Decide how you want to use the majority of your time.
Wait a second - let's tweak that...
Decide how you're already using the majority of your time
Does it fit into what you think you want to be doing with your life?
That feel right to me. More on target & on task - for the person wanting more out of life - than the first step. Because it's easy satisfying comforting to think about how we want to use our time or our skills or any of our resources. That is such stuff as dreams are made of. But taking the time to notice how I am actually using what I have at hand, any & all of it, can be sobering.
Our lives reflect what we put our time & energies, effort & resources on. If I spend a couple hours in the morning as part of a lively & seemingly important online discussion, those are hours I'm not spending doing other things. Am I happy with that?
How do I use the majority of my time? Where am I focusing my attention & efforts? From moment to moment, from hour to hour, from day to day - am I even aware of doing either of those things?
Vashali says, "You are what you love ~ and you love what you put your attention on." Where, at any given moment, am I putting my attention? Is it keeping me in place or moving me forward?
My life is a reflection of how I spend the majority of my time et al. How does it look? How does it feel?
