Time is a relative thing. You have time for what matters and you don’t have it for what doesn’t matter. You have time for the things you want to do and you have excuses for the things you don’t want to do. When someone says they don’t have time for something, it’s not that they don’t actually have an hour to spare. It’s that what is to be done is of less importance to that person. After all, we have the same number of hours in the day as Mother Teresa and Michael Jordan.
Are we putting those hours to good use or are we frivolously wasting it on things that don’t make a difference in the future? We all like to think that we have all the time in the world, especially when we are young. It’s something that we think we will have forever. But the reality is that we don’t. Time is also limited, we just don’t know how much yet. If I told you that you had one year left on this Earth, will that change what you spend your time on? How about if I told you that you only have one week left?
I wonder if this is one of the things that God will ask us when we meet him one day. (Whatever higher power you believe in) What if He asks us what we did with all the time He gave us? Imagine if God has an excel sheet and he tells you that you watched television for what equals 2 years and spent 5 years on Instagram. Haha
Call to action:
Track how much time you spend on each task\event daily.
If you notice you are spending more hours than you had willingly planned, change it. Use a planner or block out hours for certain activities that are more or less important to you.
