I’ve been thinking about this topic a lot lately. A lot of people believe money is their most important resource, but that thought is misguided. The most important resource is time.
You can always get more money through various ventures, but once time is gone, it’s gone forever. You can’t buy or borrow time so it’s limited. Even worse that limited resource expires every second, minute and day without hesitation.
Even worse everything in life such as other people are more than willing to take your time. Think about your job, I know I’m starting to notice it more. How often are you asked to work extra hours and attend another meeting that has no purpose other than eating away at your most valuable resource. We need to be vigilant at guarding this time. It means finding every possible way to free yourself from obligations such as debt, 9-5s and things you don’t value.
I’ve been actively thinking about these things and hope that Hive give my the freedom I crave. I enjoy my time in this ecosystem and hopefully that will pay off my debts and afford me the opportunity to live off what I love. Blogging, gaming and making connections vs. sitting at a desk on some else’s schedule. I invite you along on my journey as we should all strive to gain our finical and time independence.
This is a post that I have written a few times myself. We are all here hoping that hive will give us the freedom to choose how we spend our time in the future.
At the moment most of us are tied down by lack of money to have full freedom but if we can generate enough passive income that will all change.
How we spend our time is key to the idea.
It’s not talked about enough. We are all driven to 9-5s, kids, and obligations that are meant to keep us from being able to break the cycle.
We were just discussing this today..... I don't think most people realize this until they reach a certain point in life! Time, and good health are everything!😀
I was just talking about this very subject with my wife this weekend. I was trying to figure out why we don't change our thinking. It's not easy to quite the 9-5 mentality in a cold turkey fashion. Consistent, small steps need to be taken to achieve freedom of time, over a period of time. I have been taking small steps to ensure I can one day break away from this reality I fell into long ago. I think with some dedication and drive, it can be done.
Time IS our most valuable Resource.. How are you going to spend it?! Your spot on with your post! Thanks for the advice and awareness. 😊
You are right the time in our disposition is priceless.
