We live not at all how we want and how we dreamed. We want to relax, communicate with loved ones, have fun, sleep well, devote time to hobbies, travel, chase dreams and take care of ourselves. But it doesn't work. I'm too busy. This is what all adults say to themselves. What to do if there is no free time?
Before you thought that a real, adult, interesting and happy life would begin soon? But he grew up and found that there was only vanity and bustle around? No free time for anything? The most popular problem of a modern person is the feeling of being constantly busy.
Sometimes we get to the point where we don't have an hour of free time. Even five free minutes. We are all the time busy with something, we rarely rest, we collapse from fatigue, we do not sleep much, but still we do not have time for anything. We are losing the race against time.
What is the problem? Why do things never end? We are used to being busy. This is our habit of living busy, which is exhausting, does not allow us to take care of ourselves and prevents us from becoming happy. It's time to create the habit of not being busy, but free. This is a whole art. Learn the basics of time management.
Why is there no free time?
“The only time you have is now; the only place is here. " Indian Spiritual Leader Osho (Bhagwan Shri Rajneesh)
1. We take on too much
We are too optimistic about what we can do. We overestimate our capabilities, talents and speed of action. We say yes to many things, afraid to say no. We believe that we have to do too much and too well. We have to be in time everywhere, everywhere. But it hurts ourselves.
In life, it is important to strive not to do everything, but to give up everything that is superfluous and insignificant as often as possible. Move to the minority in business and say no more often. Asceticism helps clear up time and free your hands for really important things.
2. Lack of links between cases and results
We often complete tasks to get them done. They are so unimportant and insignificant that their implementation does not matter. Our life will not change or improve in any way.
We put off more important things, disguising ourselves with smaller ones. We are afraid to take on important, difficult and necessary matters, preferring to be busy with various nonsense. It's like when preparing for exams, we prefer to clean the apartment, drink tea or do something else.
It's easier for us to complain about being busy with all sorts of useless vanity than to free ourselves and do something really most important. What do you constantly avoid? You can try to unravel the Gordian knot all your life, or you can cut it and move on to conquer your dreams.
How to be more free and find time?
1. Prioritize
Make your own personal action plan and call it Breakthrough. What do we have to do? There are things and tasks that are more important to you. On which your further career, life, level of well-being and achievement of goals depend.
Instead of rushing to do unimportant things, get down to the most important things. Did you want to start learning a foreign language? Sign up for a programming or design course to change jobs?
Always prioritize your most important tasks with time to complete. Stop hiding from difficult but important tasks behind the petty bustle of eternal employment. According to Pareto's law, 20% of cases give 80% of the result, and the remaining 80% of cases give only 20%.
2. Get rid of all unnecessary things
Why is there no free time? Are you too busy? Who are you fooling your head with if not yourself? How many hours do you spend on social networks? How much TV, series and movies do you watch? How long have you been wandering aimlessly on the Internet? How long do you lie on the couch, chatting pointlessly with people, drinking alcohol or just messing around?
Limit your time on the Internet, movies and social media. Don't check your mail and messages every 5 minutes. When you do not have a minute of free time, then you are wasting it on empty and small things. Clean up your time. Regularly analyze how you lower it down the pipe.
3. Concentrate on one task
Multitasking is a myth that makes you less projective. If you want to do something, then concentrate on exactly one thing. You can do just one thing well, efficiently, quickly and efficiently. Only complete concentration and concentration gives it.
Work in 30-50 minute snippets, taking a short break. This will speed up your work and make you more productive.
Give yourself time constraints and a clear deadline. When should the task be completed? This will allow you not to engage in procrastination or procrastination, as well as perfectionism, which means striving for the perfect result.
4. Lead a more correct lifestyle
- If you get little rest, sleep and sleep all the time, you will never succeed in business.
- If you eat poorly or consume various nonsense, then your body is malfunctioning.
- If you avoid discipline and do not follow order, then everything goes wrong.
- If you ignore sports and an active lifestyle, then the body and brain become less productive.
- If you love alcohol and indulge in bad habits, then you yourself deprive yourself of the inherent opportunities.
Lead a more correct lifestyle. Otherwise, you are doomed to live and act only half-heartedly. It's like paddling with one hand or running on one leg. It is possible, but the chances of winning are zero. Do your best if you want to be happy.
Why is there no free time? Are you too busy? Or are you just doing something different from what you want? Be free and not busy all the time and do what really matters.
