Based on research conducted at Yale University, it turns out you can tell a lot about your happiness and well-being level by the quality of time you make for yourself.
Making time to spend with family and friends who bring out the best in you.
Making time to go on a date with yourself.
Making time to create side projects and learn new things.
Making time to blissfully do nothing.
Successful people know this. They know this because they’ve reached the mountain top of worldly success and looked back to see that if you’ve got your health, your family, and your time, you’ve got it good. Find here destination Big Bear.
The late Gary Shandling said before starting a new project, he asks himself if he really wants to do it because then he’d have to give up doing nothing.
I don’t think he literally means ‘nothing’. I interpret it as the freedom to feel alive in the present and learning and growing on his own terms.
What’s your time affluence like today? Are you busy doing things that you feel you have to? OR
Are you doing things, investing time in yourself and others because you get to?
If your time affluence is scarce, then how can you eliminate time wasted and time given away in pursuit of someone else’s dream to make time for your own.
