What have you learned about yourself recently?

I couldn’t help heaving a sigh as I found this question on Instagram. But this is something that, I think, I have to answer as my way of confronting myself in some ways.

This is what I’ve learned ー time should never be held accountable for the things that I’ve never done in my life.

They were right. We all have the same 24 hours a day to work with, to think things through, to use it to do what we can to take steps in fulfilling our dreams. But I kept on blaming the lack of time for the things I’ve never done in a day.

Even if I do have the time, I kept on doing other things to distract me more and kept my attention away from what I have to do for the day. The more it happens, the more I’m starting to hate myself for that. I don’t want that, so I’m doing my best to remove that thought. I’ve had enough of overthinking that leads to self-loathing, at times.

Time is just there, continuously moving forward. The only problem I have is the drive to force myself to do it. And at the time, I’m struggling to find that drive in me. I have to do something about this.
