Do you think you have enough time for yourself?

[Tarifa]

We're all absorbed in everyday tasks like work, studies, taking care of kids (if any), running around from point A to point B, fighting traffic... It takes up so much time that more often than not we're left with a feeling of not having enough time for ourselves.

Do you take time off and grant yourself time to do things you like? Or just spend a few minutes or an hour a day to reflect on things and recharge your own batteries? What do you do or where do you go to?

I absolutely do.

Every Wednesday is self indulgence day, no chores - no errands, no nothing. Except for a one small 5 hour shift 1x a month. I sit down and plan my day every morning, journal every evening. I make sure to "reward" myself after a productive day, if that just be with a podcast and little knitting on the couch - a small face mask or amazing dinner with my partner, depends on the tasks of the day.

I looked forward to this time during my whole life... retirement.
I wouldn't have plenty of time on my hands, but since the love of my life passed away, I have plenty of time now to do what I want to do.
Thank God I enjoy my own company.
There will come a day for you when you retire and your life as it is now will be just a blur. Hold on to your memories now and don't ever forget them.

Thank you for the MHO 😀 💓

I always do. I make a purposeful point of making time for myself. I think it's incredibly important because otherwise you will eventually build up a lot of internal frustration or stagnation that will interfere with your daily interactions and influence your ability to deal with everyday commitments. So to answer your question

It is not that difficult if you learn how to multitask. You can accomplish a lot in one day once you know how.

Yes. As the old saying goes, "If you want something done, ask a busy person". They have managed how to manage their time to greatest advantage. Eliminate the 20% of the junk that eats up 80% of your time. Thank you, Mr. Pareto.

i wake up very early so i usually have an hour or 2 to myself to get my coffee and look at my phone before Fiancé wakes up, it's very peaceful

[BCRanger10]

I usually try to take about 15 or 20 minutes at the end of each day to read or have a drink or something like that.

I am retired and only work part time. Still, I have a lot of other duties and find it hard to even set some time aside to take a ride to the beach,

[Phoenix98]
