Have you thought about all the time you have in one day and how you spend all of it? Have you ever sat back and wondered where your day went? Do you ever feel like you did not get anything done during the day? If you ask yourself what you did instead to fill up the time, you may be surprised at what you find. These little activities that consume our time, are called time wasters. We often do not sit around and consciously think about how to waste our time and our day. Instead, time wasters creep in through our boredom, distraction, lack of schedule or purpose, etc. Time wasters are exactly what the name means, they waste our time and distract us from accomplishing what we need to be doing. If you are looking to make the most of your day, time wasters are a good place to start. Here is a list of 10 common ways that we waste our time:
- Complaining
- Online distractions
- Worrying
- Waiting around instead of acting
- Watching too much Television
- Not having a plan
- Checking our phone
- Repeating the same mistakes
- Being indecisive
- Completing everything ourselves instead of asking for help
Any and all of these are easy to fall into doing. This list is far from complete and your time wasters could be something entirely different. It is best to be aware of time wasters and be able to catch yourself in the act. Then you can stop wasting your time and work toward being productive. Learn your time wasters today and become time efficient!
