Time!

“People are frugal in guarding their personal property; but as soon as it comes to squandering time they are most wasteful of the one thing in which it is right to be stingy.” 

-- Seneca


Time is precious, but let’s be real—sometimes we just need to relax and scroll through Instagram reels or YouTube shorts after a long day. It’s totally fine to take breaks! The problem comes when that mindless scrolling takes over. On the flip side, we don’t want to push ourselves into toxic productivity either. 

The key is balance—finding that sweet spot between work and rest. Every now and then, check in with yourself: How much time are you using productively, and how much is slipping away? Time, once lost, is gone forever—so let’s make sure we use it in ways that truly count!

Reflection: How much time did you spend productively today, and how much time did you waste?

Handling Conflicts

Conflicts are inevitable whenever people interact—whether between coworkers, relatives, or friends. However, how you handle them can make all the difference. When faced with conflict, take a step back. Breathe deeply, stay calm, and reassess the situation before responding. It’s not always easy, but it becomes more natural with practice. Sometimes, the best solution is simply to walk away for a while, allowing the conflict to resolve itself over time. Some people thrive on conflict due to low self-esteem or a need for attention. Avoid them. Life is too valuable to waste on unnecessary tension. Surround yourself with those who support growth, not those who bring negativity. What do you contribute to your relationships? Is it tension or support?

Questioning Norms!

“Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it is time to pause and reflect.” ​ — Mark Twain. Following the crowd can sometimes distract us from what truly matters. When we find ourselves agreeing with popular opinion, it’s important to pause and think critically. Just because something is widely accepted doesn’t mean it’s right for everyone. Mob psychology reveals how group influence can cloud our judgment, leading to actions we wouldn’t normally take. Taking a moment to reflect helps us stay true to our own beliefs and values, allowing for more authentic decision-making. In a world full of trends, staying grounded in who we are leads to greater personal fulfillment and growth. Reflection: How do you ensure your decisions are based on your values, rather than peer or societal pressure?

Big Decisions

Spend more time making the big decisions. Where you live : The city or place you choose to live in shapes your opportunities, experiences, and lifestyle. Yet, we often don’t spend enough time deciding where to settle. Who you’re with : Relationships have a lasting impact on your happiness and well-being. Still, we frequently rush into them without careful thought. What you do : Your career is a major part of your life, but we spend very little time deciding which job or field to pursue despite the time we invest in it. Reflection : In what ways have your choices impacted your personal growth and fulfilment? This post is inspired by  Naval Ravikant .
