SourceSometimes, most people are so caught up in their day to day lives that they barely have time to spend with loved ones, family and friends or even engaged in extracurricular activities or stuff they love. It seems we are always busy, we always have things to do. In my own case, I just feel like time runs so fast. I even wonder if I have 24 hours in my own day compared to others. It just seems there's always so much to do. I think we all need to take time off life sometimes.
By "taking time off life" I don't mean you shut yourself out of the World completely but rather more in the sense of dropping most of your responsibilities in life, some distractions and other things that keep you so busy. Just like when you take time off work, do the same in all other areas you are involved in and take that time to reflect, assess yourself to see if you're still following the game plan you made for yourself.
Shut out the media and most especially putting away your phone during this time could do wonders. I remember taking a time off life as I put it not too long ago and the area I really wanted time off from was social media. I put up a notice informing most people I will not be available. It lasted just a brief period of 2 weeks but that 2 weeks yielded some outstanding physical, mental, emotional and spiritual results. For example in a spiritual sense, I was so occupied every time trying to do more for the Lord in my local Church, but was falling short in spending quiet moments with the Lord in my personal place of prayer, meditation etc.
SourceI was busy serving while ignoring the one I am trying to serve and by so doing was just serving myself. We are so busy with life, trying to solve issues in our life with little success. I tell you what? The place where you take time off can just be the perfect place for inspiration, new ideas, answers and so much more. Some people might think it a waste of time but it is not. Remember one of those days in college you had an assignment and you tried everything to solve it and you could not get it right. Then you leave it and try to relax a bit and distract yourself with something fun and while doing it, boom the idea on how to go about it just comes?
That is what taking time off life sometimes can do. It can be the solution to that problem you are desperately trying so hard to solve. Take a step back, sit back and just relax. Shut out some of these things that distract you, the news, media etc. Shut all that out and take a good quality me time. You can do something you really love and that makes you feel relaxed. Do that and rediscover a new you, bursting with a lot of energy and new ideas.
