Time Is Not My Mate
Hello everyone,
To be honest, time no dey ever wait for person Sometimes i wonder if 24 hours is enough to do all the things I want to do in a day but then I realize the problem is not always time sometimes, it’s me.
Let me be real with you i used to be a big time procrastinator i would plan everything in my head what I want to do, how I want to do it, even when to start But when the time comes, I will just look at the ceiling or start scrolling through my phone before I know it, I’m deep inside Instagram reels or watching funny videos on TikTok the worst part I’d say, i will do it later, knowing fully well I’m lying to myself.
But life doesn’t slow down for anybody i started seeing that the people I admire those that are doing well in life they value their time like gold while I’m saying "make I rest small", someone else is already completing what I planned to start that thing pain me, but it also taught me a hard truth if I don’t respect my own time nobody will do it for me.
These days, I’m trying to be more intentional with how I spend my 24 hours i now write out my daily to do list, even if it’s just three things I want to achieve that day i also time myself for example, if I say i will write content by 10am, I try my best to keep to it like it’s an important appointment.
Still, I won’t lie I’m not perfect yet there are days when I still waste time watching things online or lying on my bed overthinking but the difference now is that I catch myself quickly and try to bounce back after I finish my daily tasks i try to rest, not by watching endless videos, but by doing something meaningful. Sometimes I read, sometimes I clean up my space, or even spend quality time with my kids or loved ones those little moments bring me joy.
Now, when I look at the things that waste my time the most, it's social media and overthinking scrolling for hours, comparing myself to others, and worrying about things I can’t change all na time wasters i try now to limit my phone use and just focus on what I can control.
To round it up, time is really life in motion If you waste time, you're wasting your life small small so now, I try to use my time better I no longer see it as just “another day,” but as an opportunity to take one step closer to my goals.
Thanks for reading

Social media is actually a very fast way to waste your time especially that app called TikTok. You could literally decide to watch just one videos and you wouldn't even know when you end up spending up to 4 or even 5 hours.
That is the truth hmm it is well time fly
