A LITTLE INVESTMENT
NO TIME TO INVEST
I don’t have time to invest on myself. Do you also
feel the same? This might be because we probably end up doing things that are
not that really important to be done at the moment or perhaps that does not require
immediate attention. I mean if a few things are left undone will not have any
major difference. Instead of spending your time over there, divert your
precious time in doing something that is going to add some value to your life.
This can be done by prioritizing things.
In taking care of and fulfilling the needs of near
one we often tend to let go ourselves and spend time doing the jobs which does
not actually belongs to us. Waiting for a friend who is always late, making a
project for your best friend, arranging the stuff of the other family members,
spending time on phone, hearing to sob stories to which you cannot do anything.
There is a thin line between helping and wasting time. There is no point in
waiting for a friend who is always late rather save that time and do something
that enhances your mood. Making a project for your best friend would not be
helping, instead helping would be to guide the friend and ask him/her to make a
project. Placing responsibility on every member of the family for keeping their
rooms clean and placing their stuff at the desired place would save lot of
time. There is no point in long conversation output of which is zero. If you
can be of any help, please do give your opinion and make it short. The point
here is to understand between helping and wasting time. If you are in such a
position that your help is going to make a difference then please go ahead but
if it is otherwise make it short and save you time to invest it on yourself.
ARE YOU SPENDING TIME OR INVESTING IT
Both these terms have different meanings. When you
spend something you do not expect anything in return but when you invest in
something you would expect your return on investment. Below examples might help
to understand it in better way
|
Are you spending time OR |
Are you investing time |
|
in thinking about how badly someone treated
you and demoralized you |
in self-growth |
|
by answering all the questions that are been
asked in a day |
in finding solutions to your
own unanswered questions. |
|
on mobile by surfing, social media or playing
games |
by learning a new skill vide apps available |
|
in a relationship in which you are not happy |
to make your bond and relation strong |
|
in doing a job that you are not happy with |
in creating your own venture
that you always desired of |
|
in hope of some miracles or waiting to receive
help from someone |
by trying and exploring the
probable solutions |
|
in complaining lack of time |
it by planning |
Many a time we are not aware of what to do and what
does we need. At such a time we could reverse the approach and strike out what
is not required to be done. By doing this we can strike off many of the
probabilities.
