The Internet is a fun place to see what are things that I should be doing in order to be successful and extraordinary. And yet here I am doing none of those!
“You know what needs to be done, you know how it can be done, what’s stopping you?”
Well, everything else in between the two!
There are so many distractions in the world, it is very easy to do all the things that are not necessarily on top of our priority lists.
The advertisements to the recommendations of movies to watch and TV shows that I’ll love to the friends I might wanna add; everything is a distraction and prevents me from doing what I’m supposed to. And you know what? We need to learn to live and become successful not by ignoring these distractions but in spite of them. We need to learn to co-exist with them and understand how to use these to our advantage.
Telling myself that I’ll never open Facebook is a lie because Facebook is where many events are being posted and I want to be attending these instead, I should learn how to use Facebook in a way that does not interrupt with my productive work. As long as I do what needs to be done, it shouldn’t matter what I do it unwind and relax.
Relaxing is different for different people and most writers have formulated their perfect combination of things to do from morning to evening in order to be productive, but in all fairness what works for them needn’t work for you. In fact, none of those worked for me even for a day. I had to find my own rhythm and figure out what I can do to maximize productivity. And this is very much possible if you simply pay attention to what you’re doing instead of living off someone else’s guide to life!
