
you get a certain amount and that’s it. you don’t even know what that amount is.
every expirement of interest is marked at your own expense. mark it well. 4 years ago

I gave up the Time-Black Hole that is Facebook and I feel so much better. I’m not sucked into it for hours in a day and I’ve actually been reading some science books. It feels great! 4 years ago


liserichard23To better myself

Although I don’t watch TV (as I don’t own one), and don’t live close to many friends – I find myself wasting time.
Either I sit and just surf the net or I sit and sulk about how my town is so boring; or my best tactic to waste time is to think about all of the projects and assignments for work I have to get done and how I’ll never be able to get them all done
So I have decided that, that is all going to change! Im going to promise to myself that work hours are for work only – no more chatting with co-workers for 90% of the day.
And instead of complaining about all the work I have to do – just pulling up my socks and getting it done…one step at a time.
I hope that I can complete this task – and if I can it will be a remarkable accomplishment 4 years ago
