What does this phrase mean? Are you not living your life every day and simply a quick tool for completing tasks?
If you feel like everyday life is pressing on you and days seem to blur into one gray mass of completing task after task despite your intentions to take more time for yourself, then ask yourself:
๐ธ๐ฉ๐บ ๐ข๐ฎ ๐ ๐ฏ๐ฐ๐ต ๐ญ๐ช๐ท๐ช๐ฏ๐จ ๐ช๐ฏ ๐ข ๐ธ๐ข๐บ ๐ธ๐ฉ๐ฆ๐ณ๐ฆ ๐ฆ๐ท๐ฆ๐ณ๐บ ๐ฅ๐ข๐บ ๐ง๐ฆ๐ฆ๐ญ๐ด ๐ญ๐ช๐ฌ๐ฆ ๐ฎ๐บ ๐ฅ๐ฆ๐ด๐ช๐ณ๐ฆ๐ฅ ๐ญ๐ช๐ง๐ฆ?
Life is about self-management, making choices, and taking responsibility for fulfilling your deeper goals.
If you’re not doing things that have meaning for you, then it’s wasting life. Everyday life and tasks are part of everyone’s lives, but the question is how we relate to them, and if they feel burdensome or tedious, then it means something needs to change.
The prerequisite for change is knowing deeply what you truly want and what is the first step you take to change it.
โข If everyday life involves taking care of children before the workday, then remember, that time in the car is an opportunity to improve your relationship with them – you likely wanted children and a good relationship with them โ what a great opportunity to develop it, get to know them.
โข Or if you’re stuck in traffic, use it as quality time with your partner or listen to an educational podcast or just be with your own thoughts, ask yourself some big questions about life and simply observe the answers that come.
โข Use the time in traffic or standing in line at the store to learn to quiet your thoughts, observe people, learn empathy, etc.
โข Or if (some) work tasks seem boring routines, ask yourself how they help you achieve your bigger goals and dreams in your life. And are those dreams and bigger goals your own or someone else’s? Do I really HAVE to do things or am I actually doing them because I want to please someone or does this work lead me to somewhere where is my goal?

If you can’t change the perspective, change the situation โ explore if you really want that thing in your life or develop your skills or ask for help, or empower someone else to do something etc.
