I often feel that there is simply not enough time in the day to do all that I want. I will quite frequently stay up late attempting to complete everything.
This of course results in waking up late each day and thereby having even less time to spend on those things I wish I had more time for.
The cycle repeats.
Now, if sleep was not necessary, what would I do with all that extra time?
First, I would make myself a schedule. I find lists are good for keeping some semblance of order:
- I should like to step up my time spent creating video content for YouTube
Ideally, I would like to schedule videos out 2-3 weeks in advance. I think I would do this just in case something unexpected comes up and prevents me from recording.
More often than not there have been times where a scheduled video day has arrived and I have nothing on hand.
- I would set aside a suitable period of time for self improvement activities
I don’t exercise as much as my doctor would like. Twice I have put my back out and been bed ridden for a week or longer.
I often think I should get some exercise, but somehow my priorities shift and it doesn’t happen.
- Home improvement and DIY projects would also be at the top of my list
Earlier this year my mother was injured when a board in our back porch gave out. Really the whole deck needs to be rebuilt, but I cannot afford the cost.
I ordered the wood and screws to effect repairs, but I only got maybe halfway through the project. I feel bad about it every time I see the unfinished holes.
- Going for a walk would be nice, getting out and into the sunshine
I really do spend far too much time either at the computer studying, in front of the TV watching shows, or with a phone in hand, participating in some inane activity.
Back out in nature, back to my roots, recalling some small piece of my youth. I should like to go on an adventure.
- Lastly, I would spend time remaining quiet and still. Some reflective inward searching may be beneficial for me.
There was a period of my life where I meditated daily and took time to understand my self. I would read Mooji books and remain quite. I miss the sense of peace I had in those times.
