(3 Tips On How to Manage your Golden Time)
Do you sometimes wonder bakit may mga tao na sa kanilang murang edad, ay marami nang na-accomplish sa buhay?
or
Do you sometimes think about how a millionaire or a wealthy man makes use of his/her time daily?
Dumating ang pinsan ko kagabi at dala niya ang kanyang lumang Iphone, meron na siyang Iphone 5, at pinakita sa akin ang lumang version ng Iphone. Kung gusto ko daw hiramin, ok lang.
Wala akong Iphone, and didn't want to spend big bucks on phones, dahil marami na akong nawalang phone before, sayang naman.
Dala lang niya, so I looked at it, at ang daming games, may Coindozer, Bejeweled, at Plants and Zombies.
Aba, naglaro ako ng Plants Vs Zombies, mga alas- 10 ng umaga na. Sa una mga15 minutes, na naging 30 minutes.
Mga ilang sandali, sumisigaw na ang nanay ko na kakain na, tumingin ako saglit sa orasan, alas-dose na ng tanghali! Dalawang oras na akong naglalaro ng Plants Vs Zombies. I shouted back at sabi ko sa nanay ko sa ibaba, dahil nasa itaas ako ng bahay na saglit lang at bababa na. Makailang ulit pa siya sa pagtawag na kumain na ako, nang marinig ko ang sarili kong tiyan na kumukulog. Nagugutom na ako, I looked at the clock aba! Alas- dos na ng hapon! Dali-dali kong ibinaba ang cellphone at bumaba para kumain.
While eating, I felt guilty of a crime and as if I sinned greatly on my morals sa pag-ubos ng buong maghapon ko sa pag-gegames.
Binalik ko sa pinsan ko ang phone and said that I didn't want to borrow the phone ever!
I remember long long time ago, when I was in my teens or early 20s pa, na na-adik ako sa paglalaro ng games sa phone at sa computer. As in ADIK!
But now, that I have got more important goals and dreams, I have commited myself to work on those goals and priorities, if not using my precious time spending quality moments to improve my relationship with my family or friends.
I read on a popular study that, an hour or two average each day na paglalaro ng games o panonood ng TV in your lifetime (from 10 yrs- 65 yrs old) means about 2 months o 67 Days na walang tulugan at tuloy-tuloy na pagwe-waste ng iyong oras ang nawala sa buhay mo, na maaaring you would have done something better to improve in yourself, like reading books or articles and listening to audio programs.
DALAWANG BUWAN sa lifetime mo spent on playing non-sense, useless, ridiculous activities like online games, pagtitig sa status updates at current photos ng friend mo sa FB o panonood ng teleserye sa TV.
Aminin na natin na may mga panahon na hindi lamang isa o dalawang oras ang nauubos. May friend ako na nag-uubos ng maghapon sa pag-lalaro ng counter strike. O yung isa ko pang friend na adik sa Facebook, Twitter, pag-post ng photos at status updates, etc.
Baka sa marami pang tao, hindi lang umuubos ng Dalawang buwan, maybe close to one year (ISANG TAON) na ito lamang ang ginagawa. I am very sad. Very, very sad. I sympathize because sometime in my life I was once also got addicted to online games, watching Mexican Novelas (dati!), o ngayon Koreanovelas, etc.
But why do you fill your time doing these things?
Answer: Because you haven't got any direction on what to do with your time.
Ang pinakamahalaga sa isang tao, I realized ay ang kanyang oras. Kung gusto mo yumaman, o maging milyonaryo, magiging sensitibo ka sa kung anong tasks o activities ang taking up most of your time. Really, TIME IS GOLD.
Meron akong Tatlong Paraan Para I-Manage ng Tama ang Iyong Oras.
1. Pag-gising sa umaga, kumuha ng papel o pumunit kahit scratch paper at bolpen, at isulat ang 3 o higit pa na main tasks na dapat mong gawin sa araw na iyon. Magdagdag sa listahan mo ng minor
tasks na dapat tapusin sa araw na iyon. Can be an assignment for yourself like finishing a chapter of a book, o doing your 50 sit-ups, o finishing a project (website o deadline sa work) o learning a new language o praying and bible reflection!
2. Kahit na anong mangyari, tapusin at gawin ang mga nilistang main o priority tasks bago mag-jump sa mga minor tasks. Don't get yourself distracted, Just Do It!
3. Don't get distracted! Un-install games on your PC and mobile phones. Limit or stop watching TV!
I've spoken recently to a 50 Years old lady who looked at me with all her sincerity and regret that if only she could turn back the time and be at my age, and used time in her past wisely doing the most important things. In all honesty, you know for a fact what those important things are.
- Meeting new friends and developing quality relationships with your friends and family
- Investing on your mind by attending seminars/ workshops for skills- building or reading books
- Write business plans and executing it
- Adding other income streams aside from current work (buy and sell online, investing in stocks/ mutual funds)
- Write Books/ Blogs
- Travel the world and exotic places
- You name it!
Life is really short. Let me share with you some Bible verses to reflect on:
Psalm 90:12 ESV
So teach us to number our days that we may get a heart of wisdom.
Ephesians 5:15-17 ESV
Look carefully then how you walk, not as unwise but as wise, making the best use of the time, because the days are evil. Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the will of the Lord is.
