STORY TIME!!!
For some reasons at my work place today, we had to stay for like over 6 hours without working. At some point some of us were already praying for a work free day. because it is actually rare to have a day where we spend that amount of time without working.
During this long hours of waiting some took the advantage to settle one or two things they had to settle. Some resulted to watching movies, to some they had to take a walk around the office environment, some were dancing and recording videos on their phones and so on. However for me it was a different feeling entirely all that was in my mind at this point was WHAT can I do to profit myself, WHAT something of value can I engage in, WHAT can I do to maximize this golden opportunity. A lot of WHAT's and for some minutes I stayed thinking on what I can do. This became a burden to me because data was not a problem as I have all the access to data to search, read, and research whatever I want.
So while I was still thinking, I quickly remembered I needed to learn a particular skill in graphics design. Without wasting time I quickly dived into YouTube and began learning. Oh my God!!! it was such a great experience for me as I got to learn things I would've literally paid some amount of money to learn from others but guess what! I got to learn it for free today. I didn't just learnt for free but value was added. I felt fulfilled for the day and knowledge was well captured.
Why am I sharing this, you see it is not every free time that is meant for play time or fun time. There are some moments you don't joke with. Some moments are divine and come to us for a particular reason and when we missed those moments we may never recover it again. Now that you still have that time I beg you not waste it on things that adds little or no value to your life. Many people have missed the opportunity of becoming better because they fail to invest in themselves. Use that free to develop on yourself, add value to your life and watch the world celebrate you.
A wise man once said that you don't waste time but you only waste when you fail to make use of time. I pray we don't waste.
Make it a declaration. I WIIL NOT WASTE
Until I come your way next time,
Please like, comment and share
God Bless you!!!
