What do you consider a waste of time?
1. People pleasing: it’s damn exhausting. If you are one of unfortunate ones with this stellar trait, work on it. Sooner than later. It’s a miserable life. Impossible to please everyone, and a complete waste of time
2. Gossip: if you find yourself, or those close to you gossiping about people, remove or limit your time with them.
3. Toxic relationships: You were cheated on? You were lied to? Wait! They said they would change? They won’t. They definitely won’t. Remove them from your life and find someone that respects you. Put your time into them, not wasting it on those that showed you who they are.
4. Fast food: It may be quick, and some even say it taste good. But with age and consumption you will quickly find out why the “convenience” of it is a waste of time. Health.
5. Rumination: Obsessively thinking about people, events and things you can not and will not change/control. Put that energy into yourself. Time well spent, not wasted.
6. Careers: I’m speaking of the ones that consume your life. I get we need doctors, attorneys, engineers, etc. but to me, living to work is not my ideal life. To each their own.
7. Opinions: This is very hard I know. I struggle with it. But if you can come to terms with not giving a flying shit what someone thinks about you, well, life will be so much better! Not everyone will like us, be ok with it. Be you, do you and be kind to others.
