Week after week passes by in constant fuss, and behind all of this we often miss the most important things. Yet it can take years to understand this. Years we could spend quite differently, with greater benefits.
Many people are engaged in a destructive relationship because they’re afraid of being alone. Yet dozens of years later it becomes clear that it’s better to be alone than to live with a person who brings a lot of disappointment, pain, and offenses.
In the cycle of work and home duties, many of us pay very little attention to our loved ones. Unfortunately, we often understand this at a tragic time: children grow up and start an independent life, warm relationships with spouses disappear, something tragic happens to parents.
Watching TV shows, chatting in social networks, games on the phone — all of it takes an impressive amount of time. Yet you could spend it on much more useful things and thereby significantly improve the quality of your life.
We ruin our health when we give in to temptations every day and have bad habits. And even if our health seems to be ok now, after a while we’ll most likely feel the consequences of such a frivolous attitude toward it.

We often continue to work in a place we hate only because of our own indecisiveness and unwillingness to leave our comfort zone. Yet if we don’t risk and change something in our lives, we can simply fade away in a job we’re not interested in.
If you don’t take any steps to make your desires come true, everything will remain just a fantasy. If you wait for the perfect conditions for all your life, you may never have a chance.
It feels like the "Wasted a lot of time" and "Worked too much" entries sort of contradict each other. But yeah, I don't like that double standard. That you need to work hard in order to enjoy the free time you're simultaneously not supposed to have.
Running marathons, taking pointless self improvement courses and working too much takes an impressive amount of time. Yet you could spend it on things that actually give you enjoyment like watching TV shows, chatting in social networks and playing games and thereby significantly improve the quality of your life.
