We live in an era where food that used to take hours to obtain can now be delivered to your door in less than 30 minutes. Never before in human history have we had so much free time on our hands as we do now. Unfortunately, the majority of us waste it. We turn on the television or our gaming console. We medicate ourselves with weed, alcohol, drugs, and pornography to pass the time. What a colossal waste. What exactly should you be doing with all of your free time? So, if you’re even a bit serious about becoming a winner in life, here are the four most important things you should focus on.
Number one, exercise. This first task is critical because, with so much free time on our hands, we need to be active during this time. We used to move around and lift things a few centuries ago. Whether tending to the farms or making tools in the workshop, almost all our jobs required us to work out our bodies. However, the majority of us now work behind computer screens and registers. We are not getting the necessary amount of exercise for our bodies to function properly. Studies have shown that people who exercise have more energy throughout the day. If you lack energy, you will spend most of your free time doing things like Netflix and gaming. Starting with a simple workout program like starting strength will get you started on improving your fitness and gaining more energy throughout the day.
Number two, reading. I know you’ve probably heard this advice a hundred times before, but bear with me. What you’re learning in school is out of date. Most of what you’re learning there will be useless once you graduate. This means that most people have no idea what they’re doing. Real-life skills such as managing finances, social skills, dating, diet, and fitness are virtually non-existent among the general population. And this, in my opinion, is a very good thing for you. This means you’ll easily rise to the top because your competition stinks. A well-known entrepreneur once stated that you could become an expert in any field by reading only three books on the subject. You could learn more about any subject than 99% of the population by simply reading three books. Look, if you want to succeed in life, you must first read the instruction manual. Concentrate your reading on self-development books because they provide practical knowledge that can be applied in everyday situations.
Number three, meditation. Meditation is one of those things that has been proven to be extremely beneficial a hundred times over. But no one does it. Why? On the surface, it’s probably one of the most tedious tasks available. You just sit there and do nothing, right? There’s a lot more to it than that. You are actually training your brain when you meditate. You learn to control which thoughts you focus on and which you ignore. This is a critical skill for becoming a happier person. You will also have significantly more mental energy throughout the day. It’s so important, in fact, that if you asked me which one habit could change your life, I’d say meditation. Just ten minutes of meditation a day is more than enough to reap the benefits. You can check out my video down in the description on how to meditate.
Number four, hobby or passion. I firmly believe that everyone has a passion that brings out their inner child. It’s something that makes you feel a little giddy. Instead of dreading the time spent on it, you become immersed in it. This is the last task because the other three will supplement your ability to work on your hobby or passion. Reading provides you with the knowledge you need to advance in your hobby. Meditation clears your mind for creativity, and exercise gives your body the energy to focus on this hobby even after a long day at work. This hobby is your source of fulfillment, whether it’s dance, art, writing, or starting your own Make a Wish Foundation. You will not feel complete without it. You will feel as if something is missing from your life. And it is my firm belief that if you devote enough time and effort to your hobby, it can eventually become a source of income. Once you reach this point, your life will shift from one of dread to one of excitement.
That’s it, guys. These four tasks are, in my opinion, the four most important things you should prioritize in your spare time. Check out my channel brain pill for more in-depth videos if you want a more detailed breakdown of any of these.
