All the bull in the world, is a pile of time

There is a particularly interesting phenomenon in life. Many people with the same starting point gradually lead very different lives. The reason is that each person has a different attitude towards time.

Facing time, what kind of attitude we have, will have what kind of life.

Each person's day is not always 24 hours.

British writer Huxley said: "Time is the justest, to anyone is twenty-four hours; time is also the most private, to anyone is not twenty-four hours."

People often say that the fairest thing in the world is time, which gives everyone 24 hours a day.

Time is the most cunning. It seems to give everyone the same length of time every day, but secretly it makes everyone get a different length of time according to each person's attitude.

Before reading an article called "time is not fair to everyone", the author told the story of dinner with a few friends.

Whenever friends get together, there is always one person at the table who does not "fit in".

While others have a glass of wine and talk without restraint, she has been busy with several things, eating, chatting with everyone at the table, operating two micro-signal processing work ...

Even so, she still handled everything beautifully and didn't let people think she neglected her friends because she was busy with other matters.

Every time I see her, the author can't help but feel: "Her behavior scares me. What scares me is not my ability, but that moment I suddenly feel as if everyone's time is not equal."

This phenomenon happens in life from time to time.

On that day, some people can't wait to break time and spend ten or twenty hours trying to improve themselves.

Don't be distracted for a moment when you're trying hard; do chores, expand your life interests, and don't dare to waste a moment.

But some people are often lazy even with the most basic work, free time can endlessly chat, play, and sleep.

This way the former lives a full life, and the latter wastes time. Although everyone has 24 hours a day, the real effective duration varies.

As the Russian historian, Rybakov said, "People who count time in 'minutes' have 59 times more time than people who count time in 'hours'."

Time is especially valuable. If you waste a minute, you will lose sixty seconds.

We have to use our limited time to keep increasing our thickness, repeatedly expanding our boundaries, and making life infinitely longer.

Time widens the gap between people.

There is such a classic story.

The hare and the tortoise were racing and were complacent because he was faster than the tortoise. When the race began, both men were not shy. The hare ran fast and the tortoise crawled desperately. Soon, the hare was far ahead of the tortoise. Seeing that he was ahead of the others, the hare decided to take a nap first. As a result, it woke up and the tortoise crawled to the finish line and won. Everyone knew that the hare was defeated by his lazy attitude. But to be more precise, the hare lost time because of laziness.

When you think about it, it is not difficult to find that their participation time is different. While the hare spent most of the time sleeping, the tortoise kept crawling forward from beginning to end.

In this way, even though the tortoise is a little slower, it has a lot more effective time and it will inevitably surpass the hare.

This kind of thing happens to us.

Originally the same ability of people, after some time, some people are promoted and get a raise, and some people are still doing nothing.

Over time, some people buy a car, buy a house, the days are getting better and better, and some people have not been good, living a mediocre life all day.

The reason is that everyone treats time differently, leading to a gap.

The more people who know how to use their time, the more comfortable their lives will be. And those who get by and do nothing all day are doomed to get worse and worse.

As Shakespeare said, "He who gives up time, time gives up him."

When Xu Zhiyuan interviewed the immortal goddess Hitomi Kuroki, he mentioned a question that struck me.

Xu Zhiyuan asked, "What was the last time you failed?"

After thinking about it, Hitomi Kuroki said, "I overslept."

She said it was the first time she had overslept in over 30 years, and the last time she overslept was when she was in her twenties.

Some people may be surprised to hear that. Are people that hard on themselves?

Many people are so "attentive" to time: Marissa, the former CEO of Yahoo, sleeps only 4-6 hours a day; Apple CEO, Cook starts working on emails at 4:30 every morning; Jack, the founder of Twitter, has to work at least 16 hours a day...

In this world, some people are successful, but they still dare not neglect every minute. They are constantly cultivating themselves and expanding their interests.

Some people are mediocre and wasteful.

I can't help but think of a quote by Schopenhauer: "Ordinary people think only of how to spend their time; talented people manage to make use of it."

Time will bring endless power to the diligent person.

Only by living up to every inch of time and spending every minute in the right place can our lives improve and get better.

The end of time is a success.

The book "Alien" has this to say: "What people see as a genius is remarkable, not because he is superior in talent, but because he is constantly working hard. Ten thousand hours of grinding is necessary for anyone to go from ordinary to world master."

A cherry blossom survives winter to bloom; a caterpillar can only break into a butterfly after suffering.

This kind of life has never opened in the world; it is nothing but a slow arrival at the top.

Remember once someone asked Edison what the elements of success were, Edison replied: "I do things all day long. If I get up at 7 a.m. and go to bed at 11 p.m., then I do everything for 16 hours."

You know those great people we envy are just piled up in the long river of time, they become "genius" in the eyes of everyone.

Who wants to change the status quo, the only way is to endure.

Steady your mind, stay calm, spend more time improving yourself, treat your life with care, and refine your skills with patience.

Through the accumulation of time, when we endure enough time and effort, we will eventually become the best version of ourselves and have a better life.

Because time is all-powerful.

Find your own time

Educator Terry Hsu said, "If you want to make a career out of it, you must value your time and make the most of it."

I'm impressed. Although not everyone in the world can become something great, everyone has to run his or her life well.

Only by finding your time, making the most of it, and constantly learning about yourself can you achieve a senior life.

Always focus on one goal.

Sometimes, a large part of our time is wasted on redundant things.

When you do one thing, you can't focus all your energy on one thing. The result is that one thing doesn't get done, another doesn't get done well, and time and energy are wasted.

Try to focus on one goal at a time and restart a new one when that thing is solved.

This way things will be solved one by one in an organized rhythm.

As the French writer, Antoine de Saint-Exupéry said, "Perfection does not mean to stop adding something, but to stop cutting something."

Let time create "muscle memory"

As the saying goes, everything must have a rule.

Muscle memory is the creation of a standardized process for all the time we can control.

For example, when there are no special circumstances, we leave work for 8 hours a day, go home and cook, then exercise, then eat, wash up, and finally read and study.

When we establish a good template, after a long period of repetition, we will form a reflex, so that every day we consciously follow a "systematic" process.

This reduces the time lost in thinking about what to do before we do something.

In the long run, our effective time will gradually increase.

All time management is self-discipline.

There is a saying circulating on the Internet: "I believe in the 10,000-hour law, but I never believe in the pie-in-the-sky inspiration and waiting for achievement."

The theory is good, not put into action is empty talk; time is strong, you are lazy, are nothing.

As the saying goes, the sky does not span people, people need to span themselves.

Time is equal to people, but the value of time in the hands of each person is not the same.

We can only be ruthless, constantly adjust ourselves, regulate ourselves, and force ourselves to do something that adds value to ourselves.

It may be a little boring at first, but please believe that as time goes by, every minute of our efforts will eventually turn from quantitative to qualitative change and become the capital and confidence for a happy life in the future.

As the saying goes: Time never fails any effort, unless you fail.
