Time doesn’t stop, it goes on no matter what. We all just have limited amount of it here on earth. Yet sometimes you want the time go fast and sometimes you want it to slow down.

So time is always the same but can feel very different. When I was younger I had the feeling time was going so slow. I wanted to grow old faster but everything seemed so far away. Of course I didn’t have the same perception of time then compared to now. I would say life speeds up wile growing up and getting older.

Everyone has heard the quote, “Time is money” and that’s true time is valuable even more than money. Our technology is evolving everyday more than ever before, it makes our lives flexible and more comfortable.

Do you ever waste time?

How do most people in our society spend their time? To survive in our ekosystem you need money, trading your time against money is the most common way to go. You get payed for what you bring to the table in knowledge and experience.

In your regular 9 to 5 job you spent around eight hours, you get money in exchange for your time. The average human is awake 16 hours a day so at least half of it has to do with with your job, plus transport there and back home. Working a job is not easy, especially if you don’t really like it. When the day is over, your are drained of energy.

Besides from a job the human being spends now a days a lot of the awaken hours on the phone. It is of course a very important tool for the everyday life, although its new develop apps and features make us spent more time than we actually want.

The content is stimulating and so intense that you can call it addictive. The scrolling steals our time and makes us weaker, it gives free dopamine and ruins the reward system. We do not get anything in exchange it just stimulates our senses and gives the illusion of actually doing something.

Time can be your best ally and your biggest enemy.

One must learn to see the good and powerful things about time. It can work to your advantage, if you give time to important or useful actions, they will improve. Grow bigger and better just like a seed who gets water, it will soon grow and be a plant you just got to give it time.

Use your time consciously learn how to mange it. No need to complicate anything just be aware of the great things you already have. It’s human to always want more and to compare yourself to others.

Help yourself 2 win.

Make it easy and attraktiv to spend time on your desired activities. So if you like to paint but rarely do it, buy some new pencils. If you want to start going to the gym buy nice cloths you will put on for training.

Things you don’t like spending time on, hide them, make them difficult and unsatisfying to do. If you often play video games instead of reading that very interesting book you just bought. Unplug the console and put it in your wardrobe.
