Imagine you never had to sleep, what would you do with the extra time you gained? List some the things and explain why you’d do them and how the extra time would impact your life.
Too much to do and too little time. That's my current life if you ask me.
Lately, more specifically since the start of this month, I have been embarking on a personal project of mine and it turned out to be more physically and mentally draining than I expected. In any case, I will be seeing it through till completion, but in the mean time, I have to juggle my time between various aspects of my life. (If you find that I am quieter on Hive, that's probably because I have other priorities to attend to. :P)
Back to the prompt, I find such questions do make us examine our lives and reflect on what are the most important things that we want, which in turn also shows what are the "not-so-important" things that we are okay to let go.
So if I had 6 to 7 more hours a day, here's what I would do:
I would work longer hours for more income. At my current age (mid 30s), I think it's okay to work a little harder and accumulate more savings for the later part of my life. Hopefully that translates to a more comfortable life later on. Perhaps 2 to 3 more hours on weekdays should be reasonable.
I would meet up and connect with people more. Hopefully people around me also don't have to sleep too, and it would definitely be easier to find common slots to catch up over coffee and have more social interaction apart from just family, close friends and colleagues. That shouldn't take up more than 2 hours a day.
I would exercise more. I do exercise once in a while, but sometimes, it's really hard to drag myself to the gym after a long day at work (not sure how many of you feel the same way). At times, I am disciplined enough, but some days, I just go easy on myself. Hopefully with more time, I could make better use of my gym membership, haha!
As for the remaining extra hours, I would just "idle" away. Idle in the sense that it's really doing more of what I am currently doing, which I enjoy very much anyway, be it watching Youtube and sometimes Netflix, playing Splinterlands, writing posts on Hive or just random stories, paying more attention to what's happening in the world, etc.
With that, that's all for my sharing. Do let me know if you have any interesting ideas to use the extra hours too! Have a pleasant week ahead!
