Monday Morning Reflection on Wasting Time
It's Monday morning and I'm in a reflective mood. I have been thinking lately of the things that I do, read, and listen to that take up my time and that do not bring me joy. I am trying to focus my energy only on those things and people who matter.
What are things you waste your time on? Why do you waste your time on these things?
I have take a few steps to pair down what in consume. My Feedly and PocketCasts list have gotten shorter. I have removed feeds that I recognize only pitch consumerism. The sell you the latest and greatest but yet add zero actual value to my life.
