Nowadays, there is this trend going around about living each moment and we see social media folks sharing about their lives and how they are living their lives. However, what spurred this article is me seeing a Youtube video about a young man saying, ‘What if you had $86,400.00 everyday and you can only use that money during that day – what would you do? (I have an imagination, I can do a lot with it.) Then this dude goes on to say, you have 86400 seconds in a day, what are you doing with it?
Ok, I am sure he means well but come on, let us look at those who go out to work, have a job, have kids etc. It is not about spending every freaking second in a day being productive or whatever not but how a day is spent. We need to slow down, we need to just learn to enjoy living first rather than living right now and living today or being productive every second of the day.
You decide how and what you are going to do with your day – if you want to do nothing, do nothing because you are going to give it your best to do nothing, if you want to start on something you have been procrastinating, then do that and give it your best.
I feel that we need to maybe first appreciate that we are waking up in the morning to be given another day to live and during that day do the things that you need or want – it can be just for a couple of hours a day. It is not to fill it up to the brim, it is to experience your daily comfort.
Take things easy with your day and do not feel disheartened if you do not use every second of the day for something productive. Spend your day the best way that you can and take it easy.
Take care everyone and be kind to yourself and to others.
