The time which we've wasted!

Can you count how many hours each week, each month, each year we waste in such unproductive stuff?

The time which we've wasted in:

watching movies in cinema halls
watching TV's unnecessary programs including the so called reality shows
discussing with friends about TV shows and cinema's
Watching sports events and discussing the same with friends
Reading extensively about sports/film/TV celebrities

The time which we've wasted:

by not planning our days in advance

by sleeping more than what was needed

in quarreling with others and time it took to come to our senses

by thinking about our never ending worries


The time which we've wasted: ....

again.

    Yeah, my mind obsesses over time management. If I have a few free hours, I would like to spend it doing this or that. Of course, I want time for fun stuff, but that doesn't help business outside of a little break.

    We should not think about the time we wasted. We need to utilize the time we have in front. Always past it Past.

      Here's a relevant quote, and one of my favorites, from Seneca the Younger:

      I see that you have reached the highest life expectancy and are now close to a century or more; please give us an itemized account of your years.

      Calculate how much of that span was subtracted by a creditor, a mistress, a patron, a client, quarreling with your wife, punishing your slaves, gadding about the city on social duties. Add to the subtrahend self-caused diseases and the time left an idle blank. You will see that you possess fewer years than the calendar shows.

      Search your memory: how seldom you have had a consistent plan, how few days worked out as you intended, how seldom you have enjoyed full use of yourself, how seldom your face was unflurried, what accomplishments you have to show for so long a life, how much of your life has been pilfered by others without your being aware of it, how much of it you have lost, how much was dispensed on groundless regret, foolish gladness, greedy desire, polite society --- and then realize that your death will be premature.

    There is no wasted time as long as we learn a lesson from our actions or lack of them.

    If you mean unproductive time then I could offer my side of the story.

    I recently realized that I was spending 15- 20 minutes daily going through online newspapers.

    However, when I did some quick math, 15 minutes daily is 450 minutes a month-almost a full working day.

    In one year, I would have spent about 90 hours. ( Just imagine what you can do with this kind of time in your hands)

    I stopped this habit and I am now on my 70th day without papers. My goals cannot be affected by my ignorance of what is is called news- usually about murders, earthquakes, accidents, political machinations and a big display of moral decay.

    In fact, if you can write just 100 words every 15 minutes, you can post an article every week-52 in a year. This is something most people do not do because of lack of time.
