With so much advancement taking place in so many factors of life, such as new and improved vehicles taking the market by storm, stunning architecture that has never been seen before and of course, astounding technological inventions, including brand new astonishing phones and laptops, our current generation’s attention has unanimously diverted towards these new innovations in life– of course, because of how fascinating they seem and because of how unprecedented some of these inventions are.
Gradually, the youngsters are starting to take the most important factors of life for granted and are starting to prioritise less important things over some of the most important aspects of our life, such as our own family.
Not only is this a sad and unfortunate reality for the older generation of our family, such as our grandparents, since no one really gives them the attention they deserve anymore, but thinking about the future seems pretty unpromising and, to a certain degree, quite intimidating as well; if we have a look at the statistics, there has been a massive downfall in the stats that show how much of a decrease there has been in people interacting with their family and socialising with their friends. In other words, quite sadly, teenagers and grown-ups nowadays don’t take time out of their free time (which they mostly use to spend time on things that aren’t too important) to spend time with their own family.
If you do a little bit of research and jump back to around half a century ago, you might be gobsmacked to hear that everyone’s number one priority was their family back then– and family here does not only refer to their immediate family; back in the day, people used to socialise with their cousins, uncles, aunties and all other relations in between so much more.
Not only is there a problem of people not spending time with their family, but people are wasting their precious time on things that are not even important. As a result, they are not making the progress in life that they would like to make.
Now you might be wondering how exactly can we eliminate this problem and start spending our ample time on more useful and productive things. Well, this article has been written to help you with your time management– how you can use your time for productive things instead of wasting it on things that are unimportant. Here’s a list of things you can do!
Start Spending Your Time With Your Family and Those you Love.
It is very important to spend time with your family. Family members are the only people that you can trust, and you can feel free to discuss everything you have in mind with them– in other words, there will be no shy telling your parents, siblings or maybe even your cousins anything you have to talk to them about. Moreover, family is one of the only blessings in life that can not be replaced by another. No matter how difficult of a situation you are in or how much of a setback you have faced, no one will comfort and console you more than your family.
Parents and siblings especially are two sets of individuals that are unlike any other in terms of trustworthiness and openness; with your immediate family i.e. siblings and parents, you can share whatever you want without having to restrict yourself– you can talk to them frankly without having to feel shy or embarrassed. They will always help you regardless of what situation you are forced to face; hence, you should always spend time interacting with them and, of course, should value them– give them the value they deserve by making sure that you always stay united!
There have also been many types of research based on hundreds of surveys that show that a person finds most happiness with their family and loved ones, not with random people they meet in the bar or clubs!
Start Going to a Sports Club
Physical Activity is essential for everyone. Without any exercise, the body has to face many consequences such as health issues, missing out on building up immunity and many more. Arguably one of the most significant losses for someone that does not exercise is that the person misses out on opportunities to cheer his soul up– by exercising, you will see a huge impact on your mood, and you will see your mood and attitude improving enormously, trust us! Consequently, you will start enjoying life more and hopefully, that will lead to you becoming more of an optimistic person in general. In a nutshell, exercise is undeniably one of the best therapies for those that feel unhappy and downhearted and for those that have a tonne of ample time that they use for things that are totally unimportant.
Reward Yourself for Completing Big Tasks
Rewarding yourself for tasks you complete is a great way to motivate and encourage yourself! It will push you to do greater things in life and will be a fantastic way to progress– without encouragement and motivation, you might find it a little hard to go push yourself to achieve bigger and greater things. This is why people often listen to motivational speakers etc. however, most of them don’t realise that there are so many fantastic ways that are more effective for motivating themselves, one of which is to reward yourself for completing tasks.
