Why Is Our FREE-TIME MORE Important Than Our 9-5 Work?

Why Is Our FREE-TIME MORE Important Than Our 9-5 Work?


Why Is Our FREE-TIME MORE Important Than Our 9-5 Work?  Before I get accused and/or bashed that I am inciting unproductiveness OR inefficiency at work, allow me to pre-empt such brickbats.  BECAUSE at work, we're more efficient because of work procedures.  BECAUSE at work, we're more productive because of company policies. BECAUSE at work, we're more conscious because of that FEAR of losing our job.  So, our problem is managing our FREE-TIMEWHYBECAUSE we are NOT bounded by RULES in managing our FREE-TIMEBECAUSE we DON'T fear if we end wasting our FREE-TIMEBECAUSE we [wrongly] thought and think [TILL NOW] that there are NO ramifications if end up NOT efficiently utilizing our FREE-TIMEBECAUSE there are no practices or traditions in any culture that our FREE-TIME be utilized efficientlyπŸ’΅πŸ’΄πŸ’·

Now, when we think about SUCCESS at work, we tend to think about the behaviors and strategies that people manifest and exemplify at work.  We think about WHAT people do during the 9-5 working hours, and whether they extend those hours by coming in early OR staying late to tackle projects.  WHAT they do WHEN they get home, OR on weekends, WHEN they're away from the office and away from their computers, DOESN'T enter your mind.  BUT here's the thing:  IT SHOULDπŸ“—πŸ“™πŸ“˜

HOW people spend their FREE-TIME can actually have a BIG impact on their SUCCESS in their professional world.  SUCCESSFUL people tend to spend their FREE-TIME in more meaningful ways.  LIKE they read [whether it's fiction OR non-fiction] as READING is a lifelong skill.  LIKE they have hobbies.  Focusing exclusively on work MIGHT SEEM like a FAST-TRACK to SUCCESSBUT this approach has a downside.  it will stress you out and sets you up for BURNOUTπŸ“ŒπŸ“ŒπŸ“Œ

LIKE volunteering.  Volunteering, no matter WHERE or HOW you do it, it is beneficial for you and maybe, even your community.  WHETHER you're providing mentorship or a community work, your time goes a long way towards benefiting the beneficiary of your VOLUNTEER work.  I remember years ago when I had that sizable FREE-TIME, I was a Volunteer Probation Officer with the Singapore government's Ministry of Community Development.  And frankly, I felt a huge achievement for sharing my FREE-TIME with my Singaporean teenager under probation then.  And that extended to his parents as well who I gave my counselling too✅✅✅

And of course NETWORKING comes in.  There are one too many NETWORKING events outside the realm of corporate hours.  SUCCESSFUL people are willing to step outside their comfort zones in an effort to meet new people regardless of any professional circumstances.  WHY?  The wider your network is, the more opportunities you'll have down the road❗❗❗

Straight from my thought processes...
