Life is Too Short to Waste Any of It
15 Things to Stop Doing Now
Don’t waste your life. Like the morning mist, a fading rainbow, a warm breath, a heartbeat. Here one minute, gone the next. It could be you or it could be someone you love. Gone forever.
Life is too short to waste any of it, and yet that’s exactly what we do. We waste our time on useless, nonsense things. Things of no benefit to you or anyone else.
Here is my list of 15 time-wasting things to stop doing immediately because life is simply too short.
1. Life is too short to spend your time trying to live up to other people’s expectations
What do people want from you? What do you want for yourself? You don’t have to get a consensus on how to live your life. Concentrate instead on the expectations you have of and for yourself, and by the same token, let others do the same for themselves.
2. Life is too short to ignore taking care of your health
You have one body and just like a car or other exquisite piece of machinery, regular maintenance is key to longevity. The better your health, the greater your quality of life, present and future.
