DEAD TIME vs ALIVE TIME - 3 things you should never forget about THE VALUE OF TIME |
|
The REAL VALUE OF TIME. Ryan Holiday always speaks about a concept he learned from his mentor Robert Greene: the difference between DEAD TIME and ALIVE TIME.
We already know that time is free, but how aware are we about the fact that it’s priceless? I think the real currency in life is a mix between happiness, empathy and connection, but the question is: how much of our free time is spent there? We hear a lot that we all get the same 24 hours but we spend those minutes very differently but how conscious are we about that? We have 1 hour to gossip about our co-workers, but we don’t find 20 minutes to read a story to our children before they go to sleep. We have 20 minutes to scroll down the Instagram feed but we don’t find 5 minutes to play with our dog who waited for us for an entire day. We find 10 minutes to call our parents, but we use 8 of those minutes to complain instead of listening to those who have less time left than we do.
