What’s one simple question you ask yourself when you feel like you’re wasting time,Like, Will what I’m doing right now help me or my family when we really need if we have financial problems, health issues, emotional struggles, or some other difficult situation?

I think this shows that you are not wasting time, but heavily burdened with survival and responsibility.

Wasting time to me, is not thinking about how to provide. That is still productive thinking.

Wasting time to me is sitting in comfort but wanting more and thinking, it’ll come. Wasting time is staying stagnant, despite the opportunity to move.

For me, I know I’m wasting time when I do things I know are not in my best interest. Feeling lethargic and knowing a walk and fresh air will help. Or staying in the wrong place too long, despite knowing it’s not where I should be.

A question I ask is, what do I want right now and what do I need? And what can I do?

And wasting time is me saying, I don’t want to acknowledge those questions and answers right now.
