When you feel lazy or uninspired...

We all mostly feel like crashing, having a drink and relaxing whole day, who doesn't likes to relax right ?

But the thing is, time is something we underestimate, how many of you actually value your time ? Did you say you do ? look at the list below

1 Week - A holiday.

1 Day - Sleep it off, watch TV, lie around.

6 hours - A day out with friends.

3 hours - Movies/Series. (For some it may be longer, depending they watching it at home)

2 hours - Internet. (For some it may be longer)

1 hour - Gaming, Social networking. (For some it may be longer)

30 minutes - Time spent on phone calls (For some it may be longer)

15 minutes - nobody cares

1 minutes - no one cares like it doesn't exists.

I am not even going to write about "seconds"

So above list is a typical example of people utilizing their time, and those people are average. Stop being average, stop doing what everyone else is doing. Create your own life, your own lifestyle, your own rules, and make it all aligned with the time so that you have enough to spend with your loved ones and to achieve your goals.

Here’s a little tip I use when I feel like wasting time.

“Whenever you feel lazy or uninspired, just imagine your 80-year-old self is watching and judging HOW YOU SPEND YOUR DAY.”

The older we get, time seems to move quicker because everything happens in bigger time blocks. In grade school you had 45-min periods, a 15-min recess, a 30-min lunch, a 60-min basketball practice etc.

When we’re older we have 4-hour, part-time shifts, 3-hour college classes, 9-hour work days, 2 hours of daily commuting, etc. In adulthood our weeks, months and years often blend together in hindsight.

It’s incredibly easy for these large chunks of time that take up my day to wear me out. REMEMBER: There will be nights when you come home and are so exhausted that you’ll crash immediately.

On other nights when you have the option to either call it a day or use your last bits of energy to contribute something, ALWAYS choose the latter. Even if it’s just an extra paragraph you write, a chapter you read or an email you send. Those small tasks you tackle accumulate over time and will pay dividends sooner than you think.

If your 80-year-old self is watching you today, they’re envying you because you have the one precious resource that no amount of money will ever get them: time. So make the most of it. That way current you AND 80-year-old you can be proud of a life well utilized.

“Punctuality is the thief of time.” 

- Oscar Wilde 

Time

A long time ago, I saw a movie "In Time" the idea/concept behind that movie was mind blowing.
The currency was time, like 1 hour transferred for a bus ride, 1 hour for a drink etc.

The movie was good, I applaud the person who came up with this idea for a movie. We in real world deal with money as currency, which is very practical since we don't have clocks embedded on our wrist like they had in the movie. I have studied few things about the concept of money and how it works, the inflation etc. But a good definition would be money buys "experiences", A Rs 100 note can buy you a coffee, or alcohol. Its totally your decision.

We take time less seriously than we should. I respect time, you already know about my 10 years theory. As a result I am punctual and finish my work on time. Think of time as 4th dimension, well it is not scientifically proved yet but I believe in it. By every second passing we are moving close to our death, make sure you do all that you want to do, make time for it. There's no point regretting later.

Try to save time, it is just like money and even better than it.
Remember Money can't buy time.

You

I have not written anything lately, because to be honest I feel it hard to put my thoughts on a sheet, I just don't get motivated enough. But then I remembered something which was the very base why I started my blog.

Anything you write, will be read by at least one more person than you. So I write for that one person.

The topic here is "You" its a very interesting topic and one can write a book about it.
You see, the only person who can make you feel better, or make you feel bad is only you.
We feel happy or sad, because we want to feel happy or sad. And the medium is our expectations, A person with least expectations is always the happy one, because he can survive in the least favorable conditions. On the other hand when we look for comfort and want things according to us we cannot survive that environment and get hurt. You can relate this to everything in your life, love, money, success etc. So I would suggest you to give at least  10 minutes of your day to think about these 3 things, it will make you a better person.

- Who am I  ?
- What am I doing ?
- Why am I here ?

You may not get these answers straight away, but soon you will figure all this out.


See you soon...

The Decade of your life.

I was born on 25th of November 1991 that makes me 24 years old now.

It's time to reevaluate one's life. I believe and follow a philosophy that the age between 20 to 30 is the most productive and decision making decade of your lifetime. These 10 years either make you or break you. One should know how to utilize this time and make the most of it. Think practically, during these years, you're most energetic, passionate, fresh, powerful. You can use all these powers to make your life more comfortable and reach the state of success. After 30 you'll have your family to worry about, your kids, your ageing parents. You won't be able to focus in one direction. After 30 you can't physically or mentally give enough to your career/business so by then you should make your life comfortable enough to take care of those losses you'll have to deal with.

Then again if you don't want any of the stuff mentioned above and want to live your life like many teenagers, then go travel the world, have fun, party and hangout with friends. Whatever you do, remember, you won't get these 10 years back. So spend wisely.

I've completed 4 years of this decade. And so far I'm in a pretty good position in my career. I've 6 more years but I'll do it in less than that.

Stay focused, work hard, earn respect.
Respect is far more valuable than money.

The Anti-Social Network

Hi everyone,

I want you all to take good 5 minutes of your lives and give this idea a piece of your mind.
The cellphone we use, majorly for Social Network, I couldn't be more straight here, "Just stop over doing it"

You are thinking you are closer to the person you love but actually you are going away. These networks are here for communication, not to live your life on a wall. I go to facebook once or twice a day (Actually I am a YouTube addict) just to see what my friends are up to and after scrolling for 30 seconds I am back in the real world, with people who are with me. In future when you won't have the bones to walk, the courage to jump, the passion to ride, you will regret each and every unproductive second spent here on these cobwebs of internet.

You need to make most of everything we have, because life may seem long, but its actually really small when you begin to realize the joy of small things. You may not realize this, just have a look the facts below.
Users send out 58 million tweets per day, with 9,100 happening every second. However, there are 222 million Twitters who just watch other people’s tweets. There are 684,478 pieces of content shared on Facebook; 3,600 new photos on Instagram; 2,083 check-ins on Foursquare during every minute of everyday. People are spending 1 out of every 7 minutes on Facebook when online. Facebook users typically are spending 10.5 Billion minutes (almost 20,000 years) on the social network. And, that’s excluding mobile devices. See 20,000 Years, we can't even begin to imagine how valuable and priceless piece of time is wasted and it goes on.

If you are applying for a new job, you know your chances of getting that job may be so much reduced because of your social networking website profile page? Often employs search for applicant’s social networking website’s profile page to know more about you.  Maybe you have put some humorous pics in your profile or maybe you have entered wrong information (maybe just for fun) in your profile.  Your employer will be shocked to see all that and you will not be given the job offer.

Just think all of the technology is here to help you, not to become so dependent on it that when you do not have it, you can't live anymore. Clicking pictures of food before eating it, taking risky selfies just to get more likes, getting jealous because of less number of followers or likes, writing about your personal life in public, please stop all this, this makes you look pathetic and desperate.

Remember who you are, act accordingly.
