You should be ruthless with your time.
It’s finite; You only have about 29,200 days alive on this earth.
Don’t intentionally spend it on things that don’t or wont matter to you, internally or externally.
Your time should be spent either
-
Investing in your future
-
Enjoying the present
1 | Investing on your future means working on something or doing something that can compound over time, provides you long term growth, and is meaningful to you. It will provide high value to you.
2 | Enjoying your present means enjoying what you have now and being grateful on where you are at.
-
It’s important to differentiate between meaningful enjoyment and meaningless pleasure.
-
The former is a type of enjoyment that you’re left satisfied by afterward.
-
The latter is the inverse. It’s a type of enjoyment that leaves you dissatisfied afterward and has you wanting more to the point where you can’t stand that desire that you succumb to it.
-
The utopia of time spenditure is in the intersection between investment and enjoyment.
Spending your time with investment in your future while enjoying what you’re doing.
Meaningful Investment + Meaningful Enjoyment = Joyful Fulfillment.
