Spending time delighting in activities is always worthwhile.
Time is an extremely valuable asset, undoubtedly. However, there is often a misconception that comes along with this concept; because time is so valuable, it is essential to utilize every moment improving yourself. Exercising, working, earning money; if you are not engaged in these activities, you are squandering time. This notion is completely erroneous.
As crucial as it is to enhance yourself and ensure your financial stability and all related matters, it is just as vital to guarantee that you experience happiness every day. Your happiness, your mental well-being, is a crucial aspect of your life, or at least it should be. After all, what is the purpose of all that hard work if not to attain peace of mind for yourself? To borrow words from a certain vampire, the one thing all individuals inherently desire is peace of mind.
If working, exercising, and similar activities bring you genuine joy, then that’s fantastic! You belong to the fortunate group who can dedicate their entire day to something they love. Nonetheless, for most of us, the pursuit of financial stability and self-improvement can be incredibly draining, both physically and emotionally. We need to replenish ourselves with positivity, or we risk burning out. Taking a break for personal time is not just acceptable, it is essential.
So, when you feel worn out from the day, do not pressure yourself into immediately returning to work. Watch a film, indulge in some comfort food, engage in something playful that brings you joy. As long as it brings a smile to your face, it is time well invested.
