Wasting time is something I am good at doing. I’m even better at allowing that wasted time to bother me and affect my mood as I continue working through the day. It usually leads to me wasting even more time.
The time that has passed is time that is gone. I have been trying to use it as a reminder to take advantage of each moment I have and not worry about the context of how this hour or that hour fits into my day of work.
When I start feeling like I am falling behind, that’s when wasted time negatively affects me. But you’re only falling behind if you’re wasting time focusing on the time you’ve already wasted. Use this moment right now well, that’s all you can do.
